Scorsese’s untitled Netflix drama dives into modern **Las Vegas** casino wars
Martin Scorsese is returning to the world of high-stakes Las Vegas with a new Netflix drama. The series, still untitled, will follow the ruthless power struggles inside a modern casino empire. Thirty years after 'Casino', Scorsese is again exploring the city’s mix of glamour and danger.
The show centres on Robert 'Bobby Red' Redman, a casino president fighting to expand his business. No actor has yet been cast in the lead role, and production remains in early development.
The story unfolds in present-day Las Vegas, where Bobby Red must outmanoeuvre rivals and risky bets to hold onto power. His challenges reflect the broader shift in the city’s casinos—from simple gambling dens to massive entertainment complexes. The series will track this transformation while keeping the focus on high-pressure deals and personal battles.
Behind the project are 'Billions' co-creators Brian Koppelman and David Levien, who have worked with Scorsese before. The pair wrote 'Rounders' and 'Ocean’s Thirteen', both set in the world of gambling and cons. Scorsese, serving as executive producer, adds this to his growing list of Netflix collaborations, including 'The Irishman' and 'Rolling Thunder'.
No release date, director, or full cast has been announced. The series remains in its earliest stages, with details still under wraps.
The untitled drama marks Scorsese’s return to Vegas after decades, this time with a focus on modern casino politics. Koppelman and Levien’s involvement suggests a mix of sharp dialogue and high tension. For now, fans will have to wait as the project takes shape behind the scenes.
