Another Poker Movie on the Way?

Though it drew a mild reception at the box office, Rounders was a colosal smash among poker aficionados at home. Many including myself have labeled it as the driving force behind actively pursuing poker. Recently Bluff Magazine ran a story on Leonardo DiCaprio teaming up with the writers of Rounders to make a movie about online poker.
The movie would revolve around poker and its large presence in Costa Rica.
Please let this finally be a good poker movie. I like so many other poker fans have been wishing for an actual poker movie (not a movie with poker in it) that just comes close to being as good as Rounders was. If this movie can come even close – given the strong poker contingent now – it will rake in a huge amount of money.
Here is a top Rounders scene:
