The film will reportedly focus on Capone at the age of 47 and his final years after a decade of imprisonment in the famed Alcatraz. When his dementia starts to take over, Capone becomes increasingly disoriented and tormented as harrowing memories of his violent past come back to haunt him.

Chronicle director Josh Trank is set to direct with filming scheduled to start in April.
