The Wolf of Wall Street 2, which would presumably bring fans back to Jordan Belfort’s chaotic world of financial machinations, excess, and high-octane action, is apparently in development after years of conjecture. Fans begged for a continuation of Jordan Belfort’s story after the Martin Scorsese-directed original, which starred Leonardo DiCaprio, became a modern classic for its uncompromising depiction of corporate corruption and greed.

Set in a post-pandemic world, The Wolf of Wall Street 2 is expected to focus on the latest era of financial mania — cryptocurrency, NFTs, and decentralized finance — as Belfort, now wiser but no less reckless, attempts to rebuild his fortune while evading the authorities once again. The rise of digital finance will offer a new frontier for his schemes, allowing the sequel to explore uncharted waters for the character’s morally questionable antics.

Though casting has yet to be officially announced, insiders report that Leonardo DiCaprio is in talks to reprise his iconic role as Belfort, with Jonah Hill rumored to return as Donnie Azoff, Belfort’s right-hand man. Margot Robbie, whose performance as Naomi Lapaglia cemented her as a Hollywood heavyweight, is also said to be involved in discussions, fueling speculation about Naomi’s potential role in Jordan’s life after their separation in the first film.
