First Scorsese and Eric RothThe co-screenwriter wanted to tell the story from the point of view of Tom White, the agent in charge of the investigation. They planned to assign this role Leonardo DiCaprio.

At some point I realized I was making a film only about white men. This means that I approached the topic from the outside, which worried me a lot – said the manager.

Scorsese and Roth then decided to rewrite the script, changing the perspective from which the story would be told. The new version focused on another hero – Ernest Burckhardt, a World War I veteran who married Molly, a member of the Osage tribe (Lily Gladstone) She acquires the right to dispose of her property. The role of Ernesto eventually went to DiCaprio, who played Tom White – and was reduced to a supporting character – Jesse Plemons.
