Fresh off of their success with director
Martin Scorsese's
The Departed, star
Leonardo DiCaprio and screenwriter
William Monahan team with director
Ridley Scott for this screen adaptation of
David Ignatius' novel
Body of Lies. When CIA operative
Roger Ferris (
DiCaprio) uncovers evidence indicating that a major terrorist leader may be operating out of Jordan, he enlists the aid of CIA veteran
Ed Hoffman (
Russell Crowe) in infiltrating the elusive saboteur's vast underground network. During the course of his dangerous mission,
Ferris gradually comes to question how much he can trust his presumed allies -- who include not just
Hoffman, but the outwardly helpful head of Jordanian intelligence as well.
