Apple beat rivals such as Netflix Inc that were also interested to produce the film, the WSJ reported.

Apple declined to comment. ViacomCBS was not immediately available for comment.

"Killers of the Flower Moon" is an adaptation of the non-fiction book of the same name, by David Grann. The book is based on an FBI investigation into the killings of Native American Osages during the 1920s.

Scorsese's last film, The Irishman, was released on Netflix last year and helped the company boost its paid subscribers in the fourth quarter.
