In a new ad campaign showcasing Melco-Crown resorts in Macau, famed director Martin Scorsese has his two favorite actors, Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert DeNiro compete for the leading role in his next film.

In the promotion for the City of Dreams Manila resort in the Philippines, the two actors find themselves reading from identical scripts and assume that they will finally have the chance to collaborate on a film. That is, until Scorsese informs them that they won't be working together, they'll be up against each other for the starring role.

"It's not that you're competing, it's more like you're vying for the same part. Don't you ever vie?" explains the director.

The commercial reportedly cost a whopping $70 million to produce! Check it out below
