Though the package lists DiCaprio as a producer, it's too early to tell what his involvement might be; the project is in the very nascent stages, as the rights deal has yet to be completed. And this is hardly the first time someone's wanted to make a feature film out of the lesser-known cartoon.

The project bounced from studio to studio since 1996, with four different production teams, none of which ever took it past the design stage. It was most recently at Sony, which recently let the rights lapse back to underlying IP-owner Turner Broadcasting.

Powell starred on Ryan Murphy's TV series Scream Queensand next stars as astronaut John Glenn alongside Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monae in the space race drama Hidden Figures.

Turner Broadcasting, which owns the underlying rights to Captain Planet, is an investor in Mashable.
