Actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, along with ace director Martin Scorsese have appeared in a new commercial for James Parker's casino City of Dreams in Manila.

In the teaser clip, DiCaprio and De Niro are competing for the same role in a movie directed by Scorsese, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"Hey fellas, you made it. Welcome to Manila," Scorsese tells the actor duo in the video.

The "Titanic" actor then asks "The Wolf of Wall Street" director: "Are we finally getting to work on a project together? Is that what's going on?" Scorsese replies: "Well, uh. Technically no."

De Niro then asks Scorsese: "We're not up for the same part?"

The 72-year-old filmmaker answers: "Technically yes," adding "the main thing is to enjoy yourselves first. And what I want you to see is where we are in Manila, because this place is incredible, it's fantastic."

When DiCaprio asks Scorsese if he and De Niro are really competing, the director responds: "It's not that you're competing, it's more like you're vying for the same part. Don't you ever vie?"

DiCaprio then tells De Niro: "I'm going to tell you something. I'm going to get this role." The 71-year-old replies: "No, I'm going to get this part."

The "Inception" actor then adds: "Oh no, you're not." followed with De Niro saying: "Oh yes, I am."

The advertisement ends with DiCaprio telling his rival: "We'll see about that."
