With a little help from de-aging technology applied to the film’s star, we get to see Robert De Niro as mob enforcer Frank Sheeran from his mid-20s to his 80s. The film also stars Joe Pesci as the ruthless crime syndicate boss, Russell Bufalino, and Al Pacino as Jimmy Hoffa.

The trailer dropped during The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Wednesday night. De Niro spoke with Fallon about the de-aging process saying, “They didn’t want it to get in our way. And Marty didn’t want that … They had all kinds of cameras taking pictures, a special camera photographing us.”

The Irishman was penned by Schinder’s List and Gangs of New York scribe Steven Zaillia. Ray Romano, Bobby Cannavale, Anna Paquin, and Jesse Plemons also star in the film. 

The Irishman premieres on Netflix November 27. Watch the trailer below!

Director and selection committee chair Kent Jones described Scorsese’s latest directorial effort as “rich, funny, troubling, entertaining and absolutely singular” film, and couldn’t wait to share the amazing news with the public.

“It’s the work of masters, made with a command of the art of cinema that I’ve seen very rarely in my lifetime, and it plays out at a level of subtlety and human intimacy that truly stunned me. All I can say is that the minute it was over my immediate reaction was that I wanted to watch it all over again,” said Jones in a press release.

The Irishman will open the festival on September 27th, and its theatrical release date is yet to be set.

Scorsese’s passion project centers on hitman Frank Sheeran and the crucial moments that defined his mob career. It stars Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci, and Bobby Cannavale.

The Hollywood A-lister is in talks to join The Hunt, a Nazi hunting series created by David Weil. 

The Hunt received a straight-to-series 10-episode order form Amazon in May. Weil will also write and executive produce. The series is produced by Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions and Sonar Entertainment. Nikki Toscano also serves as executive producer and will showrun with Weil.

The Hunt follows a band of Nazi hunters in New York City circa 1977. They discover that hundreds of high-ranking Nazi officials have made a home in the United States and plan to create a Fourth Reich there, then set out on to hunt and stop them.

If he inks the deal this will be the Oscar-winner’s television debut. Should he join, he will play a veteran Nazi hunter who mentors the character played by Logan Lerman.

Radford revealed Pacino has been toying with the idea of playing this character for some time. The Oscar-winning actor finally feels he’s up for the challenge, and producer Barry Navidi seems to agree.

“Before, we had the passion and the desire, but we never had a start date. We all have the energy to do King Lear now. Michael and Al are going to stick to the original poetry. We’re creating, hopefully, an epic,” said Navidi.

The big screen adaptation of Shakespearean tragedy isn’t the only exciting project Al Pacino is working on right now. He’ll team up with his Godfather co-star Robert De Niro on the set of The Irishman, and play the agent of Leonardo DiCaprio’s character in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

De Niro plays the role of Frank Sheeran,  a mob hitman who is suspected to be associated with the Bufalino crime family and alleged killer of Jimmy Hoffa, a labor union chief who went missing in the 1970s. It is said that Sheeran carried out 25 murders throughout his life as a hitman, according to Metro.

De Niro was seen wearing shoes with thick platform to help combat his shortness. He is 5.8 feet inches in real life, only an inch taller than Pacino, who portrays Hoffa in the film.

Sheeran, nicknamed “The Irishman,” and Hoffa had a big height difference so De Niro had to wear a special pair of shoes to tower over Pacino.

De Niro and Pacino have both starred in The Godfather: Part II in 1970s, Heat in 1995 and Righteous Kill in 2008.

The upcoming film, which is due for release in 2018, marks a reunion between De Niro, Scorsese, and Joe Pesci. The crime drama also stars Anna Paquin and Bobby Cannavale. The project is based on the book, I Heard You Paint Houses by Charles Brand, released in 2004.
