Robert De Niro is about to star in a brand new mob drama for Warner Bros. titled Clever Guys, with Barry Levinson (Rain Man, Sleepers, Wag The Canine) directing.
Clever Guys is a interval piece that tells the story of “Vito Genovese and Frank Costello, a pair of Italian People operating two separate crime households throughout the mid-Twentieth century. Genovese tried and didn’t assassinate Costello in 1957, although the latter wound up taking his depart from the mob after being injured throughout the try on his life.”
It’s mentioned that De Niro might be taking up each key roles within the movie. This looks as if an fascinating mission for the actor and I’m curious to see how he handles bringing these mobsters to life.
The script for the movie comes from Goodfellas scribe Nicholas Pileggi, who additionally wrote the 1985 e-book Wiseguy: Life in a Mafia Household, which is the e-book that Martin Scorsese’s Goodfellas is predicated on.
Clever Guys looks as if an fascinating sudden mission for WB, which below new president and CEO David Zaslav, who has been reducing and shelving initiatives. He’s mentioned that he’s trying to push movies that can earn cash, however Clever Guys doesn’t appear to have the makings of an enormous tentpole movie that can make a ton of cash.
Don’t get me improper, I really like mob films and this one sounds prefer it could possibly be an amazing one! However, it’s not the type of film that may entice an enormous viewers. Regardless, I’ll be wanting ahead to watching it!
