Mafia cinema has been lacking that Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci aura (minus The Departed), but after 15 years, the Goodfellas tandem of De Niro and Scorsese will reunite for another gangster film. Reuters got the goods from the Academy Award-winning Director: “”Bob De Niro (and I) are talking about something that has to do with that world,” Scorsese told reporters after a press screening of Shutter Island, where the audience reaction was decidedly muted.” Gotta throw Pesci in the mix somewhere fellas. De Niro was due for another great film sooner or later.
