I hope you're standing up for this news... because you're definitely going to doing a whole lot of sitting down when Martin Scorsese's The Irishman gets released.

The Irishman is an upcoming mob drama directed by Martin Scorsese and penned by Steve Zaillian starring Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci. And if you're not excited after just reading that sentence then I don't know what to tell you.

The duo of Scorsese and De Niro form one of the most powerful pairings in cinematic history. So getting to see them in action again is a real privilege.

Robert De Niro. Al Pacino. Joe Pesci. Harvey Keitel. No, I didn’t just create a list of some of the best actors of all time, though no doubt if I did, these names would appear in them anyway.
