Before we get to the news…best headline ever, right? These are the things movie fans dream about hearing about.

In February of this year, word came out of the Berlin Film Festival that legendary director Martin Scorsese was working on a new mob movie called The Irishman with Robert De Niro, re-teaming the duo responsible for creating one of the great mob movies of all time in Goodfellas. The only thing about this movie, was that it would be more of a reflection film, with an old mobster looking back on his life of crime. The movie will be based on the book I Heard You Paint Houses by Charles Brandt, which details the life of Frank “the Irishman” Sheeran — one of the prime suspects in the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa — as told by the Irishman himself.

It looks like film legends Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro will once again team up and make themselves a movie.

The duo reportedly will work on an adaptation of the Charles Brandt novel I Heard You Paint Houses, which is the true accounts of mob hitman Frank “the Irishman” Sheeran (De Niro’s character) who befriended and has admitted to the murder of Jimmy Hoffa. The mob-term “Paint Houses” refers to the blood splatter on the walls during a murder.

The movie is being written by Steve Zaillian, who wrote Gangs of New York for Scorsese and has also written American Gangster and Schindler’s List among many others.
