Back in July we saw the first trailer for The Irishman. The film is the latest from Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, The Departed, Gangs of New York, and The Wolf of Wall Street director Martin Scorsese, and Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci all star.

The story unfolds over the course of multiple decades, and it chronicles the unsolved mystery surrounding the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa. Click on over to the other side for the trailer, a synopsis, and some bonus goodies.

We’ve seen some pretty good Martin Scorsese films in the past, but The Irishman starring Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci will be a bit different from all of them. That’s because it will be the first of his films to be ever released directly to Netflix. The film marks the director’s return to the world of gangsters and mobsters as it will “journey through the hidden corridors of organized crime in post-war America.”

Check out the trailer here below.

Who is Larry Cohen? If you don’t recognize his name, I promise you’ll recognize his films. The now 77-year old has been working in the industry since the late 1950s and evolved from writing noir and western television to become a prolific genre filmmaker. His most prominent works include Black Caesar (1973), It’s Alive (1974), God Told Me To (1976), Q (1982), The Stuff (1985), and Phone Booth (2002). In all he has over 80 writing credits and 20+ directorial efforts. But more than his films was his renegade and rogue filmmaking style. A writer who became a director and producer, Larry Cohen was the consummate hustler and true triple threat. His life and career are now the subject of a phenomenal documentary, King Cohen: The Wild World of Filmmaker Larry Cohen, written and directed by Steve Mitchell and put out by Dark Star Pictures.
