Two of the three reunite!

For some time now, many of us have been hoping (and probably praying!) for the Scorsese-Pesci-De Niro trifecta to reunite. And it would seem that our prayers have been partially answered.

Goodfellas director Martin Scorsese and the movie's star Robert De Niro are returning to the murky underworld of the New York mob for a new gangster film.

De Niro has signed to play Frank 'the Irishman' Sheeran in the Scorsese-directed project - based on the book I Heard You Paint Houses.

Now all they need is Joe Pesci to come back to the table, and we'd be in business! I think the last film all three did together was Goodfellas 2 Casino, and while I honestly wasn't partial to that film, the chemistry between all three men was a match made in heaven. I think their best film together was probably Raging Bull.
