Interview by Paul Salfen
Paul Salfen talked to actor Robert DeNiro about the “de-aging ” or “youthification” (as Director Martin Scorsese calls it) for his role as Frank Sheeran in THE IRISHMAN.
DeNiro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci star in Martin Scorsese’s THE IRISHMAN, an epic saga of organized crime in post-war America told through the eyes of World War II veteran Frank Sheeran, a hustler and hitman who worked alongside some of the most notorious figures of the 20th century. Spanning decades, the film chronicles one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in American history, the disappearance of legendary union boss Jimmy Hoffa, and offers a monumental journey through the hidden corridors of organized crime: its inner workings, rivalries and connections to mainstream politics.
