Martin Scorsese The Irishman is based on Charles Brandt’s book I Heard You Paint Houses, and it marks the ninth collaboration between Robert De Niro and the director.
The Irishman unites Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci for the first time in a Scorsese project since 1995’s Casino and fans are excited to see what the director has done this time around.
The story spans multiple decades and the legendary director had to find a way to make Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci look young again.
When talking about the de-aging process used in The Irishman, the director prefers to call it “youthification.”
