The first official trailer for The Irishman is finally here.
The film hails from Academy Award winner Martin Scorsese’s for Netflix.
After several teasers, the trailer finally gives us a comprehensive look at Robert De Niro as mob enforcer Frank Sheeran, Joe Pesci as the ruthless crime syndicate boss Russell Bufalino, and Al Pacino’s Jimmy Hoffa.
As the film follows Sheeran from his mid-20s to his 80s, Scorsese put into use de-aging visual effects technology.
“They didn’t want it to get in our way. And Marty didn’t want that … They had all kinds of cameras taking pictures, a special camera photographing us,” De Niro said of the de-aging process to Jimmy Fallon during his appearance on The Tonight Show Wednesday night.
The Irishman was penned by screenwriter Steven Zaillia (Schindler’s List, Gangs of New York). It also stars Ray Romano, Bobby Cannavale, Anna Paquin, and Jesse Plemons.
The Irishman premieres on Netflix November 27.
