The news is good. The news is very good.
The Godfather himself, Michael Corleone aka Al Pacino, has signed on to join the cast of Gotti: Three Generations playing John Gotti Sr’s associate and mentor Neil Dellacroce.
If any actor was going lend credibility to a film and bring it back on track it’s going to be Al Pacino.
The film has been plagued with some controversy, Lindsay Lohan being cast then removed then re-cast again and also having the original director walk away, and so casting the Godfather in an integral role is surely going to raise interest and get the film back on track.
The second lot of good news is the addition of Barry Levinson stepping into the role as director, a position which has remained empty since Nick Cassavetes walked away a month or so ago. Barry Levinson has had a long and industrious history in Hollywood as both director and producer, You Don’t Know Jack, Wag The Dog, and Rain Man and there is no doubt that with him running the show that this film is back on track.
So let’s just take a moment and see where we’re at….we have;
John Travolta as The Dapper Don
Kelly Preston as Victoria Gotti
Joe Pesci as Angelo Ruggiero
Lindsay Lohan as Kim Gotti
and
Al Pacino as Neil Dellacroce
Now tell me that you’re not excited!
