Robert De Niro returns to the mob saga in a masterful dual role, playing two historic crime bosses whose feud rocked the New York mafia.

In the early twentieth century, fellow Italian immigrants Frank Costello and Vito Genovese helped Lucky Luciano build the most powerful crime family in America – but when he is imprisoned, their friendship quickly goes sour. As decades pass, their struggle for power and influence threatens not only their lives and the people close to them, but the very world they are trying to control. Director Barry Levinson (Bugsy, Rain Man) and Goodfellas writer Nicholas Pileggi craft a vintage retelling of mob history with wit, detail, and drama.

At its core is a grand, operatic clash of personalities, which gives De Niro an opportunity for some of his most impressive acting in years.
