Nicholas Pileggi, the film's scriptwriter, is rumoured to have signed on for the drama's pilot episode, though it is unknown whether Scorsese will take part.
I say that because he's perfect for the role of either hero or villain. Some actors can only play one or the other, but he can switch and choose and still have the same amount of talent. Probably my favorite movies with Joe Pesci include: Home Alone, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, and My Cousin Vinny. In the Home Alone movies, Joe plays the house robber villain after a kid. In My Cousin Vinny, he plays the lawyer hero who defends the lives of two teenagers. These 3 movies are both similar and different at the same time. They all have humor (which Joe is perfect for), but Joe plays the hero in one and the villain in two.
This actor puts the "un" in funny! He was hilarious in Home Alone 1 and 2,Gone Fishing,My Cousin Vinny, and more! Every single time this guy talks i laugh and who wouldn't? Who could forget in Gone Fishing when him and Danny Glover were sitting in the restarant(in the hotel)and people were looking at them with judgement on how could those slobs be eating at a place like this? Well this one elderly woman looks at Joe Pesci while he is sitting down and he says "What are u looking at?". That part had me crying my beady little eyes out with LAUGHTER for days!
I like his acting, I have seen him in most of his movies, and most of them concentrate in more of corruption and mob people around the environment, but he really knows how to act. I also think that his character is very funny in Home Alone and Home Alone 2, which are great, I absolutely love him in Raging Bull and Goodfellas, he was awesome.
Joe Pesci is a true actor. You really believe that he got into acting because he loves it for what it is. You'll never see him in any tabloids and you won't hear any gossip about him. In his roles, you sense more realism than many other actor's who are considered more talented than he. Of all of his roles in all of his movies, my favorite has to be "My Cousin Vinny."
Joe Pesci, is a very talented actor, he has played in so many good movies, like Gone Fishing, Home Alone, Home Alone 2 and the Lethal Weapon movies.
Joe Pesci, is best known as Harry one half of the wet bandits in the hit Home Alone, and Home Alone 2, alongside Marv (Daniel Stern) they tried and failed to rob Kevin’s house and neighborhood and house and a toy store, in the second one.
Joe and Daniel where the perfect pair for the misfit crooks, getting torn up in every trap Kevin set for them and coming back for more.
Joe played Leo Getz in the Lethal Weapons movies, they annoying cop that always wanted to go with Riggs ( Mel Gibson) and Murtaugh (Danny Glover) on police business.
His talent is showed in every movie he plays in weather it be a cook or a cop, Joe Pesci always gives it his best.
