My first hearing about this. Story about accardo house being robbed could make a great movie but Stallone playing accardo? Meh

Stallone vs. DeNiro playing Accardo that isn't such a great trade.

Isn't there also a Michael Mann movie about Accardo in the works?

This was the Michael Mann movie and it was originally supposed to be called The Big Tuna...then the script changed and Assayas got the script to direct. For principle, I wouldn't spend 10 cents to see Stallone play the Tuna.

Michael Mann is looking back into a movie (Fictionalization) of Tony Accardo and Sam Giancana:

I just don't see Stallone as Accardo. Might would watch it via Netflix but no way I'm spending $12 to watch it at the movies.

From the picture that was posted Travolta nailed down the look.

Johnny Depp nailed the Whitey Bulger look but it doesn't mean he played a good Whitey Bulger.

I haven't seen the movie so I don't know how he did but I thought Depp looked rediculous in that Whitey getup. :lol:

It was so-so. It was based off of Black Mass so some of it is outrageous.

Didn't really like it the first time I saw it. Second time I watched it is when it started to grow on me a little

Correct. Michale Mann had the script for Idol's Eye which was originally named The Big Tuna. However, now Mann is looking at doing a fictionalized movie based off Accardo/GIancana as well as a Heat prequel.
