According to Deadline Hollywood, Nicholas Pileggi and Jorge Zamacona are working on a conversion of one of film’s most popular Mafia stories. Goodfellas, the movie version of the book Wiseguy, could very well be a series on AMC.
Wiseguy, and hence Goodfellas, are based on the life of Mafia soldier Henry Hill and have been incredibly popular both in print and on screen. I cannot imagine with such strong roots and the backing of AMC that the new TV series won’t be anything but sterling and a success. I’ll be there watching the first night.
