Goodfellas Television Show Finds A House

The show has been put in development by Mad Males/Breaking Bad cable network AMC.Nicholas Pileggi, who authored the film according to his book Wiseguy, is formally confirmed aboard the show, likely to write the pilot with Homicide: Existence In The Pub veteran Jorge Zamacona.There is no word on which a part of Henry Hill's saga the series would cover, but when it causes it to be towards the air, there's lots of scope to inform the storyline from the Lucchese crime family from the beginning within the sixties to the fall.And it is only some of the period drama that Pileggi continues to be focusing on: he's also got Rob Lamb cooking away, which informs the real story of the cowboy-switched-Vegas sheriff within the same era. That demonstrate has James Mangold mounted on direct the pilot, therefore it remains to appear whether Pileggi will finish up splitting his time between two shows...
