"I don't need to have a big part. I'd like to just go in there real quick, beat the shit out of all three of them and then leave"!
Goodfellas consistently shows up on lists of the greatest films ever made. The gangster film is integral to director Martin Scorsese's legacy and helped launch Joe Pesci and Ray Liotta to stardom. Now, Liotta is lobbying for a reunion.
The Henry Hill-actor voiced his desire to work with Scorsese again, particularly on his long-delayed mob film The Irishman. The film is slated to star Al Pacino and Goodfellas alum Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci.
Liotta said he wishes he had been in more Scorsese movies and that he's "more than willing" to make an appearance in The Irishman.
"I don't need to have a big part", he said. "I'd like to just go in there real quick, beat the shit out of all three of them and then leave"!
We can hope! Until then, hold yourself over with a 25th anniversary panel of the cast on the U.S. talk show Today.
