Queens rapper/chef Acton Bronson has joined the cast for Netflix’s upcoming Martin Scorsese-directed biographical crime film, The Irishman, reports Billboard.
While details on what his exact role has yet to be revealed, sources suggest that he will appear alongside Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci. Last week, Bam Bam posted a photo with Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese via Instagram, further suggesting that he has a role in the film.
The film is based on the Charles Brandt book, I Heard You Paint Houses, and follows Frank "The Irishman" Sheeran (Robert De Niro), a mob hitman that was allegedly involved in the death of the Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa, portrayed by Al Pacino.
