What could be better than watching Robert De Niro (*Killers of the Flower Moon*) take on the role of a gangster? How about seeing him portray *two* gangsters?

That’s precisely what awaits in *The Alto Knights*, a film that brings De Niro back together with director Barry Levinson. The pair has previously collaborated on projects such as the political satire *Wag the Dog* and the Bernie Madoff biopic *The Wizard of Lies*.

Crafted by *Goodfellas* screenwriter Nicholas Pileggi, *The Alto Knights* showcases De Niro in dual roles as the real-life crime bosses Frank Costello and Vito Genovese. Once firm allies, their bond disintegrates under the burden of betrayal, leading Genovese to make an attempt on Costello’s life. Their subsequent clash for dominance over New York’s underworld lays the groundwork for a power struggle that could alter the Mafia forever.

Take a look at the full trailer above to get a taste of the riveting gangster drama and watch De Niro confront himself in this captivating narrative.

*The Alto Knights* hits theaters on March 21.
