Almost twenty years after its film adaptation, Herbert Asbury’s 1927 non-fiction novel ‘The Gangs Of New York’ is all set to be presented as a series because it’s the era of streaming and television content and the stakeholders are looking to squeeze the maximum out of it.
Martin Scorsese directed the movie ‘Gangs Of New York’, which starred Leonardo DiCaprio, Daniel Day-Lewis and Cameron Diaz and scored 10 Oscar nominations. And now, Scorsese will help to launch by executive producing and directing the first two episodes, reports ‘Empire’ magazine.
The movie chronicled DiCaprio’s Amsterdam Vallon returning to the Five Points area of New York City seeking revenge against Bill the Butcher (Day-Lewis), his father’s killer.
