Martin Scorsese directs an all-star cast in this action-packed thriller set in Boston, where a long-simmering hostility between the police department and an Irish American gang led by Frank Costello is primed to explode.

The prestigious ensemble cast stars Academy Award winner Leonardo DiCaprio (“The Revenant”, “The Wolf of Wall Street”) , Academy Award winner Matt Damon (“Good Will Hunting”, “The Martian”), three time Academy Award Winner Jack Nicholson (“One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest”, “Terms of Endearment”, “As Good as it Gets”), and Academy Award nominee Mark Wahlberg (“The Fighter”, “Boogie Nights”), with Emmy Award winner Martin Sheen (television’s “The West Wing,” “Apocalypse Now”), BAFTA nominee Ray Winstone (“That Summer”, “Nil by Mouth”), Academy Award nominee Vera Farmiga (“Up in the Air”), Academy Award nominee Alec Baldwin (“The Cooler”), Emmy nominee Anthony Anderson (television’s “Black-ish,” “Hustle & Flow”), and James Badge Dale in supporting roles.
Directed by Scorsese, the screenplay is by Academy Award Winner William Monahan and is based on the 2002 Hong Kong action thriller “Internal Affairs” by Alan Mak & Felix Chong. The film was produced by Brad Pitt, Brad Grey, and Graham King.
