In the upcoming film 'The Alto Knights,' Robert De Niro takes on the dual roles of notorious mobsters Frank Costello and Vito Genovese, exploring their tumultuous relationship that evolved from childhood friends to bitter rivals. The film, scripted by Nicholas Pileggi, known for 'Goodfellas,' delves into the real history of the American Mafia's downfall in the 1950s.
