Appearing alongside Robert De Niro, the film was a huge success when it first aired on Netflix earlier this year.
Speaking about his lifelong friendship with Robert, he told The Guardian: “Early on in our careers, we connected from time to time and we found we had similar things happening to us.”
Before adding: “Our lives took on a whole different kind of thing.”
