Robert De Niro and Al Pacino have made four movies together and De Niro apparently wishes one of those films could swim with the fishes.

In a recent interview with Variety , De Niro recalled when the two were on a promotional tour for 2008s Righteous Kill, a police thriller that would get murdered by critics and not exactly make a killing at the box office .

The two were in Rome for a premiere, greeted by enthusiastic fans. That prompted a confession from De Niro to his co-star:

I said, This is a great reaction, but it would be nice if they were here for a movie that we really feel proud about. Next time well do one we like.

Fast forward to 2019. Their next collaboration, director Martin Scorseses long-awaited gangster epic The Irishman, is receiving very good early reviews .

So we figure that their new Netflix film, to open in November, combined with Heat (1995) and The Godfather: Part II (1974) gives them a .750 batting average.

Thats worthy of the Hall of Fame.
