Ray Stevenson as Danny Greene: "I will definitely NOT die in this film. Nope. Don't read my Wikipedia page, though."

Say “top o’ the mornin’” to the new trailer for the feel-good Mafia gangland murder film of the year, Kill the Irishman. Also, please excuse the stupid and hackneyed Irish pun. The movie’s got a catchy title, if nothing else. The film sports a varied and experienced cast of actors well-traversed in the crime genre, particularly the inimitable Christopher Walken. (Although, so very many people have tried to imitate him and mostly failed.) To make sure the movie wasn’t too awesome, the producers wisely chose to allow Stephen Baldwin to sneak into the film as well. The “Irishman” mentioned in the title is based on a real-life wiseguy named Danny Greene. Greene’s parents immigrated to Cleveland in the 1930s from Ireland; unfortunately, Greene’s mother died shortly after his birth, his father started drinking heavily, and he ended up in a Roman Catholic orphanage. Like many orphans, he had a very tough time growing up, constantly acting out and getting in fights, despite the fact that he was pretty athletically gifted. His imposing stature, brutal moral sense, and gift for organization made Greene an ideal candidate as a Labor union boss in Cleveland during the 1970s. These traits also made him seem like a loathsome and/or fearsome jerk in the eyes of many workers. Eventually, Greene ended up crossing paths with the Italian mafia just as a boss named Frank Brancato, and the movie tells Greene’s story as an FBI informant with humor and violence.  Check out the Kill the Irishman trailer on Break.
