I love De Niro…but he really looks the same in each photo!

Perhaps because he is playing the same dirtbag gangster type cast.

Because O.J. would've actually killed the people on the set, instead of acting it out

James Joseph "Whitey" Bulger, Jr.
kmac

Wiki has him listed as Francis "Frank" Costello. James Bulger is a murdered child in England.

Stephen

The departed took artistic license with a lot of things like names. But the character was based on Whitey.

BigHeadEd

Not a bad "guy", but I always though Charlize Theron's portrayal of Aileen Wuornos was spot on.

Sade

#1 – actually played a fictionalized version of Bulger. Character name was Frank Costello.

No duh dude half those guys' name are changed

Justin

Don't forget Depp as Dillinger.

Gzee

I think it would be best if we did.

beecee

The Departed is actually based on an Asian mafia syndicate, though it was filmed in Boston so everybody assumed it was Whitey Bulger who Nicholson played.

AngryHoneyBadger

It's actually based on the Hong Kong crime trilogy called Infernal Affairs.
