Good point, Sonny.

DeNiro was 36 when they filmed "Raging Bull." He was born in '43, they filmed "Bull" in '79. But you're right; a lot of people don't realize that when the film opened, he was playing a 19 or 20 year old Jake LaMotta. LaMotta was born in 1921. The film opened in the very early '40s.

I still think Travolta is too old, especially if the bulk of the film is going to take place in the '70s. We'll just have to wait and see.

Angelo Ruggiero died at 48 years old. Pesci will be close to 70 by the time they start filming this movie.
