Niro additionally said that he and Martin Scorsese still hope to produce films about the CIA’s history and the character of Edward Wilson played by Matt Damon.

While the first film ran from the early days of WWII to the Bay of Pigs incident in 1961, the second is expected to run from that point through to the fall of the Soviet Union and the Berlin Wall in 1989. Meanwhile, the third is expected to deal with events from 1990 till the present.

Niro and Scorsese are currently working on a secret project aimed for release sometime next year.
