John Travolta is hard at work on his new movie!
The 71-year-old Golden Globe winner was nearly unrecognizable as Italian mobster Johnny Roselli as he filmed scenes for November 1963 on Wednesday (July 16) in Winnipieg, Canada.
For his time on set, John looked straight out of the ’60s with a mustache while wearing a blue suit, brown fedora, and sunglasses.
November 1963 “unfolds within the intense 48-hour period surrounding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The film sheds light on crime group the Chicago Outfit’s alleged involvement in the assassination and draws directly from first-hand accounts, including insights from the family of crime boss Sam Giancana,” according to Deadline.
John is playing Roselli, who was “a key figure in organized crime and the Outfit’s man on the West Coast and Vegas.” Mandy Patinkin is playing Anthony Accardo, “a powerful and calculating head of the Chicago Outfit, considered one of the most powerful crime bosses in America at the time.”
Dermot Mulroney is playing Chuckie Nicoletti, “Sam Giancana’s bodyguard and the Outfit’s most notorious South Side hitman.” The movie is being directed by two-time Oscar nominee Roland Joffé.
If you missed it, John recently gave Grease fans a huge surprise!
