Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer are totally transformed in the first photo released from HBO’s “The Wizard of Lies,” as the veteran actors take on the roles of Bernie and Ruth Madoff, respectively.
“The Wizard of Lies” is currently in production in New York City under the direction of Barry Levinson, and chronicles the massive Ponzi scheme perpetrated by Madoff that had devastating effects for both his victims and his own family.
Alessandro Nivola and Hank Azaria also star.
