Martin Scorsese answers to no studio.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Departed is one of Martin Scorsese's best movies of the 21st century partly thanks to its shocking ending, but one studio demand would have totally ruined the film if the director had listened. The 2006 crime movie is an exciting cat-and-mouse thriller about an undercover cop and a gangster working for the FBI, and they're both trying to uncover who each other is.
Warner Bros' The Departed Demand Would Have Ruined The Movie's Ending It's hard to believe that a studio would make demands on Martin Scorsese, as the celebrated filmmaker had been considered one of the greats long before 2006. Nevertheless, Warner Bros. still made requests, not that Scorsese listened. The studio wanted not only Billy Costigan , the undercover cop, to survive but also wanted Colin Sullivan , the gangster who infiltrated the FBI, to survive, too.
Like so many of Scorsese's movies, The Departed is essentially about how crime doesn't pay, but it also tells a fable about how the good guys don't always win. If both Billy and Colin survived, the message wouldn't have worked. While The Departed is an American remake of Infernal Affairs, which has a number of sequels, Scorsese told a very different story with his remake.
