The 2006 CIA historical thriller The Good Shepherd didn't totally wow the critics [1] and I've heard many viewers complain that the movie is too long and not all that interesting. Even so, the Robert DeNiro-directed project did earn an Oscar nod [2] and it boasts a stellar cast.

Now DeNiro is talking sequels [3] — yes, plural. Variety continues:

De Niro said he would like to make two sequels to CIA Cold War drama The Good Shepherd — one bringing the action forward from 1961 to 1989, the other following its hero, Edward Wilson (Matt Damon), up to the present day.

Martin Scorsese will be a producer on the sequels as well.

Do you want to see continuations of Edward Wilson's story? Or was the one Good Shepherd enough?
