Producers of the upcoming John Gotti biopic still want Joe Pesci to accept a role in the movie, despite the Oscar winning actor having filed a lawsuit against their company, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

Pesci, 68, filed the lawsuit against Fiore Films in July, claiming he had gained 30 pounds for the role of Angelo Ruggiero, considered to be one of Gotti's closest confidantes and one of the film's most important characters.

His suit alleges that the producers then told him they wanted him for a lesser role, at one-third of his original $3 million salary.

Marc Fiore, the executive producer of Gotti: In The Shadow Of My Father, is firing back at Joe Pesci, calling the lawsuit that the actor filed against him on Wednesday "a total joke".

Pesci's lawsuit alleges that he had an oral contract for the role Angelo Ruggiero, one of Gotti's henchmen, but was told that role was no longer available to him. Pesci says he was offered the "lesser" role of the Anthony "Gaspipe" Casso, who tried to kill Gotti. Pesci claims he gained 30 pounds for the role.

Fiore spoke exclusively with RadarOnline.com and told us: "This lawsuit is a total joke. Nick Cassavetes (who was the director of the movie briefly) brought Joe Pesci in. When Cassavetes left to do the movie Yellow, Pesci stopped returning my phone calls.

Marc Fiore, executive producer of the upcoming Gotti: Three Generations confirmed the news to RadarOnline: “Lindsay is not going to be in the movie. Her playing Victoria Gotti is off the table. There is zero chance that Lindsay will be in the movie, negotiations are done. ”
