Hollywood Mafia Mobsters Henry Hill: If Ferris is a wise guy he’ll leave the country when movie comes out.. in case he gets whacked

GOODFELLAS mobster Henry Hill has warned former gangster Friend of ours Paul Ferris to FLEE Scotland after his movie biopic is released.
Legendary Mafia hood Hill reckons Ferris could face revenge attacks, just like he has since the hit movie about him was released in 1990.

Hill, 68, spent over a decade fearing that he would be whacked after his shady story became a Hollywood blockbuster.

Goodfellas told how 'wise guy' Hill — played by Ray Liotta — became an FBI grass and eventually brought down his own mob.

He had to be given a new identity and placed on the witness protection programme.

There was a whopping £1million contract out on Hill's head — and he's only recently started making public appearances.

Now Hill has advised Glasgow's former underworld enforcer Ferris, 48, to take time out for his own safety when controversial flick The Wee Man hits cinemas.

Speaking exclusively to The Scottish Sun, Hill said: "He'll have to be guarded for sure — he should come to America and live.

"It's important for him to stay on the straight and narrow path.

"That way, everything will be okay and it'll all work itself out.

"He has to be cool and not let it get to his head.

"It's going to be a strange process and he'll probably be able to tell you about it ten years from now.

"He should go and see the world after it comes out."

The Wee Man is currently being filmed in London after Strathclyde cops banned it from Glasgow. The flick, which stars Martin Compston as Ferris, chronicles the hardman's feuds with a string of notorious Glasgow gangland figures.

Hill, who now lives in Malibu, California, added: "Life changed immensely for me and it will for him, too.

"I went from being a gangster to a Goodfella, making movies. It was surreal what happened.

"People wanted to talk to me all the time, and get to know me.

"I don't consider myself a celebrity and at times it was a pain in the ass. But overall, it was cool."

There are similarities in the stories of Hill and Ferris — who are arguably their respective countries' most famous ex-cons.



And he reckons he's only safe to do so because most of his enemies from the time are now dead.
