About The Hustler
The Hustler films follow Fast Eddie Felson from Rossen's 1961 original against Minnesota Fats to Scorsese's 1986 Color of Money sequel mentoring Vincent. Newman plays Eddie young then twenty five years later, winning the Oscar for the return.
Watch the original before the sequel since the mentorship assumes the legend. Completed with the 1986 entry and Newman's death in 2008, the pair stands closed with no continuation. Newman plays Eddie young then twenty five years later, winning the Oscar for the return opposite Cruise as the student.
Good to know
Release order is story order as a direct sequel twenty five years later, so no alternate list is needed. Gleason, Laurie and Scott anchor the original while Cruise co-leads the sequel. With no third film announced, these two are the whole saga. Release order is story order as a direct sequel twenty five years later, so no alternate list is needed at all.
