Now the next chapter is ready to be written as the Whitey Bulger arrest has certainly sparked up a big interest in Boston crime movies. From The Departed to Mystic River to The Friends of Eddie Coyle to The Town, Hollywood has loved to use Boston as a backdrop for crime dramas.
Now that Bulger has been arrested after being on the run for 16+ years, expect Boston to continue to serve as the crime drama/mob movie hub for Hollywood producers for years to come. Only time will tell which movie spin we will we see next. Will it be The Departed part 2 that builds off of the original? Or will we see more accurate portrayal of Whitey's life told from the point of view of:
- One of his crew. There have already been plenty of books written by former associates that Hollywood could adapt.

- Whitey's girlfriend, Catherine Greig - Will she sell her story to Hollywood? We haven't seen this story before so my guess is Barbara Walters will be all over this interview in a few years.
- Whitey himself. According to several sources, agents found a manuscript in the apartment they raided in California. Could this serve as both Whitey's confession while also sparking a movie production?
