In a rare blending of reality and film, McDonald portrayed himself in Martin Scorsese’s Goodfellas (1990), reenacting his real-life role in convincing Henry and Karen Hill to enter the U.S. Federal Witness Protection Program. One of his most memorable lines, “Don’t give me the babe-in-the-woods routine, Karen … I heard you on the telephone, you’re talking about cocaine”, was reportedly improvised, drawing from his actual experience. He later appeared as a prosecutor in the 1995 crime thriller Kiss of Death, alongside David Caruso and Stanley Tucci. He has held a Screen Actors Guild (SAG) membership since 1990.
