FAA-PIC with foreign license

Assumed you manage to obtain a green card, and with several thousand hours of PIC-time on an airliner in EASA, could you directly fly as PIC for a US airline?

Meaning: can you transfer your EASA-PIC-TR into a FAA-PIC-TR?

Somehow I have in the back of my mind that you first need 1500h under part 121 oder part 135 regulations as FO before you can be a PIC on an US-airliner, irrespective of your foreign experience and licenses.
