De Niro and Scorsese Discuss 'Taxi Driver' Sequel
20 January 2005 (WENN)
Screen legend Robert De Niro has reunited with iconic director Martin Scorsese to work on a sequel to their classic movie Taxi Driver. The Oscar-winning actor, who starred as disturbed Vietnam veteran Travis Bickle in the 1976 film, has confirmed the movie veterans are mulling over script ideas for a follow-up to the gritty original. Apart from his comedy turn in Meet The Parents and its recent sequel Meet The Fockers, De Niro has starred in a series of flop films - and critics are hoping Travis Bickle's resurrection will restore his reputation as one of the greatest dramatic actors of all time. De Niro, 61, says, "I was talking with Martin Scorsese about doing what I guess you'd call a sequel to Taxi Driver, where he is older."

So, because he did a couple shitty films in the past few years, he's no longer the greatest dramatic actor of all time, but if he does a sequel that follows the coattails of one of his greatest performances, then critics will be able to praise him again?

And here I thought Hide and Seek would do that for him.
I hold the dubious honor of being the only person never modded who has also never been to a party who in the past had a shared account with a vegetable reference that has had consensual sex with a woman who wasn't from the board that also knows what >) means and remembers the end of the golden age.

To restore his reputation as one of the greatest character actors of all time. Can't you read?

Horrible idea, leave perfection alone. He's already in most everyones top lists for actors and has been there since the early 80's. He is also one of the most versatile actors, he can play almost anything from the bad guy to the good guy to the funny guy, etc etc.

Al Pacino is in discussion with Brian Depalma to do a sequel to Scarface where he comes back from the dead and is a zombie drug kingpin who avenges his murder, it's like The Crow meets Scarface.

He completely disagrees with you.
He thinks Deniro plays the same role in every movie.

Deniro plays Deniro doing a character in any movie.
There are four kinds of people in this world: cretins, fools, morons, and lunatics.

Too bad Slash doesn't post here any more. Otherwise he might have hit that one out the park.
