De Niro and Scorsese: Such a Cute Couple
June 21st, 2007
What? Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese are going to work together? Again? Why, that’s unbelievable, who would have dreamed of such a thing? Oh wait…the people who helped make the 8 other films they collaborated on. Yeah well, they’re back together for a ninth time on a new project entitled Frankie Machine, which sees De Niro play a retired hitman. Based on the book The Winter of Frankie Machine by Don Winslow, the screenplay will be adapted by Brian Koppelman and David Levien, the guys behind such films as Ocean’s Thirteen, Walking Tall and Runaway Jury. No indication of when the project is going to commence shooting and subsequently, no whisper of a possible release date, so be patient!
