Deadline:
Millennium Films, Corsan Pictures and FilmEngine will begin production January 16 on “Killing Season,” starring Robert De Niro and John Travolta. Mark Steven Johnson (“Ghost Rider,” “Daredevil”) will direct from a script by Evan Daugherty (“Snow White and the Huntsman”).
“Killing Season” is an action movie set in the Appalachian Mountains about an American military veteran (De Niro) who has retreated to a remote cabin in the woods. When a rare visitor, a European tourist (Travolta), appears on the scene, the two men strike up an unlikely friendship. But in fact the visitor is a former Serbian soldier bent on revenge. What follows is a tense, action packed battle across some of America’s most forbidding landscape that proves the old adage: the purest form of war is one-on-one.
Chillopedia: There’s no wonder he’s given us some iconic characters, such as a young Don Corleone and Travis Bickle. So, to commend this great actor, let’s look at the best Robert De Niro movies of all time.
These are the best actor performances from Martin Scorsese films. Scorsese's masterful movies always feature magnificent performances
Killers of the Flower Moon trailer brings Scorsese, DiCaprio and De Niro together for a 20th century true crime tale.
I can see them making a good movie together. They aren't getting any younger but De Niro did pretty good with Statham in Killer Elite so I'm sure he can hold his own with Travolta on this one.
I'd like to see them together on screen.
