It would be cooler w/ De Niro as the revenge character imo.
Millennium Films and Corsan Pictures have announced production will start on January 16 for Killing Season (previously known as "Shrapnel"), 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.
Nu Image/Millennium is taking the lead on international sales at the American Film Market this week, in consultation with Corsan.
"I've loved this project from the moment I read Evan Daughterty's remarkable script," said Corsan CEO Paul Breuls. "It's thrilling, imaginative, unexpected and dominated by two extraordinary characters on a collision course. I'm very pleased this film is moving into production and to be partnered with Avi Lerner and his team at Millennium."
"We're excited to be co-financing and co-producing this film with Corsan, and to be working again with Robert De Niro and John Travolta," said Nu Image/Millennium topper Avi Lerner. "We've never seen these two great actors on screen together before, and we're excited to see what comes of the combination."
I saw this a few years ago when it was called "Seraphim Falls", w/ Liam & Pierce. At least that's what I'm gonna expect something out of this. De Niro killed Travolta's (insert generic relationship here), and now Travolta is bent on revenge. So in actuality it's De Niro who will be the "bad" guy
I know this has been done, and these two have been whored out in movies. The reason De Niro is going to be the bad guy, is because that is all we see him as! I mean that is what he has portrayed, during most of his career. But I think this will be interesting to see. I just hope they don't do a horrible job like they did with Righteous Kills with Pacino and De Niro. This should be better and I look forward to it.
Oh,Director of Daredevil and Ghost Rider?!...............yeah, that will have them running to the theatres.........sike.
my thoughts exactly megatronLegacy, how the fuck do these guys keep gettin gigs?
MMTB
more money than brains
yeah I remember when Deniro and Pacino finally were teaming for a film together and all the hype that it brung. I was excited for it too. But the movie was just average even though the actors pulled off their parts to a T. Good acting can only go so far. A good story is needed too
Wow, if only they could toss in Nic Cage too we would have a totally whored out cast.
