Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese are set to work together again..The actor/director duo will reunite for the feature film adaptation of Don Winslow's "The Winter of Frankie Machine" according to a report in Deadline Hollywood Daily.
De Niro will play a Mafia hit man who has gives up that life, going straight to become the owner of a bait shop. But he soon discovers that he's been tagged for a hit, and is forced to return to his former occupation.
Scorsese will direct the flick as part of a recent deal with Paramount.
"Ocean's Thirteen" scribes Brian Koppelman and David Levien penned the screenplay.
Scorsese and De Niro have made pure movie magic over the years: Taxi Driver, Mean Streets, Casino, and if course, Goodfellas. Here's hoping that the tradition continues with this project as well.
