Screen legend Robert DeNiro has reunited with iconic director Martin Scorsese to work on a sequel to their classic movie "Taxi Driver" reports Contact Music.

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.

With the exception of the "Meet" films, De Niro has starred in a series of flop films and critics are hoping Travis Bickle's resurrection will restore his reputation.

De Niro says, "I was talking with Martin Scorsese about doing what I guess you'd call a sequel to Taxi Driver, where he is older."

Being that the first is one of my favorite movies, I'm not too thrilled about this.

Hang on, I think I hear a violin......

Seriously, -IF- it gets made, no big deal, atleast DeNiro is in it. Would you rather have, say, Vin Diesel playing another taxi driver doing the same junk?

Be happy its Scorsese and DeNiro talking about it, rather than Paul Anderson and Vin Diesel.

Ture. But still, this is the one movie that DOESN'T need a sequel. Plus.....

Wow how can they make a sequel? It wasnt a sequel kind of movie

Spoiler:

Anyways if this is made its just going to be your average teen flick where they make him into a total pyschopath where he kills stuff to crappy amercian metal bands. It will probly look about as good as a Jason or Freddy film

Hey, that ***** uncalled for. Freddy flicks are great.

Freddy films are great that was more or so aimed at Jason. I just said Freddy because I hated Freddy vs Jason it was the sterotype slasher flick that fit my sterotype

So he lived yes but what more can they do with it?
