The last time we saw Edward Norton and Robert De Niro together was in the film “The Score” mildly decent film that didn’t live anywhere near up to its potential, especially when you consider the cast involved (Marlon Brando was also in it and it was directed by the brilliant Frank Oz).
Well… it seems the two major stars are taking another shot at working together in an upcoming project called “Stone”. The guys at We Are Movie Geeks give us this:
Mimran Schur Pictures, formed of a partnership between David Mimran and former Geffen Records president Jordan Schur, will produce develop ‘Stone’ as their debut film. Holly Wiersma will also co-produce. The story follows the wife of a convicted arsonist (Norton) who seduces a correctional officer (De Niro) while the arsonist is up for parole.
You know what… that actually sounds like it could be pretty good. Man I hope it is…. De Niro has been so ass awful for years now. It would be awesome to see him return to form.
