MEAN STREETS and TAXI DRIVER stars Harvey Keitel and Robert De Niro will reteam for the upcoming Universal comedy MEET THE FOCKERS. And just a few days after Jamie Foxx and Martin Lawrence announced they'd be reteaming their Wanda and Sheneneh characters for a movie?! Will the superstar reteamings ever stop?! Keitel has signed on to play a contractor hired by Stiller's Greg Focker so it's unclear how much, if any, interaction Keitel will actually have with De Niro in the film.

Keitel joins Jessica Alba and Laura Dern as newcomers in the franchise. Alba is playing a sexy pharmaceutical rep while Dern plays the teacher of the young Focker kids. Teri Polo, Blythe Danner and Owen Wilson are all set to return with Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand, last seen as the Focker parents, will be sitting this installment out. Paul Weitz is directing FOCKERS, stepping in to replace Jay Roach who will instead take a producing credit. Filming on FOCKERS is scheduled to begin later this year.

Extra Tidbit: Keitel and De Niro also starred in COP LAND but I can't for the life of me remember if they actually share screen time.

It has a good cast, so lets hope it's as good or better than the first. I would have liked to see Hoffman and Streisand back though!

Don't care much about Streisand, but it would've been nice to have a scene with Hoffman, Keitel and de Niro together.

Has that ever happened?

love it
I love Copland, Stallone is very underrated in his role. Ray Liotta is tops too.

They did act against each other in cop land. I actually forgot that they did. I liked that movie and I guess it's about time that I watch it again! Thanks for the "tip" :)
