Taxi Driver 2?Scorsese and De Niro in secret sequel talks

It’s been over 30 years since the film we all know and love was made and since then, fans have wondered what happened to Travis after his madcap adventures in ‘Taxi Driver’. Apparantly, we’re not the only ones who have been wondering, as star Robert De Niro let slip that he’s been working on a follow-up with director, MArtin Scorsese.

“I was talking with Marty about doing what I guess you’d call a sequel to Taxi Driver, where [Bickle] is older,” he said, launching all sorts of speculation about how the story might work.

Needless to say, the idea of a Taxi Driver sequel has us all really excited. We’ll bring you all the gossip just as soon as we get it, so keep watching this space!

Dear TDMFM,Do Travis and Betsy get married in the end? Or does he love Iris?

PS - I think your mag is the best.

Daisy Roland, Age 5, Gloucester

Dear Daisy,

I don’t know whe

ther Travis

and Betsy get ma

rried, but I

think it’s proba

bly true that

he *does* love I

ris. After

all, he wouldn’t

shoot all

those people if

PS - Thanks!

Dear Taxi Driver

Movie Fun,

I have a questio

n about the

man with the bea

rd that sits

in Travis’s taxi

. My daddy

told me that thi

s is the

director of the

film. Is this

true?

Billy Noonan, Ag

e 8,

Co. Durham.

Dear Billy,Your dad is absolutely right!

That weirdy-beardy passenger

is none other than director

Martin Scorsese! You

probably know him best as the

director of Kundun and The

Age of Innocence, but he’s

also appeared in front of the

camera in Bernard Tavernier’s

‘Round Midnight.

Billy Haynes, aged 11, from Lancashire sent in this fab pic of Travis. Good work Billy, but where’s all the red?

Dear Taxi Driver Movie Fun,In the scene when Travis is pre-paring his guns, I saw that he uses a knife to cut into the tips of his bullets. Why does he do this?

Sam Thompson, Age 8,Bath

Dear Sam,

Travis is turning

ordinary bullets

into ‘cross-cut’ or

‘dum-dum’ bullets.

These shells

expand when they hit

something, causing m

ore damage

to flesh and bone. H

ope this

helps!
