De Niro and Scorsese Discuss 'Taxi Driver' Sequel
Screen legend Robert De Niro has reunited with iconic director Martin Scorsese to work on a sequel to their classic movie Taxi Driver. 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. Apart from his comedy turn in Meet The Parents and its recent sequel Meet The Fockers, De Niro has starred in a series of flop films - and critics are hoping Travis Bickle's resurrection will restore his reputation as one of the greatest dramatic actors of all time. De Niro, 61, says, "I was talking with Martin Scorsese about doing what I guess you'd call a sequel to Taxi Driver, where he is older."
...didn't travis bickle die at the end of the first one? or was he just all shot up and we were left to draw our own conclusion?

Lol, I was begining to think that I got the wrong movie or something. Yeah, he doesn't die. I'm still not sure about this sequel, but we're talking about DeNiro and Scorcese here, so I guess I'll just wait and see.

It's been awhile since I've seen it. The last scene I remember is when he's covered in blood and using his finger as a gun to mimic shooting himself in the head.
