February 4, 1999
From Mr. Showbiz.com

De Niro is currently in negotiations to star in Gangs of New york focusing on New York mob life from the late 1800's to 1950. If De Niro signs, he'd be joining pretty boy (snot-nosed punk) Leonardo DiCaprio who signed yesterday. It would also be De Niro and Scorsese's eighth actor-director collaboration. Writer Jay Cocks ( "Age of Innocence") will be penning the script.

15 Minutes Up for De Niro, Burns

From Mr. Showbiz.com

Following in the footsteps of Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, and Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker, among others, Edward Burns and Robert De Niro will try to become the next hotshot young-old big-screen duo. The Hollywood trades report that the actors are thisclose to inking a deal to star in the New Line thriller 15 Minutes for writer-director John Herzfeld (2 Days in the Valley). In the flick, De Niro will play a well-known homicide detective who is paired with a fire department investigator (Burns) to crack a murder case. Production is scheduled to begin in April in New York and Los Angeles, with a female lead, described as Eastern European, still to be cast. Michael De Luca, the bad boy president and CEO of New Line, says 15 Minutes is a "high-priority, fast-track project." De Niro, who received around $12 million for the action-thriller Ronin, will receive a smaller upfront fee this time out, says Variety. But he'll get a bigger cut of the back end, which means that if audiences take to the pic, he could make a tidy sum. Next up for De Niro is the Billy Crystal black comedy Analyze This. Burns, the writer-director-star of The Brothers McMullen and She's the One, most recently appeared on-screen in Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan.
