Robert De Niro & Stallone new Boxing movie Grudge Match

Anyone excited?

Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro are in negotiations to star in “Grudge Match” for Warner Bros., according to an individual with knowledge of the situation.

The comedy is about two retired boxers who return to the ring for a final grudge match. While not yet green-lit, the movie is a “go” project at the studio expected to film early next year.

Peter Segal, whose credits include “Anger Management” and “Tommy Boy,” will direct.

Warner Bros. and De Niro’s representatives declined to comment on the report. Stallone’s representatives said he is considering the role.


Mark Steven Johnson is producing, as are Gerber Pictures’ Bill Gerber and Carrie Gillogly. Johnson directed “Daredevil.”


De Niro will have to fit this into a crowded schedule. He will appear in three more movies this year and has four more set for 2013 openings. Stallone will star in “The Expendables II,” set for release later this year, and has a pair of projects on deck for 2013.

How many of these will actually be worth a squirt of piss.

Is this a sequel to or a remake of Play It to the Bone? Either way, will Antonio Banderas and Woody Harrelson have cameos?

Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas were older when they made TOUGH GUYS (1986).

But I bet most people over 60 would die to look like Stallone.

I will watch this over a Channing Tatum or whoever the flavor of the month is now in Hollywood.

Just hope maybe they don't have to fight.

Kevin Hart, a 5'2" black man who looks nothing like De Niro.

Holy crap, that was pretty funny! Please be rated R. The fight in the green screen suits was epic.
