Harvey Keitel The FOCKER

Ya know, when trying to guess who’s going to get cast in the upcoming LITTLE FOCKERS, the third Universal Pictures installment that started with Meet The Parents, you’d think that the actors will be from Ben Stiller‘s frat pack, anybody from the Wilson brothers, Jack Black, maybe even Will Ferrell but another actor has joined the cast and it’s from De Niro’s circle of friends, Harvey Keitel (Taxi Driver)…

According to Hollywood Reporter, Keitel is going to play a contractor employed by Stiller’s character. I wonder how funny his character will be, considering Keitel usually plays an intimidating tough guy. Already starring Ben Stiller, Teri Polo, Blythe Danner and Robert De Niro and Owen Wilson all reprising their roles, Jessica Alba is set to play a drop dead gorgeous pharmaceutical rep whose drop dead gorgeous looks wreak havoc on male characters in the story and Laura Dern plays the headmistress of the elementary school that the Fockers’ kids attend.
John Hamburg wrote the latest version of the script, to be directed by Paul Weitz, production will start next month and the movie is scheduled for release in 2010. Obviously from the title, the story is set five years later and it will deal with the Fockers, Pam and Greg and their twin children.
