Actor Robert De Niro is gearing up to be part of the cast for the Italian romance film "Manual of Love 3". The role he'll be playing is a divorced American professor living in Rome. Yes, he'll have to be speaking Italian for almost half of the time he's on screen. Yeah, my mind shot over to "The Godfather 2" as well, wonderful film.

Anyways, principal photography begins on September 24th and hopefully the film will be out sometime late next year overseas. Giovanni Veronesi, the director of the first two features from this franchise, will be taking on the third piece. Apparently De Niro's last brush with working on a foreign film is "1900", a Bernardo Bertolucci drama that came out in 1976. That's quite a gap in between foreign films.

You have a couple of options of how and when you want to see De Niro in theaters soon. The first is checking out De Niro on the screen later this year in "Little Fockers" on December 22nd or you can see him probably get ripped to shreds in the action film "Machete" on September 3rd. Don't know about you, but I'm definitely checking out "Machete".

I agree with the author of the article. I'd have to say I'm looking forward far more to De Niro in Machete than anything else. I have a feeling he's gonna channel Travis Bickle for his role lol
