Imagine Travis Bickel vs Derek Vinyard. Max Cady vs Tyler Durden’s real persona. A young Don Vito Corleone vs Bruce Banner. Robert DeNiro, of course, vs Edward Norton.
This clash of two of the big screen’s supreme bad guys will take place in 2010, as John Curran’s “Stone” pits DeNiro, as parole officer against Norton, who plays a ruthless convict who sends his wife (played by Mila Jovonich) into an affair with DeNiro’s character to gain enough leverage to force a parole. The film, which was written by Angus MacLachlan does not yet have domestic distribution. It was produced by Nu Image/Millennium Fiilms.
Judging by the trailer, this looks pretty damn good.
