Writer-director Paul Schrader has reacted to a report that Robert De Niro will reprise his iconic Taxi Driver<\/em> role of Travis Bickle for an Uber commercial being filmed this week in London. <\/p>\n

The report indicates De Niro will be riffing on Bickle’s classic lines in a series of spots. The 1976 Martin Scorsese film is set in a noirish New York, with De Niro’s Travis Bickle cab driver slowly deteriorating into a vigilante. De Niro was nominated for an Academy Award as Best Actor. <\/p>\n

Schrader noted the Uber ad report in a Facebook post. <\/p>\n

“Ouch,” he wrote. “Why Bob would do this is beyond my reckoning. But I haven’t seen it. If I’m lucky I never will.”<\/p>\n

The line believed to be used in the Uber ad shows the deeply disturbed Bickle beginning to talk to himself in the mirror, role-playing imagined scenarios. “You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? Well, then who the hell else are you talking – You talking to me? Well, I’m the only one here. Who the f**k do you think you’re talking to?” <\/p>\n

Schrader is currently shooting Oh, Canada<\/em> with Richard Gere and Jacob Elordi.<\/p>\n
