BlackFilm was kind enough to shoot us a link to a bit of news they just received coming out of the Toronto Film Festival where Jodie Foster is currently promoting her upcoming thriller Flightplan, which is set to hit theaters on September 23rd.
Foster apparently let loose that she will be starring alongside Robert De Niro in a film called Sugarland. The site goes on with the following description:
The film is about Jamaican cane workers in Florida. She will play a civil rights attorney. Robert De Niro wil costar as the plantation owner.
If you remember Foster and De Niro previously worked together eons ago when Foster was only 14 years-old in Taxi Driver (see pic below). Foster’s performance in the film was highly acclaimed and garnered her much attention.
