Dustin Hoffman Possibly Escaped the Focker Sequel Hole
November 20, 2009 Comments
Has Dustin Hoffman resisted the endless Focker sequel allure that has attracted such talent as Robert De Niro and Harvey Keitel? Perhaps!
Sources tell EW.com that there has been strife between Hoffman and the studio over the size of the part, the scheduling of the days on set and other difficulties. Hoffman had tentatively agreed to appear in what was to be a very funny cameo at the end of the film. That seems to have now fallen apart, due to either salary issues or scheduling problems, or both.
I'll feel marginally better about the once-great actor's career until a week from now when I'm writing about how he's doing Tootsie 2: Re-Dressed.
