Keitel studied under both [[Stella Adler]] and [[Lee Strasberg]] and at the [[HB Studio]],<ref>[https://hbstudio.org/about-hb-studio/alumni/ HB Studio Alumni]</ref> eventually landing roles in some [[Off-Broadway]] productions.<ref name=tca/> During this time, Keitel auditioned for filmmaker [[Martin Scorsese]] and gained a starring role as "J.R.", in Scorsese's first feature film, ''[[Who's That Knocking at My Door]]'' (1967).<ref name=tca/> Since then, Scorsese and Keitel have worked together on several projects.<ref name=tca/> Keitel had the starring role in Scorsese's ''[[Mean Streets]]'', which also proved to be [[Robert De Niro]]'s breakthrough film. Keitel re-teamed with Scorsese for ''[[Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore]]'' (1974), in which he had a villainous supporting role, and appeared with Robert De Niro again in Scorsese's ''[[Taxi Driver]]'' (1976), playing the role of [[Jodie Foster]]'s character's pimp.<ref name=tca/>

In 1977 and 1978, Keitel starred in the directorial debuts of [[Paul Schrader]] (''[[Blue Collar (film)|Blue Collar]]'', co-starring [[Richard Pryor]] and [[Yaphet Kotto]]), [[Ridley Scott]] (''[[The Duellists]]'', co-starring [[Keith Carradine]]), and [[James Toback]] (''[[Fingers (1978 film)|Fingers]]'', in which Keitel played a street hood with aspirations of being a pianist – a role Toback wrote for Robert De Niro to play). In 1979, he was cast as Captain Willard in [[Francis Ford Coppola]]'s ''[[Apocalypse Now]]'' (1979). Keitel was involved with the first week of principal photography in the Philippines. Coppola was not happy with Keitel's take on Willard, stating that the actor "found it difficult to play him as a passive onlooker".<ref>{{cite book| last=Cowie| first=Peter| title=Coppola: A Biography| url=https://books.google.com/books?id=E7kcAQAAIAAJ&q=keitel| year=1990| publisher=Scribner| location=New York| isbn=978-0-6841-9193-5| page=122}}</ref> After viewing the first week's footage, Coppola replaced Keitel with a casting session favorite, [[Martin Sheen]].

Keitel continued to do work on both stage and screen in the 1980s, often in the [[stereotypical]] role of a [[mobster|thug]]. Keitel played a corrupt police officer in the 1983 thriller ''[[Copkiller]]'' (co-starring musician [[John Lydon]]), before taking a supporting role in the romantic drama ''[[Falling in Love (1984 film)|Falling in Love]]'' (1984), starring [[Robert De Niro]] and [[Meryl Streep]]. Between 1985 and 1988, he was one of the busiest character actors around, appearing in 16 films and telefilms,<ref>{{cite magazine|magazine=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]|date=October 5, 1988|page=1|last=Cohn|first=Lawrence|title=Acting Jobs Steadiest Since Studio Era}}</ref> including [[Brian De Palma]]'s mobster comedy ''[[Wise Guys (1986 film)|Wise Guys]]'' (1986), starring [[Danny DeVito]] and [[Joe Piscopo]], and as [[Judas Iscariot|Judas]] in Martin Scorsese's controversial ''[[The Last Temptation of Christ (film)|The Last Temptation of Christ]]'' (1988).

Keitel starred in [[Quentin Tarantino]]'s ''[[Reservoir Dogs]]'' (which he co-produced) in 1992,<ref name=tca/> where his performance as "Mr. White" took his career to a different level.
