Actor Robert De Niro lashed out after protestors criticized him and his movies at an event in New York<\/h2>\n

Robert De Niro lashed out at a group of hecklers with a blunt but brutal response after they said his ‘movies suck’.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With\u00a0movies<\/a>\u00a0like\u00a0Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, The Irishman\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Killers of the Flower Moon<\/em>\u00a0on his r\u00e9sum\u00e9, everyone knows\u00a0Robert De Niro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He’s got a career spanning decades and multiple\u00a0Oscars<\/a>\u00a0under his belt, putting him up there with the most successful actors alive today. But according to one person, his movies still ‘suck’.<\/p>\n

The heckler made the controversial claim after De Niro made an appearance in\u00a0New York<\/a>\u00a0to speak outside the Manhattan courtroom where former president Donald Trump is currently on trial.<\/p>\n

De Niro used his platform to warn people against voting for\u00a0Trump<\/a>\u00a0in the upcoming presidential election, claiming he wants to ‘destroy not only the city, but the country’.<\/p>\n

“Eventually he can destroy the world,” he said.<\/p>\n

De Niro was joined at the event by two officers who defended the Capitol during the insurrection on January 6, 2021, but there were also a number of protestors at the event showing their support for Trump.<\/p>\n

It was these members of the crowd who criticized De Niro as he made his way back to his car, when they called out to describe him as a ‘wannabe’ and a ‘paid sell-out’.<\/p>\n

A ‘nobody’ and a ‘little punk’ were among the other names used by hecklers, while others shouted to De Niro that his ‘movies suck’.<\/p>\n

The actor initially kept a cool head as he responded to the protestors, saying: “You’re not going to intimidate. That’s what Trump does. … We are going to fight back. We’re trying to be gentlemen in this world, the Democrats. You are gangsters. You are gangsters!”<\/p>\n

However, after another heckler added that De Niro was ‘washed up’, he hit back with a more brutal response.<\/p>\n

“F**k you,” he yelled, before climbing into his car.<\/p>\n

The altercation took place as Trump’s campaign mocked Joe Biden’s side for enlisting De Niro ahead of the election in November.<\/p>\n

Karoline Leavitt, a spokesperson on Trump’s side, described De Niro as an ‘elitist out-of-touch Hollywood actor’ who has ‘no idea the real problems that people in this city and across this country are facing’.<\/p>\n

Jason Miller, a senior adviser on Trump’s campaign, added: “The best that Biden can do is roll out a washed-up actor.”<\/p>\n

De Niro warned Americans that Trump would ‘never leave’ if he successfully won the vote to go back into the White House.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
