One of the “Goodfellas”, famous Robert De Niro, seems to look up to his peer, Bill Murray, in his strange and spontaneous adventures.
Two-time Oscar winner De Niro takes his acting career quite seriously, but there’s one thing he’s not willing to miss out on, and that is watching team USA compete in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Apparently Warner Bros. emailed the apartment building located in the neighborhood asking if they could help De Niro watch the game.
“Our lead actor, Robert De Niro, would very much like to watch the World Cup game, today at 12pm. Would it be possible to place a small portable satellite on the building rooftop ASAP and run a cable to the street to help facilitate this request?” the email read.
However, being a friendly ‘neighbor’ he is, De Niro ended up physically joining a random group of local people to watch the game. “We got another email from a local person saying he talked to the crew and apparently he found a house of people watching it and joined them,” the neighbor stated.
“He wasn’t going to miss the game. He’s a true American. He has no problem hanging out, he enjoyed it,” he added.
The actor must be very satisfied since the team USA managed to go through to the next round.
