Amidst Weinstein Scandal, All Robert De Niro Can Say Is 'F***k You, Donald Trump'
Weinstein and De Niro have a long history together; Weinstein produced several movies starring De Niro (Jackie Brown, Silver Linings Playbook). Most recently, De Niro and Weinstein were set to produce an Amazon series alongside director David O. Russel; the recent allegations against Weinstein have torpedoed the project.
Robert De Niro also owns The Tribeca Grill, a restaurant in Manhattan that Weinstein frequented with young women, and where he is alleged to have terrorized the waitstaff and acted like a complete pig to the point of slurping a French onion soup that he would "splatter all over the booth," according to one waitress's account.
If De Niro does release a statement, you can just about bet to hear the now oft-repeated phrase among celebrities that they "had no idea" Weinstein was an awful human being.
