De Niro Kicked Out of His Own Hotel by Security
26 Apr
Summary
- Robert De Niro was denied entry to his own hotel.
- Security mistook the actor for a homeless person.
- De Niro praised security for doing their job well.

Hollywood legend Robert De Niro experienced an unusual incident where he was denied entry to his own hotel, The Greenwich Hotel in TriBeCa. This occurred while he was filming for the movie 'Being Flynn', in which he portrayed Jonathan Flynn, a homeless father.
De Niro had been on set all day, fully embodying the character of a disheveled, homeless man. Upon returning to the hotel, the security staff did not recognize him due to his extensive transformation for the role. Consequently, they refused him access.
Far from being upset, De Niro expressed satisfaction with the security team's actions. He viewed being turned away as validation of his commitment to method acting and his ability to completely immerse himself in a character, making him unrecognizable even to those familiar with him.
