Baldwin Stuns with Pitch-Perfect De Niro Impersonation
25 Sep
Summary
- Baldwin revealed an uncanny Robert De Niro impression to comedian Jordan Jensen.
- He uses the impression when disciplining his seven young children.
- Baldwin performed the De Niro impression for the actor himself on set.
Alec Baldwin has revealed a remarkable talent: an uncanny impression of fellow actor Robert De Niro. During a recent interview, Baldwin explained that his children often tease him because his angry tone morphs into De Niro's distinctive voice. He shared that this impression is frequently employed when he needs to discipline his seven young children.
Baldwin further disclosed that he has performed this impression for De Niro himself. He recalled a specific instance on the set of their 2006 film, 'The Good Shepherd,' directed by De Niro. Baldwin recounted De Niro's directorial advice, emphasizing a slower pace for his performance and conveying a sense of not caring about Matt Damon's character.
Baldwin's ability to channel De Niro so accurately even surprised his interviewer, who commented on his facial morphing resembling CGI. Despite the compliment, Baldwin humbly suggested others do the impression better. The actor, born and raised on Long Island, has a history of impersonations, including an Emmy-winning portrayal of Donald Trump.
