BREAKING: Robert De Niro to Leave the U.S., Says ‘I Get No Respect Here’
In a move that has both stunned Hollywood and ignited political debate, legendary actor Robert De Niro has reportedly decided to leave the United States, telling close friends and foreign press: “I get no respect here anymore.”
After decades as one of America’s most celebrated actors — with two Oscars, countless iconic roles, and an enduring presence in cinema — De Niro now appears to be turning his back on Hollywood and the country he once proudly called home.
“I Gave Everything to This Country”
According to sources close to the actor, De Niro’s decision was not made lightly. In a recent conversation with European journalists during an international film event, De Niro lamented what he described as a toxic cultural and political environment in the U.S.
“I gave everything to this country — my work, my voice, my passion. Now I’m either mocked, misquoted, or called irrelevant just for speaking my mind,” he reportedly said. “Frankly, I get more respect walking through the streets of Italy than I do in New York.”
Longstanding Feuds and Political Backlash
De Niro’s outspoken political views — especially his harsh criticism of former President Donald Trump — have made him a polarizing figure in recent years. Once universally beloved, the actor has found himself increasingly targeted by online trolls, media pundits, and even fellow celebrities who accuse him of being out of touch or “Hollywood elite.”
In past interviews, De Niro hasn’t held back, famously calling Trump a “wannabe gangster” and a “national disaster.” But it seems the growing backlash to his remarks — even from former fans — has taken a personal toll.
“It’s not about Trump anymore,” he reportedly told a confidante. “It’s about a country that lost its sense of civility. You say one thing, and people want to cancel your entire career.”
Relocating Abroad: Europe or South America?
While De Niro hasn’t officially announced where he plans to move, speculation suggests he may relocate to Italy, where he has deep family roots and longstanding business ties. Others believe he may consider Argentina, where he’s spent significant time in recent years working on international co-productions.
One insider revealed:
“He’s serious. He’s already started talking to lawyers about real estate and dual citizenship options.”
Hollywood Reacts: Support and Shock
De Niro’s announcement has prompted mixed reactions across the entertainment industry.
Some longtime collaborators have expressed sadness and empathy.
Others, especially critics of his political views, have shrugged it off — even celebrating his potential departure as a sign that “Hollywood is finally rejecting performative politics.”
Actor and director Mel Gibson reportedly commented off the record, saying, “We all feel like outsiders sometimes. The question is whether you retreat — or rebuild.”
Fans Divided
On social media, De Niro’s announcement has split his fanbase:
Some praised him for staying true to his convictions.
Others accused him of “abandoning” the very freedoms that made his career possible.
#ByeBob and #DeNiroExile began trending shortly after the news broke.
A Final Curtain Call in America?
Whether this is a permanent move or an emotional response to growing criticism remains to be seen. What’s clear is that Robert De Niro — once a national treasure — now feels unwelcome in the very country that made him a star.
If he follows through, his exit will mark one of the most high-profile celebrity self-exiles in modern memory — and a sobering reflection on the state of discourse in American culture.
As De Niro himself allegedly said before boarding a flight to Europe last week:
“Maybe I’ll come back when respect makes a comeback too.”
