Jennifer Lawrence has returned to the front of the stage recently. After taking a much-needed break from watching back-to-back movies for seven years, she reflects on the different experiences she’s had along the way. One of those experiences is working with acting legend Robert De Niro. The two were co-stars in movies like Silver Linings Playbook and Joyso have spent a lot of time together, so what is the Don’t look up star thinks of his famous stoic collaborator?
Lawrence recently did an interview with Vogue where she answered 73 questions about her life and career. When the interviewer asked her to tell the most “quintessential Robert De Niro story,” she was ready with the perfect anecdote. The actress talked about what Godfather Part II alum was like off-screen, and what happened when Lawrence invited him to his rehearsal dinner. She says:
It’s hysterical and very Robert De Niro, so JLaw definitely got the mission. De Niro is not one to talk and does not like to do interviews and press to promote his films. Meanwhile, Lawrence is known for her bubbly and outgoing personality. These two must balance well on set. Also, I fully understand where De Niro is coming from. Everyone knows what it’s like to attend a social event you don’t want to attend, and Lawrence is so kind of giving him permission to go.
Both of these actors have big movies coming out soon, so we have a lot to look forward to during the fall movie season. Laurent plays in Pavement, an A24 film about a soldier who has difficulty returning home from Afghanistan as he suffers from a brain injury. The film will be available to AppleTV+ subscribers on November 4, 2022 and will make its theatrical debut at the Toronto International Film Festival. She is also set to star as controversial Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes in an Adam McKay-directed film titled Bad blood. The two have already collaborated on 2021 Don’t look up.
Robert De Niro has also been very busy participating in a variety of projects. He will star alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese The Moonflower Slayers. The film is a detective genre about J. Edgar Hoover’s investigation into the murder of members of the Osage tribe. The film won’t be released until next year and will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. This film marks a long-standing collaboration between De Niro and Scorsese. He clearly enjoys working with his favorites. The actor will also make an appearance in amsterdam from director David O’Russell, who is also a frequent collaborator with Lawrence.
These two are both amazing actors with decades of Hollywood stories to share, and probably a lot about each other. Personally, I hope that these two will soon work together again because the result is always spectacular. In the meantime, you can see what these two have in store by following our 2022 movie release schedule.
