Robert De Niro walks out of interview leaving journalist angry and confused – we’ve all been there

When interviews go wrong...

You’ve secured a chat with one of the world’s greatest actors, who then ends up walking out on the interview. Now that’s a bad day at the office.

Robert De Niro is a film legend, but he’s living up to his notoriety for being particularly ‘tricky’ in interviews.

The actor, who was promoting his latest film The Intern, terminated his interview with the Radio Times after objecting to what he called “negative inference” from the journalist.

After asking journalist Emma Brockes to pause recording, he apparently ended the conversation by saying, “I’m not doing this darling.”
