He's the patron saint of tough-talking New York cinema, and nobody does the scowl better. Robert De Niro built his legend on looking straight through people in classics like Taxi Driver and Goodfellas, picking up two Oscars and a permanent spot on Hollywood's Mount Rushmore. Let's be honest, he defined modern screen cool before most of today's A-listers were even born.
These days, he flatly refuses to slow down. Between running his Tribeca empire, trading punches with critics, and welcoming baby number seven at 79, he stays squarely in the news. Whether he's doing mob epics or goofy comedies, you just can't take your eyes off him.
