De Niro was in Brooklyn's Cobble Hill neighborhood Thursday to film "The Intern" and, according to a neighbor, he wanted to take a break to watch the crucial World Cup game between the United States and Germany. The neighbor told Business Insider, their apartment building got an email from Warner Bros. asking if they could help De Niro see the game.

"Our lead actor, Robert DeNiro, would very much like to watch the World Cup game, today at 12p," the email said. "Would it be possible to place a small portable satellite on the building rooftop ASAP and run a cable to the street to help facilitate this request?"

According to the neighbor, De Niro apparently ended up getting invited to a nearby house where people were watching the game.

"We got another email from a neighbor saying he talked to the crew and apparently he found a house of people watching it and joined them," the neighbor said.
