Along with "The Godfather Part II" and "Heat" co-star Al Pacino, Robert De Niro is without a doubt one of the greatest living actors in Hollywood, with a career spanning over four decades and with two Academy Awards to his name - but you might be surprised to see that Robert De Niro's net worth is also among the highest in Tinsel Town.
De Niro's contributions in front of the camera are more than notorious, having worked with Martin Scorsese on numerous classics (including "Taxi Driver" and "Raging Bull," the latter of which gave him his second Oscar), the better part of Robert De Niro's net worth comes from what he does on the other side of film production.
Besides being an incredibly gifted actor, in fact Robert De Niro's net worth has served him in the past to pursue other ventures such as TriBeCa Productions, a major company that has been behind films like "Rent" and "About a Boy," as well as the TriBeCa Film Festival, one of the most important in the city, which surged from a desire to power up the New York neighborhood it takes its name from after the 9-11 attacks.
Another big part of what makes Robert De Niro's net worth these days is restaurant and hotel chain Nobu revolving around celebrity chef Nobu Matsuhisa and which De Niro owns - and a billionaire famous for dating a pop diva just spent a very high sum to be part of.
According to The Guardian, James Packer, the man best known for being Mariah Carey's current boyfriend, just spent $200 million for a 20 percent stake in the chain, and from there on, certainly a big portion will go to Robert De Niro's net worth.
The deal comes days after the multitalented De Niro was celebrated Melco Crown's Studio City casino in Macau, where he revealed an expensive 15-minute short directed by Scorsese and co-starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
Currently, Celebrity Net Worth lists Robert De Niro's net worth at $200 million.
