De Niro and Chen were also seen at the screening of Partir Un Jour (Leave One Day) at the 78th Annual Cannes Film Festival.
De Niro and Tiffany had graced the Cannes Film Festival in 2023 as well, just a month after the couple welcomed their daughter Gia. Apart from Gia, De Niro has five other children.
Labelling Trump as “America’s philistine president,” De Niro slammed his proposal about 100 per cent tariffs on movies made outside the United States. “He (Trump) has cut funding and support to the arts, humanities and education. And now he announced a 100% tariff on films made outside the United States. You can’t put a price on connectivity,” De Niro said.
