De Niro's acting needs no introduction. His epic filmography, including The Godfather 2, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, and many others has resulted in a number of accolades, including two Academy Awards and two Golden Globes. However, his zest for wowing his fans hasn't decreased even after decades.

The actor recently starred in the Netflix Series 'Zero Day', a thriller series that follows a former American President appointed as the lead investigator of a cyber-attack causing the nation to go haywire. The series consists of six episodes that were released on 20th February. It also features the acting talents of Lizzy Caplan, Jesse Plemons, Angela Bassett, Joan Allen and many others.
