According to Business Insider, Warner Bros. e-mailed a different resident in the neighborhood to ask whether De Niro could stop by and watch 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?”
The people denied the actor’s presence, however, when he found a World Cup party in progress and decided to join in.
An unnamed resident told Business Insider that “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 Intern” is directed by Nancy Meyers and the story would center on Anne Hathaway starring as the founder of a successful company who, as part of a new program, takes in a senior citizen (De Niro) to be her intern.
