De Niro okay with older roles

Los Angeles: Actor Robert De Niro says he doesn’t mind being cast in older roles now that he is in his 70s. The veteran star has accepted that he’ll never play the romantic lead in a movie ever again, reports contactmusic.com. ‘That’s just life. We can’t play certain parts any more. We’re playing the father or the grandfather and that can be written in a funny way. But you’re not carrying the movie as the young romantic lead – those days are gone,’ he said. ians
