Robert DeNiro frequently plays characters on the big screen that make money illegally and avoid police at all costs, but the actor is now in some trouble of his own off screen.
The Smoking Gun reports he owes the IRS $6.4 million. To be exact, the two-time Academy Award winner's tax lien is for $6,410,449.20.
The notice was given to DeNiro three months ago and lists his residence as an investment building in his name at 114 Hudson St. in New York.
As The Smoking Gun reported, the IRS files a lien against a taxpayer's property when they "neglect or fail to pay a tax debt" and that it "protects the government's interest in all your property, including real estate, personal property and financial assets."
It is widely documented that the actor has his hand in multiple flourishing investments and was a big part in revitalizing Tribeca after 9/11.
The actor should not have much trouble paying the sum, as Fox News reports he is worth more than $200 million a year and pays $125,000 a month to live in one of the city's most expensive pieces of real estate on Central Park West.
