Robert De Niro takes a big bite of the hand that feeds him for his new movie What Just Happened.

Shining a light on diva behaviour, he plays a film producer wrestling difficult actors and a drug-addled director.

It is based on the real-life memoirs of the producer of some of De Niro's own films.

Usually noted for his brevity, the election of Barack Obama and a chance to lampoon his own industry have left De Niro in talkative mood.
