PATRIOT GAMES

In a glittering career spanning 60 years, Hollywood legend Robert De Niro has starred in some of the greatest movies of all time. Now aged 81, the New Yorker could be forgiven for dialling down his work commitments. Instead, he is taking his first major role in a TV series as he headlines Netflix’s muchanticipated six-part thriller Zero Day.

Leading an all-star cast, De Niro plays George Mullen, a former US president who’s called out of retirement after a cyberattack results in thousands of fatalities and brings America to the brink of national disaster.
