- Her lawsuit, filed in July 2021, came after De Niro‘s Canal Productions had filed a $6 million lawsuit against Robinson in New York state court in August 2019, alleging that Robinson, who had been the company’s vp of production and finance, had abused company credit cards and binged “astounding hours of TV shows,” while on the clock.

- “Robert De Niro is someone who has clung to old mores,” the complaint states. “He does not accept the idea that men should treat women as equals. He does not care that gender discrimination in the workplace violates the law. Ms. Robinson is a casualty of this attitude.”
