Robert De Niro is on the mend.
The “Goodfellas” star, 82, was photographed with his right arm in a sling while attending a Broadway performance of “Oedipus” at Studio 54 in New York City on Wednesday.
De Niro stepped backstage after the show, where he greeted cast members and showed support for the production.
A rep confirmed to People that the “Raging Bull” star recently underwent a procedure and will be wearing the sling for at least a few more days.
The Post has reached out to De Niro’s rep for further comment.
The Broadway staging of “Oedipus,” which is directed by Robert Icke, reimagines the ancient Greek tragedy as a modern political thriller.
Starring De Niro’s former “Stardust” co-star Mark Strong and Lesley Manville, the production also features a mix of original UK cast members alongside several new Broadway performers.
The show began previews on Oct. 30 and officially opened on Nov. 13. The limited-engagement run is scheduled through Feb. 8 of next year.
De Niro recently made headlines after Jodie Foster said that she wasn’t impressed while working with him on the set of “Taxi Driver” back in 1976.
Foster, 63, recalled meeting the Hollywood legend and opened up about the pair’s time shooting the Martin Scorsese classic together during an appearance at the Marrakech Film Festival on Nov. 30.
“We’d run the lines and run the lines a second and third time,” she began, per Variety. “And I’m sure maybe some of you have been here when Robert De Niro was here.”
“One of our greatest American actors, so proud to have worked with him – not the most interesting person on earth,” Foster, who was only 12 when she played Iris opposite De Niro’s Travis Bickle, added.
However, the “Silence of the Lambs” actress went on to praise her former co-star for taking her “under his wing” nearly 50 years ago.
“He finally walked me through improvisation by the time we had our third lunch together, and it opened my eyes to what acting could be,” Foster recalled.
“And I realized at 12, ‘Oh, it’s my fault because I haven’t brought enough to the table,’” she continued. “I’ve just been saying lines and waiting for my next line and acting naturally, but building a character is something different.”
Foster, whose role as Iris earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress, described De Niro’s teachings as an “epiphany.”
“I remember how excited I was, I remember being kind of sweaty and excited and giggly and coming back up into the hotel room to meet my mom and saying, ‘I’ve had this epiphany,’” she shared.
“I think from there, everything changed,” Foster concluded.
