David Krumholtz recently stated that he has various inside stories about Hollywood A-listers that would most probably destroy their career, but he has no intention of revealing such information.

David Krumholtz’s Poor Experience With Robert De Niro
David Krumholtz, an actor best known for his roles in Oppenheimer and Freaks and Geeks, has revealed that he possesses inside information about A-list celebrities that would make his infamous Robert De Niro story feel harmless. However, Krumholtz has claimed that these stories can harm or even damage someone’s career and he has no such intention. He further claims that fame is a very dangerous thing and that we should be aware of it.
I have lots of other intense stories, but the overwhelming majority of them can’t really be told without damaging reputations. I’m not interested in harming anyone. All I’ll say from experience, is that fame is the most hazardous drug. It kills.. even those that remain alive.

The Robert De Niro story in question involves an incident where Krumholtz, a young actor at the time just got his first lead in a short indie movie. The Oppenheimer actor claims that after discussing some things with his director, he caught a glimpse of De Niro in the apartment building he was in. Although he did not speak to the legend, he got to ride the elevator down with his twin children.
He shared this story during a YouTube interview with Inside Of You Podcast.
Krumholtz continued that while attending the Tribeca Film Festival a few years ago, he got to meet the superstar again. He then shared the story of meeting his twins on the elevator which made De Niro laugh out loud. This was all fine until both the actors had to take the elevator and De Niro somewhat verbally abused him by saying that he would take the stairs instead of riding the same elevator with David Krumholtz.
Krumholtz’s recent statement about having more potentially damaging information has sparked curiosity and speculation. However, he has made it clear that he has no desire to use this to harm anyone’s reputation or career. Instead, he prefers to focus on his acting career and his decision highlights the importance of considering the potential consequences of sharing personal information, whether it is negative or newsworthy.
David Krumholtz Did Not Work With Disney For 20 Years Due to His Inflated Ego
The famous actor David Krumholtz confessed his regrets about his actions in one of the parades in 2002 that he had taken part in. The case happened right in the middle of the shooting of The Santa Clause 2. He was invited to a Disney World Christmas parade, and he could bring two more people with him and he was also received as a VIP. However, he chose to get high before the event, which significantly impacted his behavior.
He refused to wear the designated Bernard the Elf costume and rode on a separate carriage instead of participating alongside actress Hilary Duff, as planned. Looking back, Krumholtz acknowledges that his actions were unprofessional and impolite. He expresses regret for causing inconvenience or disappointment, particularly towards Duff. He has since apologized for his actions, acknowledging that he should have done the parade as planned.
Krumholtz’s experience serves as a cautionary tale about the potential consequences of impulsive decisions, particularly when under the influence. It also highlights the importance of professionalism and respect in work environments, regardless of personal affairs. While the incident did tarnish his relationship with Disney, his apology suggests a desire for reconciliation after a long time.
Ok. Last story for a while. This one’s my fave. A tale of real time ego deflation. It’s 2002. I’m 24 years young. I shoot the Santa Clause 2 in Vancouver. It’s been 8 years since we shot the original. I am miserable. Long shoot. It’s raining in Vancouver, all day, err day,…

He shared the story on his X profile. His reappearance as Bernard in the Disney+ series The Santa Clauses is the latest cherry on top, which, once again, points out the steady building of the bridge line between the actor and Disney. He did not work for the multi-billion dollar company 20 years after the incident, however, his return was warmly accepted.
