Robert De Niro said he's happy to play supporting roles as his time as a leading actor is over
Antonio Cerio, the mayor of the Italian town, told local media: “We are ready to welcome him with open arms.”
Robert De Niro has used strong language to describe Donald Trump, saying he would like “to punch him in the face”.
The actor’s ancestors emigrated from Ferrazzano in 1890.
Nowadays Ferrazzano is home to 3,000 residents, and appears ready to welcome one more.
“If after the disappointment of Trump, he wants to take refuge here, we are ready to welcome him,” said Antonio Cerio.
“Naturally it would be an honor and give us great pleasure.”
The local emigration association has suggested making Robert De Niro president of Molise – the region where Ferrazzano lies – if only for a day.
The association noted that the Oscar-winning actor “is tied to his Molise origins and even speaks a good Italian-Molise dialect, even if he doesn’t like to flaunt it”.
Robert De Niro has both American and Italian citizenship.
“I’m going to probably have to move there,” he joked on the day of the election result.
Speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live! show, Robert De Niro conceded that knocking Donald Trump out was now off the table.
“I can’t [punch Donald Trump] now, he’s the president. And I have to respect that position,” Robert De Niro said.
