The 76-year-old actor joined host Stephen Colbert through a video chat for 'The Late Show' and detailed on how the star is keeping himself active staying at home.

As cited by The Hollywood reporter, the seasoned actor appeared with a bearded look, and Colbert greeted him to the show by saying: "You're looking very distinguished."

Upon asking about how he spends his time at home during the self-isolation period, the actor summed up his activities saying: "Read scripts, on the phone, work out, try to stay alive."

'The Irishman' actor also explained that he has been lifting wights "to keep bone mass strong" and doing a lot of cardio and other routine exercises such as using a treadmill.

During the video for the late-night chat show, the seasoned actor also offered his thoughts on the current administration's response to the virus.

Meanwhile, Colbert who created a hypothetical situation about a coronavirus themed movie asked De Niro about his preference for which real-life figure he would like to play.

Referring to the New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, the 'Taxi Driver' actor said: "Cuomo... he's doing what a president should do."

In March, through a recorded video message, the veteran actor encouraged everybody to practice self-isolation and urged people to stay indoors during these trying times.
