The 69-year-old actor said that his former &quot;This Boy&#39;s Life&quot; co-star has now taken over as Scorsese&#39;s big screen star of choice and he is only asked to hand out awards these days, reported Showbizspy. <img alt="Robert De Niro" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/oct/Robert-De-Niro.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 400px; " /> Robert De Niro &quot;What mostly gets me here is to present awards to other people. I have handed out Oscars to Sean Penn, Eli Wallach and Francis Coppola. I have honored Meryl Streep at the Kennedy Centre. I have handed out about a half dozen lifetime achievement awards to Marty Scorsese, from the BAFTA to the Golden Globes,&quot; De Niro said. &quot;So even though Leonardo DiCaprio has taken my place in Marty&#39;s movies, I am apparently the go-to guy in handing out the hardware. I have gotten pretty good at giving out awards but frankly I have gotten out of practice accepting an award myself. It has been awhile except for getting that medal from the Irish American League when they could not get Liam Neeson,&quot; he added.u00a0
