An extraordinary dinner party was recently held in Malibu, comprising three Hollywood heavyweights.
Robert De Niro, 80, Snoop Dogg, 52, and Austin Butler, 32 — who plays a villain in Dune: Part Two — broke bread at a private residence in the tony coastal town of Los Angeles.
The Gin and Juice rapper’s son, Champ Medici (real name Cordell Broadus), released photographs and vids of the star-studded event on Instagram on Friday.
‘Champ DeNiro Elvis Snoop,’ the 27-year-old captioned the carousal. ‘Dinner at the Malibu house, talking numbers’
While Champ didn’t divulge more about the conversation between the celebrities, the quartet certainly seemed friendly, with Snoop even joking with DeNiro about his roots.

Champ Medici (real name Cordell Broadus), the Gin and Juice rapper’s son, documented the star-studded event and released photographs and vids on Instagram on Friday.
“You didn’t know I had Italian in my blood, huh?” Snoop asked the Oscar winner in a brief video, to which DeNiro hastily waved his hand and said, ‘I knew that.’
In one photo, Elvis is seen sitting on a couch by a coffee table with Robert and Snoop, all three smiling.
The rapper and Robert both make peace signs, and Robert holds a tiny puppy on his lap.
Snoop has two boys, Corde, 29, and Cordell, 27, as well as a daughter, Cori, 24, with his wife, Shante Broadus, whom he’s been married to since 1997.
He has a 25-year-old son, Julian, from a prior relationship.
Cordell, a former football player, committed to UCLA in February 2015 but left in August of the same year to pursue various creative endeavors.
He then moved into the entertainment sector, landing a tiny role in the 2012 comedy Mac and Devin Go to High School, with his father and Wiz Khalifa.
Today, he directs mostly through his film company, Film School Productions, with a concentration on the documentary Son of Kings, which traces his family’s ancestry and the journey of a Black man in America.

‘You didn’t know I had Italian in my blood, huh?’ Snoop asked the Oscar winner in a quick clip, to which DeNiro quickly waved his hand and replied, ‘I knew that’
‘My whole life I just always heard stories about my family and the legacy that, not only my dad but my grandfather and the ones that came before us,’ he told Women’s Wear Daily in 2020.
‘I just always wanted to tell something that I knew, because I took a writing class at UCLA for film and the professor always said, write what you know. I know my family, so I want to start right there in my film career.’
Meanwhile, Butler, who is currently dating Cindy Crawford’s daughter Kaia Gerber, 22, has been photographed opposite Jodie Comer in the new crime epic The Bikeriders about a midwestern motorcycle gang the Vandals.
The crime epic is directed by Mud’s Jeff Nichols and is set to be released in June 2024
