The picture caught the eye of a local lawyer Mario D’Elia, who sent a letter to police, explaining the actor would need a nautical licence and permit to drive a water taxi, and has asked cops to check the movie star’s credentials.

The actor laughed off the drama when asked about it on Friday, saying that other than getting lost in space (in his new movie), turning in Venice by boat is one of the most difficult situations he had faced.
