Twice Oscar nominated actor Robert Downey Junior. he’s had a roller-coaster life and career, playing roles in everything from comedy to esteemed drama, and returning after a personal hiatus that many didn’t think he could recover from. Downey was hired by Marvel to play Iron Man, and it ended up being one of the biggest roles of his life. He played the leader of the Avengers, Tony Stark, in 10 films and, although he is known for being an intense method actor, he was able to keep the role fresh.
Filmmakers Joe AND Antonio Russoaka the Russo Brothers, spoke about it in a recent interview with Vanity Fair, in which they described Downey’s trial, with Joe saying:
“When he comes back to the set, Robert is famous for throwing the piano out the window and climbing on the couch and things like that, as if to get out of the book. He does it because he likes to surprise himself. He likes to keep things fresh. He lights up about it.
Antonio added:
“There was no other way he could have played that character for 10 movies unless he didn’t. Robert has certainly lived a complicated life. He understands the stakes, he understands the loss, he understands the turns that life can take with ups and downs. He’s always looking for that level of depth, that level of complexity. I think he knows that this is why we all come to the movies in the first place.
Downey did a fantastic job playing Tony Stark, a funny, kind, brilliant and selfless leader. I’m so happy that he was given the chance to play the part, which will now forever be linked to him.
