Robert Downey Jr. has had many Hollywood lives. In the '80s he was a teen heartthrob and a cast member of Saturday Night Live. In the '90s he gave stand-out performances in Chaplin and Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers.

Then Downey Jr. went into a period where he became more famous for his substance abuse struggles than his acting career. But to the delight of movie fans, he has turned things around and revived his career.

Part of his revival was thanks to his portrayal of Iron Man. Why did Marvel Studios and Paramount Pictures take a chance on Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, despite his issues? Let's find out.

    Robert Downey Jr should've won an Oscar for Chaplin.

    Tony Stark is so good at playing Robert Downey Jr
  • @imqvlogs
    More than 30yrs of struggle to be where he is today... moral of the story....NEVER GIVE UP!!
  • @NG-nf2mz
    He doesn't play the role of Tony Stark. He is Tony Stark.
  • Are you telling me his father wasn't Howard Stark?
  • No one can play better Iron-man than RDJ as there is no other Wolverine better than Hugh Jackman
  • Robert Downey Jr - Iron Man Ryan Reynolds - Deadpool Hugh Jackman - Wolverine Chris Hemsworth - Thor Alan Rickman - Professor Snape Arnold Schwarzenegger - Terminator Heth Ledger - Joker These characters are irreplaceable, no other actor can fit the role better than these actors.

    Susan saved him. The power of a good wife can turn one’s luck around completely.
  • His best role is playing himself as Tony Stark. If he never wins an Oscar he deserves an honorary one.
  • Idk man, when I am watching any Tony Stark scene it just feels so natural, like he is not even acting. I dont think I can name a better combination of actor/character in the cinema world...
  • He's one of the few lucky ones that didn't die but instead cleaned up and worked hard to become a top star in the industry.
  • "I'm a Dude Playing A Dude Disguised as Another Dude" from a great black actor no doubt. ;-)
  • I think one of the reasons RDJ played Stark so well is because both of them start off in a similar mindset. Stark was a self-absorbed partier who had daddy issues; RDJ was a self-absorbed partier who had daddy issues. Maybe it's just me, but I saw RDJs life improving along with the film life of Stark. In short: RDJ related to Stark because he was about to play the character through a time in life that he (The real life man) had already gone through.
  • He is believer. Lots of actors downed role iron Man role because that character not A list superhero but Downey believe that role and he nailed it
