Robert Downey Jr. in 'Iron Man'
Robert Downey Jr. plays Iron Man Tony Stark, an industrialist with a billion-dollar fortune who takes over the massive family business from his father. Tony has had to take on responsibilities when he inherited the Stark surname, but his real interest is in inventing and is recognized as a genius inventor in the scientific community.
Robert Downey Jr. was born to act, and in "Iron Man," Downey added his own interpretation to the role, portraying a genius, booze-loving playboy who is playful without being sappy or sophisticated.
"Superhero" and "gangster" seem to be two words that don't go together, but in Robert Downey Jr. they find a match. In his role as Iron Man, such as technology geeks rich family, without some flamboyant gangster is not very reasonable. As a former prodigal son reborn from the ashes, Robert Downey Jr. has clearly used his innate swagger to good effect.
