The Hard Way of Robert Downey Jr.'s Success | Full Biography (Avengers, Sherlock Holmes, Zodiac)

Robert Downey Jr. is a very talented actor. The endless legal, law enforcement, and judicial favors he received obviously helped. Sadly, those same forgiveness favors would never have been given to a female actor. Exclusion and sexism always. 😮😢

He keeps saying Robert's movies were flops.
In a bunch those earlier films Robert was a supporting actor... not a lead.
It doesn't matter because I've watched most of his movies and always liked his acting and ALWAYS considered him an A list STAR.
He's 1 yr older than me, so I grew up watching him.
Robert Downey Jr. has ALWAYS been a Star !!

This was wonderful and informative. Thank you.

I admire him for his brutal honesty and his well deserved long career

I love him, he's one of the best actors I know.. And I love how he overcame his demons..

Before you do any more videos, please learn famous people names - Marisa and Shepherd.

Comment or the narrator- many mispronounced words

Ludicrous’ wife is light skinned, but she’s far from ugly.
I always though Katt was hilarious for decades. I do like his brand of comedy.
However, calling people’s wives ugly, isn’t cool with me. That isn’t funny. It is childish.

It’s pronounced “Tor-may”

Amen to staying sober 😊

Your basically stating in the first 23 min that every film he did up to that was a failure. Come on. They all weren’t failures.

and now with Hollywood's fortunate collapse he spends his days destroying classic cars

I respect him and know he has the potential to become even more than he is today. ❤

So disappointing to have to listen to a speaker who can’t read!

It would be great if makers of informational videos would at least know how to pronounce their content. What trust can one put on info from someone who hasn't enough experience or knowledge of the world to know how to pronounce 'Greenwich Village' or several really well-known celebrity names that are part of the content. It makes you wonder if the maker grew up in our culture.

If this narrator was paid he should be fired. How do you not know how to pronounce major actor/actresses names?

I always liked him & think he should have won the Oscar for Chaplin. I was SO relieved he never overdosed & got off the drugs!

Roger Eeeee-bert.

Gren-ish Village. Not Greeen-ish Village.

Due Date was like a remake of Planes, Trains & Automobiles (Steve Martin & John Candy) but it was pretty humorous.

RDJ has a genius talent! Less Than Zero, Only You, Tropic Thunder & US Marshals are my faves. Iron Man isn't my genre but I had to see these just for him.
Why does the narrator pronounce very prominent celebrity names incorrectly? Must be AI.

Robert says Obviously it was not a autobiography of him, an attempt to pretend he was not an addict. Here is what he did not say in the interview but in other interviews.

Less than Zero was an exaggeration of myself,” he said. “Then things changed and, in some ways, I became an exaggeration of the character. That lasted far longer than it needed to last.” He pretty much played himself in the film the only thing he did not do was die. That is the only Obvious part.

OMG why does every person in Hollywood have to have the daddy or mommy issue story. yes the father fed him coke since birth and breast fed him via Jack Daniels. First movie I saw him in was Weird Science then less than Zero. Was a decent actor that liked coke pretty common.

Well done!

Well done! Love how the story was told!

Is this read by a human or has an AI voice gotten so good that I can’t tell the difference. So many small, odd mispronunciations. But the one I can’t get over because it’s pronounced the way I think a computer would pronounce it? ‘Bye-op-ic’ … aka/otherwise pronounced as: bio-pic.

Wow, does his dad ever look like John Lovitz. I seriously thought it was John Lovitz actually.

This ideo was so hard to watch as the narrator pronounced the names of about half the actors wrong. It sounds like AI. I couldn't finish the video.

Greenwich is pronouced "grenich"

I have always loved Robert Downey Jr purely because he overcame such addiction to come back a superhero

The AI was pretty good, but it mispronounced several names.

RDJ went through a lot but he survived through it all

Elf

Lolita express... now pretending us to feel pity...

So glad he came through the 💩 alive & well. He’s been a favorite of mine since the 80’s. His movie “The Judge” is one of my top 3 of his. I personally think he’s always been a phenomenal actor. It doesn’t matter how bad an actual movie is, the one shining light in that movie will definitely be him.

Dude is like hunter Biden

His best film - Less than Zero.

Didn't like his take on Sherlock, but I loved Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Glad he retired Iron man also, Great performance, but was getting tiring by the last film. Great actor.

do you use AI / text reader for the narration? You mispronounce some well-known actresses' names... Marissa Tomei "Toe-may" and Cybill Shepherd (Sih buhl). Roger Ebert (ee-bert, not eh-bert).

His father has a lot to answer for. He ruined his son's life.

😮 i fall asleep in iron man 2 since i hate him😂😂😂 i didn't know all of that

I love RD He made some mistakes and never gave up in what he loved most Who didn’t go thru what he did living in the 80’s He doesn’t have to prove anything to me Sometimes suffering makes you stronger!!!!

Keep sober and fame will follow. Fight your demons, they are just inside your head. Most of all Faith in God. God bless you RDJ.

Robert is one of the few true survivors of drug addiction that has not only got his career back but took it by storm!
