Iron Man 2 is a big budget, event movie and that means a movie set fraught with explosions, stunt men and even occasionally, rampaging robots. Luckily they have Robert Downey Jr. there to keep the metal menace under control.

BANG Media claims that while filming a scene in which stunt men dressed as robotic villains rampage through the set, an extra was injured. Here’s where it gets a little hard to believe. They say the extra was injured when he was hit by “a stuntman in an iron costume”. Now I’m not actually on Jon Favreau’s set, but generally when you want to dress a guy up like an iron robot you don’t actually dress him in iron. More likely it would have been light plastic spray painted to look like iron, which shouldn’t have really injured anyone.

But apparently an extra was injured while filming a robot scene in some fashion. Unfortunately no one noticed, except Robert Downey Jr. who their sources say, “Robert, who wasn’t in the scene, suddenly noticed one extra twisting in pain and moaning.” The story goes that Robert then ran across the set, charged into the scene braving rampaging robots while yelling “Cut! Cut!” to save the extra. [SOURCE]

A few days ago Robert was at the 2009 Los Angeles Film Festival’s Opening Night Premiere Of Paper Man. We had issues with the gallery so I couldn’t add the pictures. However, the gallery is now fixed so the pictures have been added!

I’ve added to the gallery a new poster of Sherlock Holmes featuring Robert. It looks great! You can see the poster with a click here or below.

The new movie “The Soloist” is a bit long and has several unanswered plot points, but it also is probably the best performance Robert Downey Jr. has ever given.

Downey is one of the better actors around these days. Forget about his news-making personal demons and troubles, he still does great work.

“The Soloist” originally was scheduled for release late last year, but the studio honchos probably didn’t want this prestigious movie to get lost in the hoopla of Downey’s work in two other 2008 releases, “Iron Man” and “Tropic Thunder.” Read the rest of this entry »
