Born April 4, 1965, in New York City, Robert Downey Jr. began acting as a young child. He made his first film appearances and was a cast member on Saturday Night Live in the 1980s, but his growing success was marred by years of struggles with drug abuse. Eventually turning his life around, he earned a resurgance of critical and popular acclaim, and is considered one of Hollywood's A-list actors.

'Iron Man 3' must-watch April movie

Iron Man 3
Release date: April 26
Why you should see it: Just a year after the release of The Avengers, Robert Downey Jr steps back into the role of Tony Stark for this Marvel sequel. There's a new director in Shane Black, new armour thanks to the Mark 42 suit, and a fresh threat from Sir Ben Kingsley's sinister terrorist The Mandarin. For those who can't wait until late April, it's worth seeking out Warren Ellis and Adi Granov's Extremis comic book arc, which serves as inspiration for the movie.
