When it comes to making a spectacular comeback, perhaps no other actor has had a glorious one as Robert Downey Jr. He is the perfect example of how one can meet their salvation after going through the darkest phase in their life and turn over a new leaf. 

You might not know this, but Robert wasn’t Marvel’s first choice for Tony Stark in the first ‘Iron Man’ movie. When the movie was initially being chalked out, Robert was an actor who was not in the good books of many directors and producers. Turns out, he had developed a reputation of being a screw-up along with a history of drug abuse. Quite difficult to believe right? But sadly, it’s true. 

But it was director Jon Favreau who never once doubted Robert’s talent and strongly believed in him. He stood his ground and convinced everyone that only Robert could play Iron Man and bring out the true essence of the superhero. 

When we look through his career graph today, he is the example of a rising phoenix. He is one of the highest paid actors in the world and if reports are to be believed, he is actually getting paid $100 million for ‘Avengers: Infinity War’. If that’s not success, then what is? 

Talking about Robert, and why Favreau wanted him to play Tony Stark, he said in an interview to Texas Radio station, “Everybody knew he was talented. Certainly, by studying the Iron Man role and developing that script I realised that the character seemed to line-up with Robert in all the good and bad ways. And the story of Iron Man was really the story of Robert’s career.”

Tony Stark immediately became a global favourite, not only because of the Iron Man suit but mostly because of his wit and charm and the essence of awesomeness which was brought to life by Robert. So here are 11 of the best quotes by the man himself:
