Robert Downey, Jr. (b. 1965) is an Academy Award nominated actor. He starred as Mr. Willowby in the 1995 TV special Mr. Willowby's Christmas Tree.

Downey was a cast member of Saturday Night Live during the 1985 - 1986 season. Graduating to comedic film roles, such as the all-star Soapdish (with Sally Field, Kevin Kline, Whoopi Goldberg, Teri Hatcher, and Kathy Najimy), and playing Albert Einstein in That's Adequate, Downey turned to dramatic roles. Nominated for an Oscar for playing Charlie Chaplin in Richard Attenborough's Chaplin, Downey appeared in smaller roles while battling personal problems. He re-emerged with a turn on Ally McBeal and more artistic films such as Good Night and Good Luck (the story behind Edward R. Murrow's journalistic coverage of Joseph McCarthy) and The Singing Detective (with Katie Holmes). Most recently, he starred as Marvel's Iron Man.
