Robert Downey Jr. storms out of interview

Robert Downey Jr. stormed out of a sitdown interview with the UK Channel 4. He was doing a round of interviews to promote the new "Avengers" movie when on reporter asked him a question he didn't want to answer.

Imagine living the rest of your life knowing RDJ hates you...

[SoyIttara]

He did it PERFECT. The interviewer had that passive-agressive attittude... he deserved that.

[greenstuff]

The title of this video is misleading, Robert handled this interview like a boss, and left in a calm manner

[ShubhamPatil-cbdk]

"Jarvis get me out of here."

[lordmmx]

you can see on his breathing that he started to be pissed off right in beginning of question

[cyd_hunter]

"I'm just asking questions"
"...right, bye"

[avanishgupta]

"Your foot is starting to jump a little bit, you better get to your next question'
My god, I just Love RDJ.

[CallMeGaffer]

RDJ reacted perfectly. Didn't use aggression or dive into it. That reporter is well known for asking people douchy questions.

[Spckeck]

He sits down for a promo interview, gets flat out ambushed by a question that belongs on 60 minutes THEN the sleazy putz has the guts to laugh as he's walking out... Rob, I applaud your ability to avoid kicking his teeth down his smug throat.

[FleurPillager]

I would walk out too. How can he answer such a personal question in a minute or two.

[r.h.]

May want to look up the meaning of "storms out" versus "politely gets up and leaves."

[Richbund]

You're wrong, he did not "storm out" of the interview. He did not react to the inappropriate, insensitive, tasteless questions with any aggression, he didn't say anything mean or nasty. He was very calm and cordial, and even said to the douche-bag reporter that he was a good guy, just a little to much Diane Sawyer and walked out. Who ever wrote the title for this video does not grasp or understand the use of the english language, and appears to only be interested in sensationalizing it. Best to describe what it really is, don't you agree?

This literally had nothing to do with The Avengers, I'm glad he left

[mercedesthomas]

I really respect how even when walking out of an interview, Robert Downey Jr. does so calmly and maturely. The interview should have been about the Avengers. There's a time and a place for everything, and Downey has answered questions about his past in previous interviews. But when this is clearly an interview about the Avengers, those questions had no place.

[mgway]

He didn't "storm out". He simply walked out. He was classy about it

[harleysu]

My god his face from 1:15 to 1:26 is so hard to watch
His personalities and past are actually very similar to Tony Stark when you think about it

[cjay]

I love how the camera man zoomed in at his knowing "oh god, he done fucked up"

[nmn]

That was a cool and calm response to a clearly uncomfortable question that shouldn't really be asked at an interview about a film. If you want to delve into a troubled past why not bring up some of the troubles Downey's character has and see if he relates and draws from his own past. That would be an actually interesting question too!

[shrirajreddy]

He maintained his composure and didnt yell, much respect.

"It's getting a little Diane Sawyer" I almost fell over XD
