From Iron Man to Ladies Man
Filed under: Film Flickers > Robert Downey Jr.
Hollywood has a Hugh Hefner biopic in the works, and Robert Downey Jr. is in the lead for the top spot in the film!
After Iron Man's huge and unexpected success, RDJ is one of the hottest properties in town!
It's not a 100 percent done deal, but sources say Hefner has signed off on Downey to play him in the movie, which has the working title Playboy.
Hef reportedly took a liking to Downey after seeing Iron Man and "admiring his humor and skill in showing his vulnerability."
We'd see the movie!
Boobies and Downey…what a combo!
Throw in Andy Dick too, just for gigglez.

You know apart from all his drug problems, Robert is a very fine actor, I have admired his chops for years. I'm very happy for him that he appears to have deep-sixed his demons. I always thought that he should have won the Oscar for "Chaplin" it was a tour-de-force performance.
does any other person my age think he is amazing orgazmic?
ah, i love robert downey jr, that should be pretty cool.
Boo has always been the shit even high! lol
RDJ is so much better looking…
robert downey is a sexy biatch
OMG he is sooo Sexy!! He should be the sexiest man alive! I think he a great actor so he can pull it off!!

Looks like George Michael with those shades and that salt -n- pepper hair.
RDJ has been & is one of the most talented actors in Hollywood. If you want to see an outstanding performance watch him in the movie Chaplin. He nailed Charlie.
Robert Downey Jr. is an excellent actor, and he's dead sexy! I'm so glad that he's becoming really successful now. He deserves every great role that WILL come his way!
Robert Downey Junior is definately one of the best actors of our time ! I know he could play that role really well !
Re: oldfart – So true, he should have won the Oscar for Chaplin. That was an incredible performance.
Robert Downey, Jr., as Hugh Hefner — BRILLIANT casting. Love me some of that RDJ!!!! He's hot and talented. I think he's so much more than George Clooney. I mean — come on!!!!
Re: bailey –
Well I'm not sure how old you are… but yes… he's amazingly orgasmic.
Robert Downey Jr. is one the finest, most gifted and talented actors of our time. Not to mention he's incredibly sexy. He would make a great Hugh Hefner. Its so good to see him back on his feet and in the limelight. He deserves all the success in the world.
I thought Robert Downey Jr. looked so freaking hot in the movie! I mean, his body…….. damn! He made a nice comeback!
HE IS SO HOT!!!!
He's always been really talented. I'm glad he's got things sorted out so he can work more. His movie choices are also usual good. Looking forward to seeing more Rob Downey Jr.
Uh, yeah… playing a prolonged adolescent whose only talent is exploiting people's insecurities would be a REAL career boost for Downey, Uh-huh.
I think he would be good for the part!! After I saw him in IronMan I thought he was hot as long as he keeps dying his hair.
I have always loved to watch RDJ. I have loved him ever since "Chances Are" he is so sexy! I am glad he ditched the drugs and is now back to give ME more! Thanks RDJ!!!
Never thought RDJ was hot until Iron Man….I would definitely rock his world!!
Awesome!
Downey is probably the best actor of this generation. If you have any doubts watch "Less Than Zero". I hope that he's able to keep his head on straight as he deals with all of this "overnight success". I love this guy!
You would you snactimoantimous meth-man pigezoid..
Ive seen your peen
You know I never thought RDJ was that great. But after Iron Man, there needed to be a clean up in the aisle. He is positively beautiful
Oh my goodness Iron Man brought him back. He is a friggen delicious hottie.
RDJ is amazingly talented and although I am happy to see him being appreciated by every one again I feel like no one knew he existed before Iron Man, except for the true fans. To be honest I think playing the role of Hef is degrading- makes him look even more of a womanizer and plus acting with all those bimbos yuck. Of course I will go watch it if he does decide to take the role. I loved Robert since I was first introduced to this beautifully MULTI-talented man and i will continue to support him and love him no matter what movie roles because he is the best and is the only actor who can touch me emotionally. And of course he is SEXIEST man alive. He is old enough to be my father but that doesn't stop me from fantasizing about him. I LOVE ROBERT DOWNEY JR.
Terrific actor - glad he finally got his life together. Looking sexy lately too.

LOVELOVE RDJ
As an ex-addict myself, RDJ is my hero. He cleaned up, didn't make a reality show out of it, and is now becoming a super star. He's an inspiration about how to rehab with dignity.
Re: San Francisco – I agree.
PERFECT
This would be a fantastic match!! I'd definitely go and see it! LOOOVE RDJ!
I'm so happy for him! I've always been a huge fan of RDJ and his acting abilities. I'm so glad he has straightened his life out and found a lovely lady to share his life with. I'll definitely see the movie if he's in it!
I'm really happy RDJ has been able to get past his "troubles." He's immensely talented and I too would go see him as Hef! RDJ is way sexier, even when Hef was young!
i think he is a great actor, and im glad to see he overcame his drug problems, it took him a while. but at least he didnt succumb to it and drift away. He fought back and is rebuilding his career, he looks great.
i can't wait to fuck the shit out of that mf. next time i see him, he's mine.
Re: gini – Step off bitch! I saw him first, circa 1985 or so. He was cute in Weird Science, sexy as hell in Chaplin
RDJ is so hot. Too bad he's so short. I met him in Sundance and he was very courteous and gave me his autograph obligingly. A real class act. His wife is very lucky!
I want to know when the Robert Downey Jr. bio pic is coming out?
Who cares about Hugh Heffner?

Is IRON MAN the best movie ever?
YES! Nuff said!
i love this guy. in iron man i couldnt stop thinking about how hot he was
Throw in Andy Dick for giggles??? How disgusting. Throw him in his urinated-bushes for gag factor. Dick doesn't belong on the same page as RDJ, nonetheless the same article. Keep that old, dick-flapping hag away from the cameras. He's absolutely disgusting. I hope he never gets on camera again. His act was completely overshadowed by his repulsive behavior. RDJ is gorgeous, a diamond in the rough when he's on drugs, and a struggling talent. But he HAS PLENTY of talent. Hugh Hefner wouldn't even allow Dick on the damned set. Get a clue Perez. Sometimes you just miss the damn bus.
Perez, you should campaign the silver fox (the Coop) to be Hef…He would be purrrfect!!!!
betcha he's at the beginning of the spiral again….let's watch….he doesn't deal with success well…
as good as Rober D. is they missed the boat on this one. They should get Charlie Sheen to play the part!!!!!!!!!!!
I am just a bit curious..the magazine HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP reported his profile was found on the famous uniformed men seeking affairs site UniformedDate.com last week and he was seeking his military woman there. wow!!
this dude has really step up his game,he's a recovering addict ,GOD has really blessed this dude..you got my respect,GOD BLESS RDJ AND HIS FAMILY..
HEY #66 TELL YOU MAMA TO PUT DOWN THE PIPE….
NOTHING LESS THAN PERFECT CASTING
Ah, that role belongs to Bill Maher! He is Hef's doppelganger. How in the hell could Downey Jr. ugly himself up enough to play Hef. He'd have to wear an jaw prosthetic. But buy tickets to a commercial with RDJ in it. He is a FINE actor.
"SERIOUSLY" WITH ALL DUE RESPECT TO MY FELLOW BLOGGERS, HOW CAN ANY BODY SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT THIS MAN,HE'S BEEN AROUND THE BLOCK AND SURVIVED…
"#4 JO" I CAN GET A BOOTLEG OF IRON MAN AND WE CAN WATCH IT WHILE YOU SIT ON MY FACE AND I'LL EAT YOUR DOUHGNUT…
I LOVE DOUGHNUTS "DOOOH"
LET ME REPHRASE THAT "I LOVE EATING DOUGHNUTS"
By the time of Less Than Zero (1987), Too Much Sun (1991), Soapdish (1991), Chaplin (1992), and Richard III (1995)—Robert Downey, Jr. (born 1965) had both feet planted firmly in acting. From comedy to drama to Shakespearean tragedy. Rent these movies and watch them, if you've never seen them, before you put your foot in your mouth.
You can't hold a great guy with immense talent down.
And he is far, far from ever being a has been.
Eleven to 25 year olds have not been around long enough to be eligible to use the term "has been" in ANY context, yet. And probably shouldn't be on this site anyway.
Iron Man (2008) is proof that Life is still rocking after 40.
HE IS AWESOME!! He had amazing talent and would be perfect!
AHH IM SO EXCITED!
I purrr him
Robert Downey Jr. has more class, intelligence and good looks in his little finger than Hefner has had his whole lifetime.
.
Playing that over-rated skeeze would be a major come down for the truly talented actor that Downey is.
It's truer than most of the stuff you stick on this blog. RDJ is one of the most talented and under-rated actors of our time. He's brought a lot of class and experience to every project he's ever worked on–kinda like Mutt Lange.
And Mutt Lange did not have an affair. He is NOT ugly either. I've seen a few pictures of him–the ones he hasn't bought the rights to. I don't know why he is so shy about his appearance. Then again, I've never liked men who were conventionally attractive. Mutt is better looking than most men his age. Hell, he's better looking than ALL the men in the hick town where I live. Mutt and Shania were too different to begin with. Their villa was very secluded, and the isolation got to Shania in the end. Mutt didn't know how to deal with it. He is too busy with his work to worry about his personal life and his marital status. It was like his fifth marriage so I doubt he's crying in his beer. Shania will probably be married to some C&W hunk by the end of next year. The tabloids always like to put a spin on breakups to sell more magazines.
I would hardly called Ironman an "unexpected" success.
re: back off #64
I think Robert Downey jr is an amazing actor and it is so wonderful to see him move on from the past and celebrate his wonderful future successes! He is an inspiration to the rest of us.
i love him forever. hes been a great actor…even when he had his ups and downs
Nice to see a genuine comeback..I've always thought Robert was awesome…good for him!!
Re: Kari – Well said…
I'm really happy to see him doing well. I've been a fan of him since the Ally McBeal days. He had a rough patch in there for a few years, but I'm glad to see him happy and healthy and getting work again. I mean, who WOULDN'T want to se emore of him? He's a FOX! Congrats RDJ!
ugh i love him !
Jim Carrey for Hugh!!!!!!!!!!!!
can someone pls tell me the brand of RDJr's sunnies? i want a pair! now!
This should be a sweet sweet flesh-fest. I'm popping a boner just thinking about it.
