How Robert Downey Jr. First Met Susan Downey
Although it wasn’t love at first sight, Susan Downey recalled the first time she laid eyes on the actor back in 2003 when they were filming Gothika. Starring Halle Berry and Downey Jr. in the leads, Susan Downey (then Susan Levin) served as the producer of the movie. In an interview, she revealed that when they had lunch, she found Downey quite weird but interesting.
“We were up in Montreal prepping for Gothika, and we had lunch with the director and Halle Berry. Everybody else ordered Japanese, but Robert told us how oatmeal was the ‘superfood.’ He brought his own packets of oatmeal to have at lunch. And he had this box of various herbs and stuff. And then he started doing these yoga moves. I mean, he was interesting but weird.”
Well, not the worst first meeting. Being happily married for 18 years, the world wishes them a happy marriage anniversary and hopes that they continue their love life as it is.
