Fans React To Robert Downey Jr’s Bald Head-‘Please Grow It Back Babe’
The actor is known for his hairstyle which has become synonymous with his role as Iron Man/Tony Stark. While that may have been the case, the actor showed his new look at a red carpet event for his documentary, ‘Sr’ which is based on the life of his father.
In the pictures here, we can see Downey Jr showing his head to the music band Duran Duran who have been shocked by his transformation. And yet, there was some method behind this decision. It turns out that the actor shaved his head in order to prepare for his new role in the series ‘The Sympathizer.’
And as part of that process, it appears that Downey Jr resisted the temptation to wear a bald cap. And in the process of doing so, he got the help of his children who decided to shave it off. In the video here, we can see that his two sons, Exton and Avri, have shaved his hair.
They have massive smiles on their faces, as it was clearly an occasion to remember. The post was captioned by the following comments: “The things we do for our work… and our kids. #Sympathizer set ready.” The fans on social media had a lot to say about the matter.
A certain subset of people felt that the new look did not make Downey Jr come across very well. Meanwhile, others praised the actor for getting his children involved in something that ultimately helped him get ready for his role.
One person wrote: “Oh yeah it’s really awesome what you’re doing for the kids everyone else can take a hike if they don’t like it,” while another person stated: “He still look so good but I can t, like please grow it back babe. How am I supposed to say to my friends rdj don t look his age when this happens.”
