Robert Downey Jr. Support Charities

Tony Stark a.k.a. "Iron Man" is a self-proclaimed genius, billionaire and playboy. However, he is also a philanthropist and Robert Downey Jr. seems to live with this attitude as well. According to Inquisitr, the "Sherlock Holmes" star and wife, Susan Downey are launching a charity initiative called Random Act Funding. The couple did this to raise funds for different causes including the Motion Picture Television Fund, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and the Anti-Recidivism Coalition.

Robert Downey Jr. said that he filmed it over the Easter weekend, which explains the Easter Bunny costume. Last year, the "Iron Man" star also initiated a similar program where he raised $2 million for Julia's House, a children's charity hospice.
