Why did Robert Downey Jr. Walk Out on an Interview with Channel 4?
Anchor Krishnan Guru-Murthy of Channel 4 News isn't afraid to push boundaries during his interviews. He asks questions most would admit are thought-provoking, but somehow he's managed to piss off not one, but two celebrities with his probing interviews.
Robert Downey Jr. was making the promotional rounds of interviews in London for his role as "Iron Man/Tony Stark" when Guru-Murthy started to ask about his political affiliation, post-incarceration. RDJ began to answer his question quite diplomatically, despite being obviously bothered by the question, "Are we promoting a movie?"
Then, when Guru-Murthy dug further into his relationship with his father, RDJ was out of there. Guess his armor wasn't in place for the interview... watch at around 5:00 for the fireworks.
