““Robert Downey Jr is hardly the obvious choice to play an iconic crime fighter,” sniffed USA Today in April 2007, when the then-washed up and scandal-ridden 42-year-old actor was announced as the improbable star of a forthcoming comic book film – you know, for kids.

Today, that sentiment reads like Albert Einstein’s famous 1895 school report, in which a Munich schoolmaster wrote that the 16-year-old future genius physicist and conceiver of the theory of relativity “will never amount to anything”.

An actor no-one wanted to work with was playing a superhero with no special powers in a film no-one had asked for. Then he became the centre of the cinematic universe.”
