SUSAN Downey is a film producer who is married to Robert Downey Jr.
The couple have been married since 2005 and live together in Malibu, California.
Susan Downey was born on November 6, 1973, as Susan Nicole Levin.
Robert and Susan Downey launched their production company, Team Downey, in 2010.
She has worked on such films as RocknRolla (2008), Sherlock Holmes (2009), and The Book of Eli (2010).
Susan has teamed with her husband on Dolittle and The Judge, among others.
The husband and wife worked together on Sr., a Netflix documentary about Robert’s father, Robert Downey Sr., who died in July 2021.
Susan and the Marvel Universe star share two children, Avri and Exton.
Susan and Robert met on the set of the 2003 film Gothika. They would soon get married and start working together.
Susan said Team Downey leans toward being a “mom-and-pop” organization in a 2020 interview with Inc.com.
“That doesn’t mean that the scope of what we do is small,” she told the outlet.
“It just means the way in which we do it is very hands-on.”
She added, “You ultimately realize if you’re going to take the time to do something, you have to love it.
“You have to be willing to know where those hours are going to go, because they’re not going to go to something else.”
Robert and Susan had decided to work together because they were spending too much time apart.
The weeks away from each other was a “recipe for not just disaster, but heartbreak,” Susan told Fast Company.
“The main motivation was to find things that we loved and to be able to be in a creative process together.”
Robert told Inc.com that the company allows employees to use Team Downey as a springboard for other jobs in their careers.
Others, though, decide to stay long-term.
“Some take the experience and go out … and now we’re seeing the movie they are writing,” he told Inc.com.
“We go, ‘great!’ It really is a bit of an incubation thing.”
Before marrying Susan Downey, Robert Downey Jr. was married to Deborah Falconer.
Falconer is an actress and singer who has released three studio albums.
The Oppenheimer actor married Falconer after dating for just 42 days in 1992.
Their marriage produced a son, Indio, but ended in divorce in 2004.
Shortly after their divorce was finalized, Robert wed again, this time to Susan, in 2005.
