Robert Downey, Jr. is being tapped to play Hugh Hefner in a new biopic about his life. Apparently, Robert impressed Hef with his lead role in Iron Man.
Hef was so pleased with Downey’s portrayal of the wealthy playboy Tony Stark in Iron Man that he really wants Downey to play him.
The movie is tentatively titled, Playboy and is planned to start shooting next summer. Robert Downey, Jr. says that he’ll do the part as long as the script is right.
