Los Angeles, September 16
The 2024 Primetime Emmy Awards, held on Sunday, September 15 (early Monday morning in India), at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, saw a delightful and playful appearance by Robert Downey Jr. and his wife, Susan Downey.
The couple made a memorable entrance on the red carpet, with Robert not only showcasing his signature charisma but also adding a touch of humour to the evening.
Robert Downey Jr., nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for his role in HBO's 'The Sympathizer', was in high spirits as he posed for photographers.
Clad in a sophisticated dark blue suit paired with a silk shirt and tie, he was quick to engage in light-hearted banter.
"I don't see you smiling!" he joked with the photographers, adding, "Let me see your--there we go, buddy. If we do it together, the world's a better place," reported People magazine.
His playful comments had everyone in high spirits and set a fun tone for the evening.
Meanwhile, radiating elegance, Susan Downey complemented the 'Iron Man' star in a strapless gown adorned with shimmery red sequins.
The couple, who have been married since 2005, have been a dynamic duo on the red carpet for years, and their appearance this year was no exception.
