Downey Vs. Galifianakis

As noted earlier, Robert Downey Jr. will be starring opposite Zach Galifianakis in Todd Phillips's Due Date, and I had the chance to ask Downey Jr about it briefly at Comic-Con. "Yep, I'm doing it," he confirmed, though when I brought up reports that he'd essentially be playing straight man to Galifianakis, he recoiled in mock-horror. "What? Why would I want to do that?" he said. "I think Zach and I will have a nice time seeing who's the straight man to who."
