“After 9 months of intensive development, Team Downey is pleased to announce our 2014 fall/winter project. Principal photography commenced 11-14 and will continue until she says, ‘Dad! You are embarrassing me…I’m 30, this has gotta stop,'” Downey wrote.

He continued, “Yep…Avri Roel Downey joined the party @ 3:22 a.m. on November 4th…she’s 7lbs even, spans 20 inches, and is accompanied by a variety of Susan’s traits that have seemingly overwritten my ‘junk DNA.’ I’ll post pics here + there when I’m not too busy staring…”

The new daughter joins Downey and his wife’s son Exton, 2, and the actor’s son Indio, 21, from a previous relationship.

The Iron Man star, 49, announced the pregnancy in July on Twitter, writing, “Yo. Susan. Me. Baby. Girl. November. Scorpio?”

He followed that up with a post on Facebook, saying “Um. I don’t know if it’s a “man’s world”, but I’m certain women run it. Susan and I are therefore delighted to announce we are expecting a baby. Girl.”

Downey Jr. and his wife married in August 2005.
