Christopher Nolan Calls Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man ‘One of the Most Consequential Casting Decisions That’s Ever Been Made’ in Movie History
Christopher Nolan says Robert Downey Jr. as Iron man "is one of the most consequential casting decisions that's ever been made."
Christopher Nolan appeared on “The Late Show” for a lengthy discussion with Stephen Colbert in which the filmmaker heaped praise on his “Oppenheimer” star Robert Downey Jr., who is widely considered the Oscar frontrunner for best supporting actor thanks to his turn as Lewis Strauss. In an interview with The New York Times Magazine last summer, he admitted he was concerned his acting chops might be at risk while playing Iron Man for 11 years in the MCU.
