Robert Downey Jr. is one of the most celebrated Hollywood stars working today, though the actor’s first Oscar win didn’t come until 2024 for his role in “Oppenheimer.” Though he’s always proven himself as a versatile thespian who can take on a diverse array of parts, he’s mostly beloved for his stint as Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Today, Downey Jr. has legions of fans and a healthy bank balance thanks to the MCU, but at one point, the actor was pretty much uncastable, largely due to his various and complex legal issues. In order to help explain the Oscar winner’s various brushes with the law, Looper spoke with Camron Dowlatshahi, an entertainment attorney and partner at the Los Angeles-based law firm Mills Sadat Dowlat LLP.
