Robert Downey Jr. Reflects On His Journey from Chaotic Upbringing to Iron Man

The spotlight has certainly taken its toll on Robert Downey Jr. over the years. But much like his beloved MCU character Tony Stark, there's an undeniably powerful force inside Robert that keeps him pushing forward. When we sat down over iced coffees, we found ourselves unpacking the fraught relationship Robert had with his father — the experimental, countercultural filmmaker Robert Downey Sr. — whose unconventional lifestyle created lasting ripples throughout the family. Their shared documentary, “Sr.”, stands as a powerful testament to the healing they found. Plus, we talk about sobriety, the belief it took to become Iron Man, and the full-circle moments spanning the decades since we first crossed paths on the set of Chaplin. 🔗 Listen to more episodes! 🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5P9SJGo... 🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... 🌐 All platforms: https://lemonada.lnk.to/failbetterYT 📺 Subscribe for new videos every Tuesday:    / @failbetterwithdavidduchovny   📬 Join our newsletter for Fail Better news and updates: https://lemonadamedia.com/newsletter/ 📲 Follow Lemonada on social media @lemonadamedia 📲 Follow David on Instagram @davidduchovny For a list of current sponsors and discount codes for this and every other Lemonada show, go to lemonadamedia.com/sponsors. 0:00 - Intro 2:48 - Two neighbors sharing coffee 3:48 - Working together and learning from each other on Chaplin 7:26 - Discussing the documentary “Sr.” about Robert’s father 10:32 - Robert’s sense of play and joy for acting 13:43 - Robert’s upbringing and family's self-destruction 15:23 - David compares his upbringing 16:41 - Seeking what's missing — New York and California 20:21 - The opposing reasons they got into acting 21:23 - Robert’s mother's influence and the big turning point 23:39 - "We're here, we do some stuff, and then we die" 25:39 - Recovery, honesty and community 33:59 - Obsessing over preparing for Iron Man 37:29 - More discussion of “Sr.” 44:01 - What Robert learned from his father’s transformation 47:10 - Reading a passage from Sr.’s film Greaser’s Palace 48:58 - Greaser’s Palace connection to Oppenheimer 50:07 - Will Robert go into the family business of directing? 53:41 - David’s post-interview reflection
