Robert Downey Jr. addresses his rollercaster acting career in Hollywood

Robert Downey Jr. has recently addressed his acting career in Hollywood after Oscar win.

Speaking to PEOPLE, Robert, who earned Oscar award for Best Supporting Actor in Oppenheimer, dished, “I think if you develop a moral psychology, things are a lot easier.”

“And I think it's hard to explain away certain behaviours when there are ways to heal,” continued the 58-year-old.

Robert, who is currently playing four roles in HBO’s drama The Sympathizer, stated, “I both have a lot of empathy for, and I also am a little bit sceptical about anyone who doesn't lean into what they can do to improve the state of their compass. That's all.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Robert opened up about that his home life led him to “focus” on his career.

He told the outlet, “It just gives me, honestly, something to attach my neurosis to that's positive.”

“And I love when I can ask [Susan] if she thinks we should paint the kitchen a different colour or if maybe a new rug in her office, whatever.”

The Iron Man star spilled, “I'm not saying that I'm like a fledgling interior designer. But there's two kinds of people and I'm the kind that cares about the drapes.”

Sharing his thoughts on Al Pacino presenting best picture for Oppenheimer, Robert remarked, “It's crazy that Al Pacino, one of my favourite human beings on earth, presented Best Picture.”

“And it's also crazy that, I think, deservedly he won the first time I was nominated [in 1993 for Chaplin], for Scent of a Woman,” he added.
