Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the MCU as Doctor Doom, and he has revealed one acting method he used to help develop his character of the Marvel Phase 6 villain in Avengers: Doomsday.

"Going back into doing this next Avengers: Doomsday film, where I'll be playing Victor von Doom – now a brand new take on my involvement having been the first lead in a reiteration of Marvel, creating the MCU – and my co-star Vanessa Kirby was like, 'Hey, would you want to do some dream work?'" Downey Jr. shared on Bran Ferren's Conversations for Our Daughters series. "And I was like, 'You know what? It's been a while.' And I did that one-on-one, this would be more of a group thing. I go, 'Yeah, I want that community.'"
