00:00 Robert Downey Jr. just summed up his entire career in 30 seconds while accepting his BAFTA.
00:06 Last night, Robert Downey Jr. was recognized for his work in Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer
00:10 by winning the BAFTA for Best Supporting Actor.
00:13 During his acceptance speech, the Marvel alum didn't hesitate to poke fun at himself during
00:18 a quick summary of his career in Hollywood.
00:21 "When I was 15, I wanted to be Peter O'Toole.
00:24 When I was 25, I worked for Richard Attenborough with Anthony Hopkins.
00:28 When I was 35, I finally understood why Dickie thought Tony would be a better role model
00:33 for me than Peter.
00:36 When I was 42, I did two films for Guy Ritchie and learned how to make big Hollywood movies
00:41 with a civil British fare.
00:46 I then played a guy named Tony in the MCU for about 12 years.
00:50 And then recently, that dude, Chris Nolan, suggested I attempt an understated approach
00:59 as a last-ditch effort to perhaps resurrect my dwindling credibility."
