Robert Downey Jr has been nominated for his role as Lewis Strauss at the 96th Academy Awards. This is the third time the actor has been nominated for the Oscars. In a recent interview, the actor revealed that he was pleased with not winning the prestigious award when he was nominated for the first time.

Back in 1993, the actor was nominated in the Best Actor category for his role in 바카라˜Chaplin.바카라™ However, the award was swooped up by Al Pacino for 바카라˜Scent of a Woman.바카라™ In an interview with the co-hosts of 바카라˜The View바카라™, Robert Downey Jr recalled his first Oscar nomination. He said, 바카라œI was young and crazy.바카라 He added that if he had won the award, it 바카라œwould have put me under the impression that I was on the right track.바카라 He was 28 back then.

In an earlier interview with British GQ, the actor predicted that he would win the Oscar one day. He said, 바카라œAs long as I stick around, I바카라™m going to end up with a bunch of them anyway as they바카라™re going to run out of people to give them to. And I바카라™m probably going to win it one year when someone else deserves to win it. Why? Because it바카라™s my time. And that바카라™s the way shit works around here. I바카라™m just an uptight mutt at the top of his game.바카라

After 바카라˜Chaplin바카라™, the actor was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in 2009 for his role in 바카라˜Tropic Thunder바카라™. He did not win the award.

Reacting to the nominations that 바카라˜Oppenheimer바카라™ has received, the actor expressed his utmost joy. He said, 바카라œI was just so happy for all 13 nominations. I couldn바카라™t believe that it was Emily Blunt바카라™s first Oscar nomination.바카라

Robert Downey Jr plays the role of Lewis Strauss in 바카라˜Oppenheimer바카라™ who was the Chairman of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.
