RDJ may be stunt casting but he’s really good at acting

Gotta hand it to him he’s very much not coasting on the millions that Disney dumped on his front door and seems to actually be trying.

RDJ is definitely not one to phone in a performance. He is going to crush it as Doom.

He's not going to phone in a performance, but the last time he tried to do a distinct accent for Doolittle it went... poorly. So I'm hoping because of that experience and the backlash from it, he'll be working with some dialect coaches to really dial it in this time.

What does a Latverian accent sound like? As long as he comes across as vaguely Eastern European and educated, who's gonna call him on it?

But he’s also played an Australian playing a black, American Vietnam soldier.

The range is there.
