One of the biggest movie stars right now Robert Downey Jr. will star in an untitled feature with "Boyhood" Richard Linklater directing. This new movie will be based on the episode “Man of the People” from Gimlet Media’s Reply All podcast, which aired on January 19, 2017. This podcast episode, which tells the true story of charlatan Dr. John Brinkley who scams his way to fame and fortune using fake medicine, populism, and the newest technology of the time: radio. As Brinkley’s fame grows, he gets the attention of Dr. Morris Fishbein, editor of the AMA who begins a decade-long quest to take him down.
Robert Downey Jr. has been doing side projects like "The Judge" and "Due Date", so this news doesn't surprise, that he is up to a new non-Marvel movie. Some might say that his side projects were disappointing since he joined MCU, except the first Sherlock Holmes, but I think he did great in most of them. He also appeared in Jon Favreau's "Chef" in a smaller role.
The point is, that Robert Downey Jr. despite the quality of the film is always great in his movies no matter what piece of crap they are. And hearing that he is teaming up with such a great director as Richard Linklater is very promising, that this new movie will be at least good.
