He switched to a vegan diet in 2020 in a bid to lower his carbon footprint.

And Robert Downey Jr displayed the results of his plant based lifestyle as he strolled around the set of The Sympathizer shirtless on Sunday.

The 57-year-old actor plays multiple roles in the new HBO series and was seen made up as three different characters during the busy day of filming.

Robert donned a curly brown wig for one look and highlighted his ripped abs as he went shirtless in a pair of navy jogging bottoms. 

The Avengers actor has been looking noticeably slimmer after swearing off meat and dairy products. 

He revealed he'd switched to a plant based diet while discussing his wife Susan, saying: 'She is the greatest creative producer in the history of cinema and I make faces for cash and chicken. Even though no, I'm off chicken now.'

Susan said: 'Not chicken anymore,' as Robert quipped: 'I'm going plant-based! For cash and legumes.'

Robert has invested in a number of plant based cheeses and meats and has also launched The Footprint Coalition, an organisation designed to help clean up the planet through the use of advanced technologies.

The actor was also seen dressed as another character in The Sympathizer, sporting a red wig with a receding hairline.
