Robert Downey Jr. says he didn’t want to be the first one down on Avengers: Doomsday
Interviewer: Doctor Doom himself.
Robert Downey Jr.: He’s coming.
lGoing from project to project, one was a marathon, and this last Marvel film was very much like a series of sprints. It was really taxing physically because of the heavy costumes.
I remember back in the past, we’d all be assembled in Atlanta. It’d be like 94 degrees and 88% humidity, and you’d think, “People are going to start passing out.”
Interviewer: Yeah.
Robert Downey Jr.: And this is a real fit bunch of folks. I didn’t want to be the first man down on Doomsday.
I wanted to make sure I could withstand high pressure and exhausting action or dramatic scenarios, then quickly be able to cool down. The way we changed the program was really helpful.
Marcus Pettersson played under #NYR head coach Mike Sullivan in Pittsburgh for parts of seven seasons. On reuniting with his former coach:
"First off, as a person, I feel like me and Sully had a great relationship. He's a straightforward kind of guy. You're never really wondering what you should do or where you're at or stuff like that. Very straightforward, clear communication. I love that about him. System-wise, I feel like it tends to play into my playing style. I want to play a fast-paced style like he wants to play, and pressure on puck. I feel like his system is so good where you don't have to overthink things out there."

Matt Damon says Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey was so demanding that only one person visited the set in six months.
Ben Affleck.
"You were the only guest in six months of shooting."
Damon says the reason was simple.
"The workload was incredible."
"It was such an ambitious project that there was no time for anything else."
He called it the most demanding movie he's ever made.
"I've never worked on a film that required every single person to give maximum effort."
Then he put it into perspective.
"Every location on that movie would've been the hardest location on any other movie I'd ever done."
"And every day of work was harder than any day on any other movie I'd ever worked on."
Even Ben Affleck joked that it reminded him of when they were kids, calling each other to ask:
"So... what's it like shooting your movie?"
