The 46-year-old's stylist has allegedly requested shoes with three-inch built-in lifts for the actor to wear while filming the third instalment in the superhero franchise, according to Us Weekly.
"They're working on a special pair just for him," a source told the magazine. "The lift insole needs to be concealed in a high-top shoe or boot. The highest that's offered the general public is two inches."
The actor recently told Men's Fitness that he was surprised to be cast in the role of a superhero.
"I guess I had some notion about it," he said. "I've always really enjoyed that genre, but I mean, it's pretty outlandish. I'm not particularly tall or strong or fast or aggressive. Yet, I'm not faking it. To me, it's a cosmic chuckle."
In the same interview, Downey Jr joked that he would kill to protect his two kittens.
The actor is currently expecting a baby boy with wife Susan Downey.
