Robert Downey Jr has admitted that he regularly had sex with co-stars on the set of his movies.

The 43-year-old said actors frequently hook up during filming and he was no exception as a single man.

He told the Daily Record: "I remember certain colleagues having a lot of fun with me on set in the past. Every second star goes to bed with his co-star because they spend so much time together. But I'm not going to start reeling off the names."

Downey Jr also revealed that his marriage to film producer Susan Levin had given him the stability to overcome his long-running addiction to drugs.

He said: "She is a great cheerleader for me. I got the right girl. Of course, I am afraid of falling back into the clutches of substance abuse - everybody is - but my wife is there for me."
