Even Iron Man wants to live in red-hot Malibu.

An entity linked to actor Robert Downey Jr. scooped up a mid-century modern pad in the increasingly popular city for $3.8 million.

The 3,384-square-foot home was built in 1972 and has three bedrooms and three bathrooms, the Los Angeles Times reported.

It listed in March for $3.95 million.
