The wrestler-turned-actor who breathed life into Drax the Destroy for Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy has begun filming his scenes for Avengers: Infinity War as production kicks off.

But which actor would Dave Bautista most like to share the screen with?

Speaking with Collider, Bautista revealed the one character he most wants to team up with on screen and it's not a surprise.

"I've said all along, I want to work with RDJ, man," Bautista said. "I want to work with Robert Downey Jr. He's Iron Man. He's Tony Stark, man. He's the guy!"

He elaborated that the actor is the reason why he became such a huge fan of the character.

"If I had to narrow down my favorite Marvel film: Iron Man. My favorite, I love it," Bautista said. "That movie made me a fan of Iron Man, because up until then I really wasn't."

But he said his favorite characters as a kid were from DC.

"Batman and Aquaman were my guys growing up, oddly enough," Bautista added. "It just made me a fan and I started watching from then on and all the Marvel movies, it's just got the golden touch. They've really got their finger on the pulse."

Avengers: Infinity War began filming today. The latest crossover in the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be released May 4th, 2018.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is in theaters May 5th.
