How to get the return type of a method call in IntelliJ?

Normally you would expect just hovering over a method it would show a popup of the return type.

How do you get this information in intellij ultimate?

Ctrl+Shift+P works great with extra bonus by highlighting relevant return expression (IntelliJ 2020.2.3 CE)

Hit Ctrl + Q (or ⌃J on Mac) when cursor is on a method declaration or call. It will show you the pop-up you want. As a bonus: Ctrl + Shift + I will display method body as well in a pop-up.
