Iron Man 2: Cheadle In, Howard OUT

Filed under: Film Flickers > Gwyneth Paltrow > Terrence Howard

donter1.jpg

The character of Jim Rhodes will not be reprised by Terrence Howard in Iron Man 2.

Terrence has been bumped for Don Cheadle because T and the Iron Man suits supposedly fell out over 'financial differences'.

Were you being too greedy, Terrence?

You're not a superstar, sweetie. You're no Will Smith!

Unfortunately, Gwyneth Paltrow will be back as Pepper Potts.

Wonder what her schtick will be during the Iron Man 2 promo tour.

She can't do the super short skirts + mega high heels thing again, right?

    that sucks!! i hate it when they do cast changes for whatever reason! and p, i actually liked paltrow in that movie. she was likeable in that flick in my opinion so stop hating.



  10. 10

    TH got PWN3D, son!!

    Iron Man was successful - but it wasn't because of you, Terrence. Don Cheadle is a better actor anyway!



  11. 11

    Terrence Howard is a douche..I'm glad he won't be in the second movie..

    FUNNY GAMES SUCKED TOO, I WATCH IT THIS WEEKEND!



  17. 17

    If he were white they would give him more money! RDJ is probably getting PA PAID! And all that money they made off the movie and they can't give him more? I'm sure Gwyneth Paltrow got more money!



  18. 18

    Re: wanna milk me?? – R u still looking for harry?



  19. 19

    THE HAPPENING, NOW THAT'S A GOOD MOVIE!



  20. 20

    Well, if Rhodes was going to become War Machine in the 2nd one then I could see why he would ask for more money. Obviously, if he is playing a bigger role then more money makes sense. It all depends on how much more money he was asking for. If it was way more then I say he is dumb for jeopardizing his role in a comic book franchise!!



  21. 21

    Good. He got EXACTLY what his ass deserved. Terrence thought he was the leading man, evidently. Well, so much for his "diva" act - bet he'll think twice before he tries to pull that stunt again.

    Hey letty, some pink bitch has been picking on me on the betty white page, do you believe she has the balls to mess with me?



  23. 23

    No, no, no I loved Terrence Howard in that role. :(



  24. 24

    FRESH!



  25. 25

    Re: SheriMoonZombie – LET ME CHECK THAT OUT!



  26. 26

    "Terrence this is stupid stuff." Who does Terrence thinks he is? You don't turn down a hit. Don is better actor anyway. Stronger , more debt, and very versitile (sp?). I don't even see Terrence as any type of strong leading man. Terrence, come on out and get it over with.



  27. 27

    Re: smh@ppl – It had to be about more than money. I'm thinking Don is worth more than Terrence.



  28. 28

    Oh, sweet! Not that I dislike Terrance or anything, but I love Don Cheadle! :-) He will be an awesome addition to the second chapter!



  29. 29

    Re: LettyB – And what planet are you from?!



  30. 30

    T. Howard was always rumoured to be the biggest ass in Hollywood - apparently we can change that from rumour to reality.



  31. 31

    booo fuck that terrence is the shit…. correction the Oscar nominated shit



  32. 32

    Oh I know Terence Howard is a spoiled brat but he sure is fine to look at…oh well….



  33. 33

    Re: *MissLeia* – IF I TOLD YOU I WOULD HAVE TO KILL YOU!!!



  34. 34

    Greedy Oscar winner vs. humble oscar winner.



  35. 35

    let me get this straight,,,cheadle costs LESS to hire than howard? i cant believe that…i dont think cheadle is right for this role either - howard was better but not a good fit still…rhodes is starkes bodyguard/right hand…the character is alot tougher than i think cheadle can portray…
    paltrow was good as pepper, though rez - i think your just mand cause they didnt cast you to be the iron man lol



  36. 36

    these are two exceptional actors, some of the best in hollyweird, BUT they're black– that's why Fat Perez says Terrence isn't a superstar. The man has oscar nods and stars w/the best in the industry.

    In reality the studio probably offered them n*gger wages, compared to the anglos, and Terrence said Fuck That.



  37. 37

    i can't STAND terrance howard!
    he acts and behaves like a cocky bastard.
    i'm sure he thinks he deserved more $$$!
    prick!
    m.



  38. 38

    why the fuck do you hate gwyneth



  39. 39

    don is a great actor.



  40. 40

    They shouldnt have gotten rid of terrance, he was a good character



  41. 41

    What a dummy! I hate when they get new people, that might have worked for The Dark Knight but cmon!



  42. 42

    I saw a shower scene clip from a film with Terrance Howard. He certainly breaks the myth about black men being well endowed. His peen looks like a bottle cap!



  43. 43

    god that howard is a nightmare to work with
    diva if ever we saw one



  44. 44

    terrence howard was arrested recently ( and a few times more) for drunk driving… this may be why???? he lives in the subs of philly.



  45. 45

    Too bad, Terrence is hot and Don is NOT!
