Seems like an excellent choice to me. Replace Howard with a much better actor, Don Cheadle.

Of course I do wonder what bad karma will be wrought upon Iron Man 2 as Howard says.

What did they do to poor Gwynny? Did they replace her with Betty White?

Cheadle blows Howard out of the water. Good choice by Marvel.

Wow, Colin, harsh dig at Howard there. Don't get me wrong, Don Cheadle is awesome, but Howard is not exactly chopped liver. Check out "Hustle & Flow" and watch how his character changes over the course of that flick (especially note the hard look in his eyes disappear gradually)....Terrence Howard is the fucking man, and there's no way they should have dicked him out of Iron Man 2. I mean, having choice actors in the supporting roles is an established way to add color/flavor to a super-hero / action flick....would you have bumpted Gary Oldman out of TDK and hired someone else to play Gordon? Of course not.

For the sake of consistency, I would have preferred that they kept Howard on Iron Man 2, but I was not displeased by their choice to replace him with Cheadle.

But there is something missing in Howard's story. It's very possible that Marvel dicked everyone around on salary, but why was he shown the exit when no one else was? Maybe he thought he couldn't be fired if Marvel ever decided to produce a War Machine spin-off.

If nothing else, I would think a Cheadle as a replacement would have cost MORE than to keep Howard on board. Isn't he the more highly esteemed actor?

LATN says ...

there was an article in entertainment weekly a few months back talking about how terrence howard was the highest paid actor on iron man (even more than RDJ) and they wanted to renegotiate his salary for IM2 (to get it more in line with what the other supporting actors were making) Plus he was a douchebag on the set.

I don't get why this post is called "Not Shown The Money." Oh, wait, yest I do! It's because Terrence Howard was in "Jerry Maguire," and he had that famous line... oh, no, it wasn't Terrence Howard it was another actor... who? Ah, Cuba Gooding Jr.! That's right. So wait, then why was this titled "Not Shown The Money?" Is there a connection between the two actors that I'm missing?

This quote is from Parade magazine? You make fun of my weight, but you read Parade magazine?

Howard is normally a decent actor, but he's actually kind of terrible in Iron Man. He looks bored, or stoned (sometimes there is no difference) and he had absolutely no presence whatsoever.

D.J.Z. says ...

I guess this is the return of my pro-Howard rant. At least Dreamer's on my side this time.

Colin: "Seems like an excellent choice to me. Replace Howard with a much better actor, Don Cheadle."

But does he have the same chemistry as Howard?

"Howard was background scenery for Downey to chew on, he never really made an impression. "

He was supposed to shine in the sequel.

LATN: I'm guessing RDJ was paid less than Howard, because of RDJ's reputation for ditching work to do drugs, which is also why they almost didn't hire him. And Paltrow isn't exactly a box office draw. So I'm guessing Howard got paid more, because he at least had more high-profile projects to his name, if nothing else.

Jeff, what's your take on Howard? Have you ever interviewed him or gotten an impression if he's problematic on set? Or is this simply an overzealous agent holding out for bucks and Marvel playing hardball?

Either way, the reality is that Downey ever bows out of the series, Cheadle has enough marquee recognition to carry it on; Howard is a good actor, but the money guys financing comic book flicks want a "name" with a higher Q-rating, methinks. Tom Brazelton is right; Cheadle may cost more if they go the WarMachine direction, but it's an easier sell.

comment #19

Jonah says ...

Downey and Howard didn't have great chemistry. The movie was great, but not because of Howard. Cheadle is a better actor, and he'll make the sequel better.

Downey may have been a pain in the ass at one time, but he's not anymore or he wouldn't have been hired for the part.

Howard is a pain in the ass right now. A lot of people don't like him, and his name doesn't sell tickets.

I remember a while back he was on a talk show, think it was Jimmy Kimmel. His segment was over and he moved on down the couch for the creators of Lost.

The Lost creators were visibly annoyed that throughout their interview, Howard kept interjecting his own comments, jokes, stories, etc...

He's an arrogant douche that probably won't be around in five years.

mtgilchrist says ...

I'm entirely ambivalent about replacing Howard with Cheadle, but if Howard has a "well-earned" reputation for being difficult, Marvel has an equally well-desrved reputation for lowballing their productions, underpaying their stars and just generally treating the creative folks poorly. Ed Norton's version of Hulk was almost entirely jettisoned for the mindless spectacle of the theatrical version, Favreau almost wasn't invited to return for part 2 despite the fact that he's just as responsible for its success as RDJ, and I think what Howard's beef is about is the fact that he was signed to do multiple movies and then when the film was a massive hit, Marvel decided they wouldn't honor the agreement of salary that comes with returning to a franchise. Marvel doesn't care about the creative integrity of their movies and assume that people want to see the successful ones because of the property, not the people making them, so they lowball everybody in the process getting crap.

D.J.Z. says ...

Carl: "Cheadle has enough marquee recognition to carry it on"

I don't know any casual movie fans who know Cheadle.

"the money guys financing comic book flicks want a "name" with a higher Q-rating, methinks."

The money guys think any black guy will do for the role.

Jonah: "Downey and Howard didn't have great chemistry. The movie was great, but not because of Howard."

Howard made Downey's character more down-to-earth, since he's the only "average Joe" who hangs out with him, and every one else is super-rich and/or W.A.S.P.-ey.

"Downey may have been a pain in the ass at one time, but he's not anymore or he wouldn't have been hired for the part."

He probably got hired because he was a pain in the ass, so he'd take a smaller fee, just to get a come-back gig.

"Howard is a pain in the ass right now. A lot of people don't like him, and his name doesn't sell tickets."

I don't remember Cheadle ever selling tickets.

"I remember a while back he was on a talk show, think it was Jimmy Kimmel. His segment was over and he moved on down the couch for the creators of Lost.
The Lost creators were visibly annoyed that throughout their interview, Howard kept interjecting his own comments, jokes, stories, etc..."

It's not like Kimmel doesn't do the same thing.

Ray: I thought Samuel L. Jackson nearly killed Iron Man with his Nick Fury cameo. Should've gone for Bruce Campbell on that one.

Anyway, I like how Downey's drug addiction forced a number of productions to be shut down and/or re-written, but Howard's considered the "trouble-maker".

Kane: Alright. The suits dicked Howard over for the same reason they used to short-change Jamie Foxx. They didn't think either actor would amount to anything other than comic relief. But Howard has a presence which Cheadle lacks. And so the suits also didn't want him upstaging Downey in the new movie with the War Machine arc. That's why they cast a guy who will come off more hammy trying to pull off the character, since Cheadle's more used to dramatic roles. Still not sure why they added Gary Shandling, though, other than a prior movie deal he might have had with Paramount.

D.Z., or D.J.Z., 90% of the time I enjoy your comments. (Fuck the haters.) But the Samuel L. Jackson cameo was a fan favorite because of the hugely successful The Ultimates which is essentially a reboot of The Avengers. Mark Millar modeled Nick Fury after SLJ just like he did with Eminem for the Wanted graphic novel.

Also, Terrence Howard was the worst part of Iron Man. Besides the boilerplate origin story. RDJ is the only element that elevated that entire movie.

comment #30

MilkMan says ...

Terrence Howard uses silk handkerchiefs for toilet paper. He sprays cologne between his toes. When he makes love to a woman he asks her to wear a mask bearing his likeness, and if she refuses he presses a button letting Smedley, his valet, know that it's time to come in the bedroom and smack the ho across her tuchas with a pair of pristine white gloves. It wasn't until the premiere of Iron Man that Howard figured out that the movie wasn't about his character. Terrence Howard will soon be doing Dos Equis commericials if he doesn't watch himself.

comment #31

CitizenKanedforChewingGum says ...

Daniel --

Thanks for your paragraph and legitimate attempt at a civilized conversation. Sincerely.

Unfortunately, it doesn't make some of your points any less ludicrous. Your comparison of Foxx and Howard is specious to say the least.

Exactly when in his career was TH considered primarily comic relief? And please God, don't bring up something like Big Momma's House, he was billed just above Anthony Anderson, for cryin' out loud. Nobody in their right mind knew who Howard was then, whereas from the start Foxx had his stand-up, In Living Color, Booty Call , etc.

As for your take on Don Cheadle, I'm going to have to agree with Burma's comment. You do not go from supporting character actor to sometimes leading man without some serious fuckin' screen presence. It simply does not happen in Hollywood.

The guy has serious chops, no matter if he's the lead (Hotel Rwanda, Talk to Me), part of an ensemble (Traffic, Boogie Nights), or just off on his own creating his own indelible character (Devil in a Blue Dress).

He is also more than capable of delivering a humorous performance (what this has to do with his role in IM2, I have no idea), as his roles in Out of Sight and the Ocean's films have shown. What on earth would lead you to believe his portrayal of Rhodes will be "hammy?"

Don Cheadle is the man, period. I've loved him in everything I've seen him in (and that's a lot). Nice to see him getting a big tent poler to himself (if the Warmachine spin-off pans out). He definitely deserves it.

"Well, the man don't just have to die, Foley. I mean, he could accidentally hurt himself falling down on something real hard, you know? Like a shiv, or my dick?"

Few people could deliver this line with the right amount of menace and intelligence and humor. But Cheadle killed it...man, I love that movie.

Gordon27 says ...

"I don't know any casual movie fans who know Cheadle. "

This might make sense as an argument. Wow. DZ makes a coherent statement...

Except that that sentence is meant to be support of Terence Howard in the role. And nobody in the world could possibly argue that Terence Howard has a higher profile than Cheadle. (Except DZ, of course, but the fact that DZ is apparently arguing that Howard was not only great in 'Iron Man' but, seemingly, the best part of the movie [maybe I'm misreading his comparing him to Downey] makes me more secure in how little I think of his portrayal of Rhodes, or anything else I've seen him do besides 'Hustle and Flow'.)

comment #36

Gordon27 says ...

I just want to point out that so few people care about Terrence Howard that his name doesn't even come up on Box Office Mojo. You can't even search by him to see what the movies he's been in have grossed. That's crazy. I didn't even know that could happen.

comment #37

D.J.Z. says ...

Gordon: If you think Howard isn't more recognizable than Cheadle, then you'll notice the difference when people at your theater fidget when they see RDJ and Cheadle together in the sequel. And I didn't say he was the best part of the movie, just the most relatable out of all the characters.

comment #38

Dignan says ...

The story I heard a ways back, in addition to rumors of him being a pain to deal with on set and the disproportionate salary issue, was that Favreau had to create Howard's Iron Man performance in the editing room and wasn't thrilled with the idea of handing large chunks of the IM2 plot to the actor so he was developing the script in a different direction. When Marvel got to the bottom of this they stepped in and replaced Howard with Cheadle. It makes for an interesting story although I doubt anyone would admit to it.

comment #39

Gordon27 says ...

"If you think Howard isn't more recognizable than Cheadle, then you'll notice the difference when people at your theater fidget when they see RDJ and Cheadle together in the sequel."

Could you at least pretend to try to make sense? That sentence is farcically nonsensical. I'm not talking about your opinion that Howard is more recognizable than Cheadle, which is merely nonsensical. I'm saying that to prove that Howard is more recognizable than Cheadle by saying that people will notice the replacement -- even if I were to stipulate the ridiculous prediction that anybody will care [in and of itself, arguing your prediction as a fact is absurd... then, you can factor in the fact that you have always been completely wrong about everything you've predicted, yet you continue to cite your own predictions as facts that can not be argued against], the fact that people will notice the difference STILL wouldn't prove that Howard is more recognizable than Howard.

"And I didn't say he was the best part of the movie, just the most relatable out of all the characters."

If you liked him more than Downey (which you already said), and he's not the best part of the movie, then for god's sake, who is?

Let's take bets on how much wronger DZ's opinion can be. I'm going with "Shia LaBeouf" as his answer.

I'm not normally one to pile on, but seriously...what? How was Howard's character the most relatable in Iron Man? I mean, presumably, none of us are genius billionaire weapon's manufacturers OR Army Generals and Howard was barely in the movie, so...I don't get where that would come from. I mean, if you're saying you related to him most, ok, but do you honestly think that the majority of film goers felt that way? If so, why?

Also, can you cite one example of Cheadle being "hammy" in anything?

comment #41

nola says ...

re: IM2. Again why is he speaking to the press about this? Let it go.

He was the only major actor replaced. He never works with the same director twice. His rep in Hollywood is awful.

TH has always been nice to me. But if he doesn't get his shit together soon his career is over. Life is too short to deal with pain in the ass talent when they are not A-list stars.

Gordon: "the fact that people will notice the difference STILL wouldn't prove that Howard is more recognizable than Howard."

Freudian slip?

"If you liked him more than Downey (which you already said), and he's not the best part of the movie, then for god's sake, who is?"

I didn't say I liked him more than Downey, just that I could "get" his character more than the one played by Downey. I personally thought the mix of personalities was decent overall, and have no favorites.

"I mean, if you're saying you related to him most, ok, but do you honestly think that the majority of film goers felt that way? If so, why?"

I'm guessing because most moviegoers don't have a personal fortune from weapons manufacturing. Nor are they influential housekeepers -turned-socialites like Paltrow's character. Howard's character, on the other hand, is a guy who actually has to earn a living in that world. So the fact that he's considered a friend to a potentially shallow and ego-centric guy like Stark means something in the same way that those love interests in Batman help to make Wayne more three-dimensional.

"Also, can you cite one example of Cheadle being "hammy" in anything?"

He wasn't hammy, but he didn't exactly come off charismatic in Rush Hour 2.

DZ is an idiot. Nothing he says is based in any reality I've ever been a part of. Maybe Don Murphy can back him up again. Two idiots do not equal an intelligent person.

Also, this comment by Howard made me laugh. Shows his arrogance.

"One of the things that actors need to learn to do is always stick together, one for all and all for one.""

Downey is the main reason the film made as much money as it did. He was singled out in nearly every review I read. Every single family member or friend of mine mentioned Downey as their favorite thing in the movie. He is not replaceable.

Nobody I know went out of their way to mention Howards performance.

So tell me why Downey shouldn't make serious bank off of this. He'd be an idiot to lose money over loyalty to an actor that was seemingly disliked on the set.

Ok, so Cheadle "wasn't charismatic" in Rush Hour 2, and was hammy in Meteor Man and Colors. Didn't see Rush Hour 2 or Meteor Man (although it doesn't surprise me that Robert Townsend might have that effect on anyone) and don't remember Cheadle's role in Colors, so I'll take every one's word on those. Still, I think the main body of the man's work tells me he probably won't be hammy as War Machine.

Chicago48 says ...

From what I've read and I'm not an "insider" Marvel offered Mickey Rourke $250K and Downey pushed for a higher amount. Then I read that Scarlett Jo is getting $250K. Is Gwen back in the sequel? I think not; overall I get the impression Marvel is putting all their money into CGI and to hell with the actors.

As for Terrence, he's the best youngish Black actor out there today, and he's closing in on 40. I just don't see anyone else in the 20-30 yo range who happens to be black who has name reco or marquee. Who knows when he will get another "good" role like H&F. Those type roles only come once in a moon for black actors, unless they can buy their property rights.
And yeh, he has a right to whine. Should he just be quiet about it and go off in a corner? He was done wrong, he learned about it through his agent.

As for his character, the man only had about 10 minutes in the IM1 movie....so I don't know how anyone can judge his acting. He had about 5 lines of dialog. Heck, I could have played that role.

He's a good actor, but he keeps milking his name Jude Law-style right now. And that might not be enough to help Sherlock Holmes. Besides, as someone pointed out, Favreau was almost cut, even though he was the one who got Downey involved in the project in the first place. So I'm guessing Favreau specifically also wanted Terrence Howard for War Machine for a reason.

"He'd be an idiot to lose money over loyalty to an actor that was seemingly disliked on the set. "

Again, his appeal is based on the strength of his interactions with the supporting cast. You shuffle them with other actors, and it might not work as well as the studio had hoped.

Ghost: "Still, I think the main body of the man's work tells me he probably won't be hammy as War Machine. "

So the CHARACTER of Rhodes is important as a down-to-earth foil for Stark -- the character that Cheadle will be playing -- in all likelihood, much better than Howard did.

At least you're actually trying to make a coherent point here, but you're doing it in your usual sideways-logic fashion. Howard's perf in IM was the very definition of "phoning it in". He looked bored, and he bored me.

Downey almost always has great chemistry, no matter who he's acting against (please don't post one example of a time where the chemistry didn't work, I said almost always). Downey will be great with Cheadle. He was great opposite all the actors. In fact I always thought Howard was the one weak link in the cast.

"Hey, at least Law didn't star in an indie remake of Three's Company. "

I'm going to ask that you defend that comment because of the sheer stupidity.

Three's Company was about a guy that lived with two women in an apartment, if memory serves, to save on rent. He didn't sleep with either of them, and he pretended to be gay to keep the landlord happy.

Two Girls and a Guy was about a womanizer that lived on his own, and his two girlfriends confronted him.

Well, financial issues always bring a lot of concerns and questions. People have to deal with money every day as it is an inseparable part of our life. We live in the world that is closely dependent on finances whether we like it or not. Sometimes we lack money, sometimes we have enough to make a large purchase. The thing is we depend on the current economic situation and on people surrounding us, thus, we often need a kind of financial assistance in a form of personal loans for people with bad credit, for instance. It is not rare that people experience financial problems regardless of their abilities and income.
