Marvel Studios has hired Don Cheadle to replace Terrence Howard in the upcoming Iron Man sequel. Cheadle will play Jim Rhodes, Tony Stark’s best friend and future War Machine. Director Jon Favreau has made numerous hints that War Machine may play a part in the second film. The Hollywood Reporter’s sources claim it was a conflict due to financial differences. Earlier this year, it was widely speculated that Marvel was trying to low ball Favreau with an offer not much higher than his initial payday for the first film. It is not unusual for salaries to double for a sequel, especially when the first film outperformed to the level that Iron Man had. But from what I’ve heard, Marvel believes the superhero characters themselves are the real stars, and some have said that the company is being thrifty in their negotiations for their future projects.

    • I don't care who plays Rhodes as long as the movie is bad ass...

      I sure do miss reading comic books and hate myself for selling most of my collection...

    • I don't know how I feel about this.........I love Don Cheadle but Terrance Howard was awesome in Iron Man. Plus, Terrance plays the military persona real well..........it's hard for me to see Don play a member of the airforce.
