nathaliaWhat the hell happened to Terence Howard?
I just saw on Newsarama that he will be replaced in the Iron Man sequel and that Don CheDadle will be James "Rhodey" Rhodes instead. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Don Cheadle and he's a fantastic actor but I liked Terence Howard as Rhodey and I want to know why he won't be in the sequel. I had read in an interview earlier this year that he was so excited about putting on the armor himself at some point but that he wanted it to progress naturally and now he's out? What happened?
(I'm going to read the article now).
Financial differences? Please! It would seem to me that Howard would be less expensive than Cheadle. Cheadle is awesome though, I don't want to slight him in any way, I'm just surprised, that's all. His Rhodey will be a lot different for sure. Older, wiser. They'll both have to be very, very patient though, so one thing the guys share. It's hard to picture the change but at least it's someone I like.
I don't want to complain about actor changes, after all Maggie Gyllenhall was perfect in The Dark Knight and sooo much better than Katie Holmes but they looked similar. Cheadle and Howard ... not so much. I want to see what they do and how they plan to do it.
In other movie news. Have they finally confirmed who Dwayne Johnson will be playing in the Shazam! movie should that ever be greenlit? I'd love to see him as Black Adam. He's just the perfect choice and I'm not even a fan of The Rock. he just looks like Black Adam. And is the Superman franchise dead?
