Terrence Howard is still upset at ‘Iron Man’ movie executives, about the choices they have made producing the film’s sequel.
The actor, 40, is particularly displeased that he was replaced in ‘Iron Man 2′ because of a reported salary dispute.
“Marvel made a choice, and it was a very, very bad choice,” the actor — whose role was given to Don Cheadle — tells Parade.com. “They didn’t keep their word. They didn’t honor my contract.”
“They did it with everyone but Robert Downey [Jr],” fumes Howard. “One of the things that actors need to do is always stick together: one for all, and all for one.”
“I’ve seen the script, I know what’s going to happen — but I’m not revealing anything. I believe in karma,” he says. “When someone does something wrong, you don’t have to get them back. Everything right will return the favor for you.”

I’ve heard that Terrence is a midget in real life. He obviously suffers from a Napoleon complex.
Noooooooo! You just crushed my dreams. He is too zexy to be a dwarf.
Sorry folks! But this ain’t Universal Pictures anymore, it’s Marvel Entertainment! And around here, only the Super Heroes get first billing. Everybody else, is everybody else.

Hey there, Amy! An “Iron Man No.15″ was actually the first comic book i ever collected. Iron Man’s very first appearance, and his Origin, was in a comic book called “Tales of Suspense No.39″. (I got that one too.)
The movie i thought, was Great! Far exceeding my expectations. In deed I was Shocked (almost terrified) as the Iron Man, marched out of that cave like an “invincible” tank, but with legs. You see, I couldn’t believe they had actually built it! (the suit that is. Which caught fire during the making of the movie. And yeah, with stunt double Richard Cetrone inside.). For me, at least, the Iron Man in the movie, was just like I remembered him from the comic book, but Alive! Well, on the Silver Screen anyway. But nonetheless it was like a childhood fantasy that had become Real.
Originally it all took place in Viet-Nam. But with everything in the world as it is today, I think Afghanistan was an appropriate adaptation. And you tell me, at the beginning of the movie, when the bag was removed from Tony Stark’s head to reveal that he was a prisoner of terrorist, did you say what I think you said? “Oh, Sh–!”
well, i can’t say i’m not disapointed he’s not coming back. i axtually would prefer him to cheadle, plus he looks more like the guy in the comic that Cheadle, but he needs to get over it. if he was gonna bitch and moan, he should have done it when he first found out he wasn’t gonna eb in iron man 2, not now that he’s out pimping his new movie.
His biatch-ass-ness over this has put me off him for this specific role too!
for the record, i haven’t seen the script and am pretty damn sure i know what happens too.
there’ll be a villian. likely one of the current iron man baddies whose origin will be rewritten enough that his backstory can be told in 5 minutes. they’ll build new iron man armor. they’lll build the war machine armor. don cheadle will get it. iron man will be incapacitated in some way (probably introducing stark’s 1 fatal flaw…being an alcoholic). war machine almost saves the day only for stark to realise he ruined things, get in the iron man suit and really save the day.
there’ll also be a cameo or two in the hopes of setting up the avengers movie.
i guess karma is gonna kick my ass now, eh terrence?
idiot.
Hey baby
I need of caffeine today, dear? *… hands Chris a coffee* here you go!
