I like Don Cheadle (he was outstanding in Hotel Rwanda), but would it have killed them to come to terms with Terrence Howard?

Don Cheadle - More of a comic relief than a Hero!!!

He's a decent dramatic actor. Hotel Rwanda was a drama, and he had a supporting role on ER for a while as a student with Parkinson's. But yeah, I don't see him in that part. It'd be like replacing Patrick Stewart with Bruce Willis in the last X-Men movie.

IIRC, due to the order and timeframe in which the contracts were signed for the original, Terrence Howard was actually the highest paid actor in IronMan and he wanted more than Downey was getting for IronMan 2, studio wasn't going to go for that a second time.

Yeah, there's a quote from Howard on Wikipedia that makes it sound like he was signed on for IM2, but the studio decided not to honor the contract.
