Terrence Howard Is Talking War Machine?!?
Reported by Jay Cochran - 07:17 PM 2008.04.30
 TERRENCE HOWARD has saluted filmmaker JON FAVREAU for not casting him as IRON MAN - because ROBERT DOWNEY JR. was a much better fit for the comic book hero's heavy metal suit.Howard admits he was an early frontrunner to play Tony Stark/Iron Man and had meetings with director Favreau about the role. Eventually the Hustle & Flow star landed the role of Stark's sidekick and weapons expert Jim Rhodes in the blockbuster - and now he's glad he's not the film's lead. He tells WENN, "For a little while people thought I was going to be Iron Man and it didn't hurt my career at all. "I could have done it, but Iron Man's sensibilities would have been a lot different. I don't know if he would have been as free thinking and free form as Robert's Iron Man. "Robert has a comparative nature - he's been a child of privilege, like Stark's character. He knows what that life is like. "Me, I've had to fight so much that it makes me a little more suited to become War Machine - someone that's always bulldozing right through something, strategising but bulldozing through it. I think they made a really good choice." Hmmm could Terrence be giving us a hint of things to come?
