Terrence Howard Is Definitely Not Down To Return To The MCU

I don’t think many in the world are clamoring for Marvel to give Don Cheadle the ax and bring back Terrence Howard, but if they are he is definitely not interested. The actor recently spoke out about whether or not he’d return to the universe after exiting his role as James Rhodes following Iron Man, and said the following (via Comicbook):

You know what's so funny? Even though I love Don Cheadle so much and I love what he's done, I still hear a lot of fans asking, 'Am I going to come back and be War Machine? Am I going to come back and be War Machine?'. I think they could have a huge franchise off of it, but f-ck em.

Well damn. Of course, it’s understandable from Howard’s point of view as he alleges Marvel tried to pay him an 8th of his salary from the first film to return to Iron Man 2. Howard declined, and the rest is history. Personally, I think it’s for the best, although I do sometimes wonder what would’ve happened if Howard stayed on to become War Machine. Do you think he would’ve played the part differently than Cheadle? Would you have preferred it?
