Terrence Howard Feels Iron Man's Coldness

Iron Man's BFF will now be played by Cheadle.

Terrence Howard is out. Don Cheadle is in. Cheadle will replace Howard as bestie to metallic male, Tony Stark, in Iron Man 2, the sequel to this summer's breakout blockbuster.

The reason for the replacement? Money, surprise surprise. Given what a big box office smash the first movie was, and the larger role planned in the sequel for Howard's character, Jim Rhodes, this has to sting for Terrence.

Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, and director Jon Favreau are all expected to return. They know which side their armor's oiled on.
