Robert Downey Jr. on Howard's Replacement

[Sussudio]

I know we're all tired of hearing about Howard being replaced by Cheadle and the decision has been discussed to death in the forum, but I thought people might be interested to hear what RDJr. had to say about the new Rhodey (although he is kind of vague):

“I had nothing to do with that decision. I love Terrence very very much. That’s all I’ll say because I haven’t talked to him yet. I’ve always admired Don. It’s one of those situations where I still don’t quite know what happened or why.”

“I think the important thing with the Iron Man franchise is to not do too much too soon and to make sure we don’t piss off the public that put us in the position we’re in. We’ve just got to keep rolling up our sleeves higher and further up the elbow. If we show up and we’re in the right head space and our heart’s in the right spot and we really think about the audience at every turn and we don’t try to stamp our hipness onto anything. It’s very interactive.”

That's all for now.

Wait a minute . . . Don Cheadle was gonna play Howard the Duck? Why remake a classic?
