Howard 'surprised' by 'Iron Man' sacking
Terrence Howard has confessed that losing his role in the Iron Man sequel was the "surprise of a lifetime".
Don Cheadle last week replaced Howard in the role of Jim Rhodes, superhero Tony Stark's best friend and military liaison.
Howard told NPR that Marvel had broken promises and failed to complete negotiations with him for Iron Man 2.
"It was the surprise of a lifetime," he said. "There was no explanation. [The contract] just... up and vanished. I read something implicating that it was about money or something, but apparently the contracts that we write and sign aren't worth the paper that they're printed on. Promises aren't kept, and good faith negotiations aren't always held up."
