Babywipes Booted From Iron Man: 2

Terrance ‘Baby Wipes’ Howard is no longer set to play Iron Man’s sidekick:

The Oscar-nominated star of “Crash” and “Hustle and Flow” has been booted from “Iron Man 2,” and will be replaced by Don Cheadle, according to The Hollywood Reporter. His departure reportedly comes after negotiations between the actor and Marvel Studios broke down over financial considerations, “among other differences.” The actor’s reported disappearance from the franchise is both curious and startling, given how positively giddy he has sounded about continuing to work on the comic book adaptation, which set up an expanded role for the character in the series’ first installment.

Babywipes was just too soft as that character. Didn’t y’all see Dainty Dan tear up in a couple of scenes that did not call for it at all? SMH. Hopefully Don Cheadle can lend the role the manliness that it needs.

For more on how “giddy” he was about the role, check out Livesteez….

    Thats what greed will get ya, booted from the movie. Hit me up I’m offering discounts on multi million $$ deals.

  • roosevelt taylor

    Thats what you get you biatchhh

  • sepia830

    Now Terrance Howard won’t have any extra $$ to put in his man-purse.

    Love me some Don Cheadle so I couldn’t be happier.

  • Kaiya

    I have never seen Terrence looking feminine. He looks damn good.

  • Shannon

    I would have loved to see Howard as War Machine, but I guess it wasn’t meant to be. I wonder if negotiations broke down because money. Maybe he wanted as much as Downey, which of course doesn’t make sense. Or maybe he wanted to be in Avengers…

    I want to hear more about this, it sounds interesting.

  • Seek the light beyond the shadows

    I was trying to figure out who in the game could play Barark Obama. I’m convinced Terrance could. Anyone have any other suggestions??

    I aint gonna lie, Terrance played that part smooth as hell in Iron Man, but c’mon man, tkae what you can get in this game. You aint fully A-list yet!

  • Seek the light beyond the shadows

    @ Athena

    You might be on to something, Big WIllie could definitely play Obama.

  • Shootingstar

    The pretty factor in that movie just went down 35%.

  • Seek the light beyond the shadows

    What about Hill Harper, he could do it…

  • shaunyc56

    He was never right for Jim Rhodes, he just doesn’t have enough bad assery to pull off being in the War Machine armor. And yeah, he did tear up for no reason several times, good actor, but way to soft….

  • honeychild

    He is going to be wishing for that money in the future when he can’t get a job selling those beloved baby wipes.

    @SEEK

    I think the Barak Obama movie begins and ends w/ Will Smith. The regular looking chick from set it off could play Michelle.

  • Bringthanoize

    Christopher B. Duncan(Jamie Foxx Show)would be better than Will as Obama in my mind.

    I’m tired of Will this and Will that it’s time to move on to another acting brother.

  • Mock Rock Star

    @KD305 (Get off the Lords bus if you aint got correct change!)Love that name!!!

    I have to disagree with majority of these comments. Terrence has been in this game for more than a decade and (I have to say this)if U aren’t Denzel (not hating on him, he’s great) then these honkeys will always try to play U and then downplay your contributions. One of Terrence issues is that he one of those light skinned blacks (like me) and whites will act like they “like” U, but hate U for all sort of reasons…well, that’s been my life thus far…listen to Paul Mooney if U really want to hear how “white people” feel about U.

  • I’m Just Me- Buffalo Bills (4-1) WE GOT THE CHARGERS ON THE 19th!!

    I like Don Cheadle better so I don’t care. I guess Terrance hasn’t learned from the Bill Cosby incident. This man has gotten too big for his britches!! For real! I am not impressed with him. Doesn’t he realize there is an economic crisis going on out here? He needs all the jobs he can get.

  • Makin It Happen

    Way to go Terrance, you know your worth don’t settle for less. For all we know he could have had a better offer for another project and if they couldn’t top it then so be it.

  • KErry

    better luck next time..

    Times are hard and the economy is very bad.

    If you are in need of a little cash of up to $1500, I can help you out.

  • Lacombe Redbone (…Awe, Tartersauce!)

    DON CHEADLE FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!

    …Yeah, i said it!

  • Encyclopedia Brown

    Don Cheadle is one of my favorite actors, but I don’t think he’d be a good for a super hero

  • bootlegger

    his role wasnt even that big in the movie anyway.i think he’s an idiot for letting himself be boot over money, based on the success of Iron Man 2, he’d probably get even more to do 3,4,5…

    and not to mention offers of other roles in these huge movies.

  • and what…?

    he just messed up a good thing. Idiot! Sounds like he was trying to expand his role a little too much “Mr. I Don’t Want to be a Sidekick.” Good riddance — I hate him!

  • Seek the light beyond the shadows

    Maybe Terrance can stick to singing. LOL
