Though Don Cheadle’s Col. Rhodes (friends call him Rhodey) wasn’t even mentioned in The Avengers, Hitfix has confirmed he will have a key part in the upcoming sequel, Age of Ultron.
Cheadle took over from Terrence Howard in Iron Man 2, though it wasn’t until Iron Man 3 that the character became an integral cog in the Marvel universe, evolving into the Iron Patriot.
Hitfix suggests this is Marvel’s way of looking to a future without Robert Downey Jr. in the Iron Man suit. Could Cheadle seriously anchor his own Iron Patriot movie?
We’ll find out, maybe, when Joss Whedon’s Age of Ultron hits cinemas in 2015.
