James "Rhodey" Rhodes almost suited up as War Machine in 2008's Iron Man, but this would have altered his story, and changed the MCU's Armor Wars.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Marvel Studios' original plan for James "Rhodey" Rhodes' origin story as War Machine in 2008's Iron Man would have seriously impacted his future in the MCU, and made changes to his upcoming adventures. Terrence Howard debuted as Colonel Rhodes, Tony Stark's best friend, in Iron Man, but the role has become more synonymous with Don Cheadle, who has portrayed Rhodey since 2010's Iron Man 2.
Iron Man's Altered War Machine Background Would Have Changed Armor Wars Years Before Close In Marvel Studios' The Art of Iron Man book, it's revealed that Terrence Howard's Rhodey almost suited up as War Machine during 2008's Iron Man, rather than waiting until the 2010 sequel to explore the origin story of the armored hero.
Not only would this have brought War Machine's MCU origin story forward into Iron Man instead of Iron Man 2, and introduced Marvel Comics' Crimson Dynamo into Marvel Studios' first project, but this would have also changed War Machine's motivations throughout his MCU journey.
