Terrence Howard was upset when he claimed that Robert Downey Jr. didn't return the favor he did for him. Iron Man.
Recalling the Oscar winner's alleged betrayal, his co-star said in The Joe Rogan Experience He reduced his fee to convince Marvel creators to let him participate in the film.
“I love Robert. I love what he does. I loved him on Weird Science. Well, if Robert wants to come in… So I called Avi Arad immediately. He was the producer and I said, 'Avi, I hear Robert wants to come in but “You guys don't even let him audition,” he said.
The 55-year-old continued: “He says, 'No, we can't tie him up.' I said, 'Instead of the four and a half you want to give me, why don't you take a million dollars as a bonus for him and let him audition?' Then he gets the role. Robert says, 'I love you, thank you so much.'”
Terrence, however, claimed that when he needed it when Marvel decided to recast his role in the sequel, Robert was not available to help him.
“When this other thing happened, I called Robert and he was doing Sherlock Homes,” he noted.
He added: “I called him 27 times and left a message. I called his assistant. I said, 'I need the help I gave you.' I didn't hear from him until three years later, when I ran into him at Brian Grazer's wedding. “.
“But at the time, I'd had Empire or whatever, and when I came back, he was like, 'Oh, but everything worked out for you.' That broke me a little bit.”
