While at Sundace this past weekend to promote the upcoming movie, Miles Ahead, Don Cheadle spoke on his Marvel character, War Machine. In an interview with SuperHeroHype, Cheadle spoke on how close to heart Marvel keeps their ideas, essentially leading him to tell SHH that he never knows whats happening with War Machine until it happens.
“I never know what it’s going to be and they keep their cards very close to their breast with Marvel,” Cheadle told SHH. “I never know where the character’s going to go, but he’s become more and more and in the next one, you’ll see that what happens to Rhodey is a little bit more intense and pivotal to what happens in the rest of the stories.”
Don also spoke about his experiences on each Marvel Cinematic set.
“I ultimately like it when we’re there and I’m working with other actors and it’s fun, but it can be very tedious,” Cheadle says about the experience playing in the Marvel Universe. “A lot of time you’re looking at a green screen and a tennis ball on a C-stand, and it could’t be more antithetical to doing what Miles Ahead was, but you just give over to the elements and go, ‘Oh these are the toys and I’m playing with the biggest and best toys’ and we’re flying around and doing stuff that if I was ten years old, I would be having the greatest time in my life.”
If you have yet to the see the trailer for Captain America: Civil War, you can do so by watching it, here. This interview with SHH will make sense to you once you see the position Marvel is leaving War Machine in.
Captain America: Civil War will be opening up in theaters on May 6, 2016.
