As a long-time Marvel fan and follower of Don Cheadle’s impressive career, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and frustration when it comes to the “Armor Wars” project. On one hand, the prospect of seeing War Machine take center stage in his own film is incredibly appealing, especially with the talented Yassir Lester at the helm. Yet, on the other hand, the project’s seemingly endless delays have left me feeling like a kid eagerly awaiting a Christmas present that just won’t arrive.
Ah, Armor Wars, the often overlooked sibling. Compared to the other Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) projects that have seen significant advancements lately, this Don Cheadle-starring spin-off has been rather neglected. Initially announced as a Disney+ series back in 2020, its development faced numerous setbacks. In 2022, it was disclosed that the series was being transformed into a full-length film instead. Despite some fans fearing they might never get to watch Armor Wars, regardless of its format, the head writer Yassir Lester has recently shared an encouraging update.
When talking to MovieWeb to publicize his new movie The Gutter, featuring Shameik Moore from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Yassir Lester humorously gave a cautious but generally optimistic update about the series. Laughing, he remarked that working for a massive company like Marvel (which is owned by even larger conglomerate Disney) means keeping quiet about projects until they’re officially released. Jokingly adding, “For fear of them retaliating while I’m on this Zoom call… I’m just kidding,” he lightheartedly expressed his apprehension around discussing the series before its release.
Everything’s still in development.
Following some light-hearted jabs at Disney, Yassir Lester assured everyone that the project Armor Wars is indeed moving forward. Although this news may bring joy to many, Lester’s statement was not as detailed as some fans might have anticipated. In his words, “Everything’s still in development.” Capitalizing on the opportunity for another chuckle, the writer playfully poked fun at Disney’s potential issues with upcoming releases, adding:
Just like how Blade [starring Mahershala Ali] vanishes and reappears the day after, the events of Armor Wars will be a recurring cycle – happening every few months, then stopping for a while, only to start again.
Don Cheadle Is Equally Confused About Armor Wars’ Development
Even fans outside of the Marvel Cinematic Universe are perplexed and worried about the prolonged production issues surrounding the film Armor Wars. Its main star, Don Cheadle, shares this confusion as he’s unsure if or when the project will materialize. Recently, when asked about the series, Cheadle humorously responded, “Feel free to inform me,” indicating his own lack of knowledge on the subject.
Currently, I’m unsure about the exact locations of items. It seems like everything is in a state of flux, undergoing significant transformations. Time will tell as events unfold, revealing their true nature.
There isn’t much information available about the storyline of the upcoming movie, Armor Wars, as its format has changed to a feature film. However, it’s anticipated that Don Cheadle will re-emerge in his well-established character, Rhodey (also known as War Machine). The movie is hinted to delve deeper into the world established by the Iron Man films. Yet, until an official synopsis or plot details are revealed or leaked, it remains unclear what Disney intends with that description.
Currently, there’s no confirmed release date for the movie. It appears that it might come out post-“Avengers: Doomsday” and “Secret Wars,” where Robert Downey Jr. reprises his role as Dr. Doom in the MCU. The upcoming film, “Armor Wars,” could potentially explore the aftermath of Rhodey encountering a formidable new villain who bears a striking resemblance to his late best friend.
