After Jonathan Majors was removed from the MCU and Robert Downey Jr. was made Doctor Doom in the cinematic universe, it has been quite a long time since people have heard aboutArmor Wars.
So, what is the deal here? Why the hold-up? Well, we might not have the exact reason why people haven’t heard aboutArmor Warsbut it seems that Don Cheadle might have the answer!
Don Cheadle Has a Question For The Audience
It is usually the reverse case where we ask celebrities questions and they usually give the answer. The problem arises when the celebrity has a question to ask the audience and Don Cheadle has exactly done that.
Things at Marvel Studios have been kept secret for a long time ever since the time ofAvengers: Endgame.With the hype and rumors surroundingSpider-Man: No Way Home,Marvel tightened its security around possible spoilers.

Fans took to X to talk about how Don Cheadle has confirmed thatArmor Warsis no longer in the works and is allegedly a scrapped project.
So it’s scrapped..Final confirmation
It turns out that the project was canceled🤣
Why do I have a feeling that it got canceled?
Feels more likely that it got cancelled than Marvel actually moving forward with it
Why is he acting like a skrull??? Ohhh wait a minute….
…..oh crap.
Earlier reports from an insider is not helping the case since it was rumored thatSecret Warshadn’t found a director yet and thatit was“nowhere near ready”when it was announced by Kevin Feige!

Well, it seems that Marvel is in a bid to finish what it started but from seeing Cheadle’s reply, it seemsthatArmor Warshas allegedly been scrapped without a director attached.
Is There A Point To Don Cheadle’sArmor Wars?
That is a difficult question to answer. For starters,Armor Warscan be compared to Anthony Mackie picking up the shield of Captain America and starring inCaptain America: Brave New World.
Likewise, Don Cheadle’s War Machine will likely step up and take the role of Tony Stark (since he died inAvengers: Endgame).Armor Warsis that film where Don Cheadle can make a difference and honor the legacy of Tony Stark.
As per a scoop by insider Daniel RPK (viaMurphy’s Multiverse), an earlier report claimed thatArmor Warshadn’t found its director yet.
The insider reports that the studio will open the new year by searching for a director for the film in hopes of being able to begin production at some point in 2025. That would likely put the film somewhere on the studio’s 2026 slate.
However, recent rumors seem to hint that the movie has been allegedly closed off for good. But, it would have been good to see Don Cheadle step up and take on the mantle of Iron Man after his best friend’s death much like The Falcon.
