Actor Terrence Howard didn't get picked for the Iron Man 2 kick-ball team and now he's running home to mommy and throwing a tantrum. Well, not exactly, but you get the idea.

"Marvel made a choice, and it was a very, very bad choice," the actor -- whose role was given to Don Cheadle -- tells Parade.com. "They didn't keep their word. They didn't honor my contract."

Howard says producers didn't share the profits of the flick -- which earned over $318 million -- with most of the actors.

"They produced a great bounty with the first one, but they put it all in the storehouse and you were not allowed in," he says. "They did the same thing with Gwyneth Paltrow , from what I've been told.

The only person who got a raise?

"They did it with everyone but Robert Downey [Jr]," fumes Howard. "One of the things that actors need to do is always stick together: one for all, and all for one."

Putting aside the fact that immediately after throwing Robert Downey Jr. under the bus Howard talks about how actors should stick together, there's one important detail in all of this he seems to have forgotten: he was absolutely dreadful in that movie. I'm not saying he's a bad actor (his performance in Hustle & Flow was excellent), but in Iron Man he was completely wooden and so boring that rumor has it they had to cut out a lot of his scenes.

I understand why an actor might be annoyed if a movie made a ton of dough and he barely got paid for his contribution; it's really a shame actors don't have someone who could negotiate contracts on their behalf before they agree to do a movie. That way there would be no one else to bitch at. What a brilliant idea, right? I don't know where I come up with this stuff.
