‘Avengers: Infinity War’: Don Cheadle Talks War Machine’s Condition

Captain America: Civil War concluded with Col. James “Rhodey” Rhodes being paralyzed from the waist down following the confrontation between the Avengers. In an interview with Good Morning America, Don Cheadle discussed what condition audiences will find War Machine in when he returns for Avengers: Infinity War.

Cheadle explained that Rhodes will be receiving some tech that will grant him mobility:

“[…] when you have somebody like Tony, who is a master of tech and can create things that can get you over the hump, then you can walk again.”

However, Cheadle would not refer to the device as ‘artificial’:

“I don’t know that I’d like to use that word, I like fake… It’s an augmentation. It’s somewhat bionic.”

As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
