Marvel reportedly bringing back the one character nobody expected

As a long-time Marvel fan who has witnessed the evolution of the universe on the silver screen, I can’t help but feel a rush of nostalgia at the prospect of Sam Rockwell reprising his role as Justin Hammer in the upcoming ‘Armor Wars.’ While it may not have been on everyone’s list of anticipated returns, having Hammer back in the fold makes perfect sense for this storyline.


Marvel Studios consistently pushes the boundaries of what seems plausible within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, demonstrating remarkable ambition as their Multiverse Saga unfolds. The potential scenarios in this grand saga are virtually limitless, but one thing fans can always anticipate is recurring characters.

In Spider-Man: No Way Home, both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield returned as their respective versions of Peter Parker. Meanwhile, Patrick Stewart and Hugh Jackman reprised their roles as Charles Xavier and Wolverine in separate projects. Now, it’s been confirmed that Robert Downey Jr., who has been a part of the Avengers franchise, will return in the upcoming two movies, but this time he’ll be taking on the villainous role of Doctor Doom.

It seems we might witness an actor who previously played Iron Man in a particular film reappear in a surprising manner, as hinted by recent news.

Sam Rockwell rumored to return as Justin Hammer in Armor Wars

As per the Marvel news source, Marvel Updates, it appears that Sam Rockwell is set to make a comeback in the Marvel Studios series for the upcoming film “Armor Wars,” by revisiting his character Justin Hammer from “Iron Man 2.”

Although no formal confirmation has been given so far, it’s an intriguing speculation that Justin Hammer could appear in the Armor Wars project. This is due to the fact that his history with Colonel James Rhodes runs deep, making him a plausible choice for such a project.

Marvel reportedly bringing back the one character nobody expected

As a devoted fan, I’m excited to share that “Armor Wars” is set to bring back Don Cheadle reprising his role as Rhodey. In this storyline, Rhodey takes on the mission to protect Tony Stark’s tech inventions from being misused by unscrupulous individuals. As a close friend of Tony, Rhodey understands the importance of preserving Iron Man’s legacy while ensuring global safety. This upcoming film promises an emotional journey as we witness Rhodey’s efforts to honor his fallen comrade and safeguard our world.

But nobody was more obsessed with Tony’s technology than Justin Hammer. The man lived in Iron Man’s shadow throughout his professional life and, as we saw so very clearly in Iron Man 2, he was willing to do anything to best him. That included sending a murderous villain known as Whiplash after Tony and even stealing Stark Tech in a bid to engineer his own brilliant designs. None of that happened, and he lost spectacularly when Pepper Potts had him arrested and Tony stopped Whiplash – with the help of Rhodey, who had a suit of his own and became the hero known as War Machine.

It’s intriguing to find out if the speculation about his comeback will actually happen. It’s important to note that the “Armor Wars” has gone through quite a lot over the past four years, starting as a Disney Plus series announcement. Later, it was reimagined as a film, but since then, no further updates regarding the project have surfaced.

In recent times, chatter about the movie’s continuation has been growing louder, fueled by various reports and whispers hinting at Marvel potentially scrapping the project. However, since Marvel Studios hasn’t made an official statement on the matter, it’s advisable to refrain from speculating too much. Officially, the film is still in production.

The prospect of Justin Hammer potentially reappearing in Armor Wars is thrilling on its own, but what adds to the excitement is that this is one of the first positive whispers about the movie circulating online in a while. It seems there may still be hope for Armor Wars yet. Fingers crossed that the project gets greenlit and we get to see Hammer again. That would truly be an epic comeback!
