Collider recently talked with Don Cheadle about the upcoming Iron Man 3 and The Avengers:

"Q: Are there any future Marvel movies that you might be appearing in?

DC: Well the Iron Man 3 is coming back. We'll probably do that again in February and there's talk of a War Machine spinoff, which I guess, unless I get recast, I would probably do.

Q: Will you be in The Avengers?

DC: Not this one that they're shooting right now. Thank god!

Q: Was that ever in the works?

DC: Me being in The Avengers? I have a contract to be in The Avengers but I'm glad they haven't exercised that option yet. I need some down time."

    It's probably because they re-casted him yet again! They've made a very bad habit of doing that.

    HAHAHAHA Cheadle clearly said he wasn't gonna be in Avengers, yet at the bottom it says Don Cheadle in the cast of the Avengers.

    Not sure we need a War Machine film but I'm down for IM3. If he makes it into a future Avengers film fine but it will be pretty crowded with the current lineup involved already.

    A brilliant actor, but so not physically Rhodes also he didn't embody him as much as you would have liked, but he seems game and determined (for the mills)!

    down time? from what? it's not like he's making a ton of movies or anything. but im not disappointed that he's not in AVENGERS. i dont think they're gonna have enough screen time for the people in it, nevermind war machine. unless he was in the iron man battle scene for a few minutes to help out I.M. or something. but not as a full on character.
    somewhere terrence howard is crying.

    I'm glad he's not in the Avengers, not because I dislike Don Cheadle (or War Machine, for that matter), but because they simply don't need him. There are enough characters in that film already. I also don't know if they need a War Machine spinoff, but that's another day's problem.
