‘Iron Man,’ Schmiron Man: Terrence Howard just wants to sing
Terrence Howard is having a dream season for an actor, starring in one of the summer’s biggest movies with the superhero flick “Iron Man” and collecting critical acclaim for his Broadway role in “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.”
At 39, Howard plans to make his musical debut this fall with a mix of soft, pop-rock tunes he wrote or co-wrote. They draw upon his musical influences such as Simon & Garfunkel, Jim Croce and the easy-listening sounds of The Carpenters.
