Every Major MCU Hero's Greatest Ever Moment

27. Rhodey - Standing Up To Secretary Ross

From the very first movie of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, James Rhodes has stood by Tony Stark’s side as his best friend, and in time, fellow superhero. Though the actor that portrayed Rhodey may not have been constant, Rhodey himself certainly has been.

The character’s greatest moment in the franchise is likely yet to come, as he is set to star in his own series on Disney+ in the coming years. Pre-Armour Wars, Rhodey’s role has been limited to supporting the characters around him, however that hasn’t stopped him from being a badass.

Despite his adamant defence of the Sokovia Accords, even going so far as to arrest Steve Rogers along with Bucky, Sam, and T'Challa, he was big enough to realise his mistake when Earth was under threat from Thanos.

When Captain America returned, Secretary Ross remained petty, and ordered Rhodey to arrest him. However, possibly for the first time in his life, he disobeyed a direct command, instead simply hanging up on Ross in spite of it being a court martial offence.
