Next up for the Air Force's top fighter is an appearance in Jon Favereau's, Iron Man. In the film, Terrence Howard stars as Air Force Lt. Col. James Rhodes, a familiar name to fans of the comic book. Howard prepared for the role by visiting several Air Force bases, including Edwards AFB (Air Force Base) and Nellis AFB. Faverau used the F-22 and some Air force extras in the film to add some authenticity to the film.

Michael Bay went with all new looks for most of the transforming robots in his adaptation of the popular cartoon (and toy line) Transformers. In the film the Decepticon known as Starscream was significantly updated . Megatron's second in command now transformed in to the F-22 Raptor instead of the previous incarnation, an F-15 Eagle (the F-22's predecessor). The film also featured several F-22's in a chase sequence over Downtown Los Angeles.
