Verb, "to cheadle" or "to be cheadled." For a film actor or actress to be recast in a sequel for reasons other than necessity (like death or age). Particularly a sequel in keeping with the canon of the first film(s), thus excluding franchise reboots. The "cheadling" can apply to both the actor being replaced, as well as the audience for the dissonance caused while watching. Named for Don Cheadle replacing Terrence Howard as James Rhodes in Iron Man 2. Can also be used more colloquially to reference anyone being bizarrely replaced in any walk of life.
1. Edward Norton was cheadled out of The Avengers.
2. Maggie Gyllenhaal in The Dark Knight? Why, we have experienced a harsh cheadling indeed!

When the “crush” has no intentions of taking things further, but they like the attention. So they flirt here or there, send dm/texts just to keep the person interested, knowing damn well they’re staying single.
Danielle was so flirty the other night, he messaged me 3 times just to say hello, I think he’s coming around.
No Susan he’s breadcrumbing you just so you’ll keep nibbling at his heels.

An African-American transvestite or transsexual. So named due to the fact that no matter how feminine black guys try to appear, they always end up looking like Don Cheadle in drag.
I took my girlfriend to the Christmas Party to show everyone at work how progressive I was, and the fuckers only stopped laughing to inform me I was in fact dating a Cheadle.

Fake tits on an African-American transsexual/transvestite (also referred to as a Cheadle). Named after acclaimed actor Don Cheadle, for whom most black trannies resemble in a feeble attempt to look feminine.
You'd have thought the Adam's Apple would've tipped me off, but it wasn't until I reached under her shirt and her Cheadles popped out that I figured out "Candace" was most likely Barry, the black network tech from the 3rd floor.
