FANTASTIC FOUR Casting Updates

>Matt Smith has been offered the role of Reed Richards. Adam Driver was director Matt Shakman’s top choice, but passed because he didn’t like the script. Marvel plans to approach him again following rewrites. Dev Patel is also on the shortlist.

>Vanessa Kirby is locked in as Sue Storm after Emma Stone and Margot Robbie passed due to salary disputes.

>Joseph Quinn is locked in as Johnny Storm after Paul Mescal passed due to scheduling conflicts.

>Marvel wants a “fat white guy” for Ben Grimm after Daveed Diggs passed due to scheduling conflicts.

>Ebon Moss-Bachrach is locked in, but not as Ben as previously reported. He will actually play Galactus’ herald Terrax. Antonio Banderas is still in talks for Galactus.

      Johnny and Ben Grimm were guys who get all the women having Ben Grimm as a fat guy will kill the character from the beginning his pain of being the THING will be meaningless

    Making Sue the lead is a really weird fricking choice. I'm almost convinced Feige is getting pegged

      Not really. She's usually the one that balances Reed's autism, Johnny's douchebaggery and Ben's mopeyness to hold the family together.

        Oh so they want to do a repeat of Strange 2 where Wandavision was required viewing to understand the plot but fricking nobody watched Wandavision so everyone was confused what the frick was happening? Bold strategy for sure

          They did the same for Guardians of the Galaxy 3 too. You didn't HAVE to watch the Christmas special, but it added a lot of context.

    How fricking old do they want the Four to be? Don't they want to try to milk movies out of them for years?

      Reed in his late 30s/early 40s, Sue in her mid-to-late 30s. They want to do Franklin and Valeria eventually. Gotta' have them be a little older for that.

        Reed in his 45 to 50 in the comics
        Sue 16 to 19 in the comics
        Johnny in his 19 in the comics
        Ben in his 40 in the comics

          Maybe in the very first comics, but Sue has been consistently been portrayed as in her mid/late 30s, while Johnny is in his early/mid 20s.

      They needed to though. Driver/Robbie put butts in the seats. Kirby/NoNameLoser pushes fans away.
      Shoulda backed up the $$ Truck, no Marvel will be like DC = dead and buried

        Not really. People go to see the character, not the actor. Sure guys like Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth are megastars now, but they'd still be nobodies if they didn't get the superhero gig.

          But that was the right way to take young actors and make them stars these actors are the ones who like fun and not that ones like Larson who refuses to wear the comic costume, with young actors you don't have that they are more humble and they won't get paid 10 million per movie and they won't complain about getting in good shape either but they destroyed the MCU also by going after Oscar winning stars who won't add anything
