Marvel Studios just confirmed Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as the Fantastic Four, plus 1960s aesthetic and H.E.R.B...
Who's the guy in the frame?
Ben before his transformation.
pretty sure its meant to be Neil Armstrong suggesting the 60s retro theme is gonna be for the movie.
Who is the guy in the frame who looks like the actor playing the Thing?
Fricking Neil Armstrong? Are you embarrassed to be the way you are?
Doom Easter egg I think
It’s Ben. Doom wouldn’t be a smiling astronaut. Also nice quints.
Funny how most of them look right out of the original comics, and then there's Pedro Pascal just being Pedro Pascal.
I'm genuinely annoyed they've actually gone with Pedro
He's too old, too hispanic, and too bearded.
Beard Reed is to go-to, bro. It's time to accept it.
No.
I refuse.
Half of the 2005 cast is really good (Gruffudd and Chiklis are pretty perfect casts), but then Jessica Alba and Chris Evans kinda sucked.
I think it's likely that Bacarach and Kirby will be good in this, but I'm uncertain about Quinn and I think Pedro is an outright miscast.
>Jessica Alba kinda sucked.
AHAHAHAHAHAHHHHHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAAHHAHAAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I mean yeah, sure, she's hot as frick.
But she can't act and made for a terrible Sue
Who cares?
This is capeshit, do you see what they've done? They chose an Oscar winner to play Carol Danvers and the world saw what a disaster that lousy cast and those lousy decisions that changed her from who she was and changed her to suit their woke style, it was delicious to see those lgbt delusionals who destroyed Marvel losing money.
Not that anon, and you sound moronic anyway, but Brie's casting was fine. With better material she could have shined.
I care because you need more than big breasts or an Oscar for a good performance. Alba's performance sucked about as much wiener as she literally did to get the role.
Frick good performance bring hot women
But I love they cast the ugly ones who looks like trannies, because they are loosing money, this is great
Go read a Playboy if all you care is that they cast a bimbo. I'll take a 6/10 that can give a good performance over a 10/10 that can't act for shit any day. They gotta bring more to the table than just be easy to look at, what's the point of making it a movie in the first place?
>NOOOO I DONT WANT ACTUAL GOOD ACTING ALL THAT MATTERS IS HOW HOT SHE IS!!!!!
Coomers should be chemically castrated. Go watch porn, subhuman.
Anon they wouldn't let her act. It made her quit acting because there was a scene where she was supposed to cry and they told her cry pretty we will cgi the tears in later
>It made her quit acting
It didn't.
Gross.
I mean she's fine if you think the skin texture of a cooked turkey is sexy.
jesus thats a really long neck
Plus he's too popular to be seen as anyone but himself. People won't see his character, just the actor.
and ugly as frick with an annoying voice
Man has no presence. He was nothing in GoT and he's still nothing.
They couldn't get that guy who played Reed in Multiverse of Madness?
He didn't want to do anything more than a cameo. His wife hates capeshit and probably nagged him a lot about it. She even tried to nag Ryan Gosling away from it too.
>She even tried to nag Ryan Gosling away from it too.
Bitter b***h should keep whining while bogging herself, as the Goose rides the highways of Hell.
>...
>...
>...
>...
>...
>I ride
Man put out a banger of a Song
Rumor was he was in talks to play Rich Rider but I know he wanted to be Ghost Rider so bad and I hope he gets to be Johnny Blaze
They've been trying to get Goose for ages. He's even talked about it. But both he, and Keanu, just want to be Ghost Rider. Recent rumours are that GR got upgraded from a tv show to a movie. That to me means Goose is a lock. If they do GR with Goose, then bring in Keanu as Danny for GR 2, they'll manage to wash away the awful taste of the last few years.
>They've been trying to get Goose for ages.
I don't think that's true. I reckon they only ever considered him for Doctor Strange.
Keanu wants to be Wolverine
Based wife, I hope he’s self conscious enough to admit she was right all along.
The only reason John Krasinski was Reed in MoM was because he'd been a popular fancast for years, due to a cheap photoshop of a bearded Krasinski that someone did which regularly kept making the rounds. Normies/secondaries went wild for it solely because "oh my god Jim from The Office in a Marvel movie would be heckin epic!!!!"
Then when they were doing the reshoots for MoM, Feige and co. realised their big cameo scene halfway through the movie needed an actual surprising character/actor appearance which could get people talking, so they brought Krasinski onto a greenscreen set for a day. It's clear from their comments made afterwards that neither Feige or Krasinski ever actually wanted him to be the proper Reed for the MCU. It's a genuinely terrible cast, worse than Pedro, and his lame 5-minute appearance in MoM was basically just a way of appeasing all the normies who only wanted Jim from The Office.
Multiverse of Madness was bad and you should feel bad
I love Cinemaphile shits on reddit but will then nut themselves over the most reddit castings like that.
Elizabeth Olsen even said she never met the guy. Just to show you that his one whole part of Reed was post-production and green screening one day without all the other actors minus Black Bolt actor.
This explains why Captain Carter and Captain Rambeau were nonchalant about Reed’s and Black Bolt’s deaths
I'm general he's close to a deal-breaker for me. I didn't bother with the last of us because of him. I'm the same way with Oscar Isaacs I think. Both are just red flags that an adaptation is going to suck.
NTA, but I'd have taken Isaac a million times over Pascal. Isaac is a legitimately great actor and he looks like a Chad. I'd have taken him as Reed, Doom, Kang, anything. He's being wasted as Moon Knight, and if they desperately wanted some "diversity", he'd been perfect. He's one of the best modern actors and he has legitimate chops. Pascal is nowhere near that. He looks like a dweeb, he acts like a dweeb, it's all wrong.
>He's being wasted as Moon Knight
He was the best part of Moon Knight
Hispanic isnt that problem, just his face is very pointy. Reed is always more square. I dont remember any artist that draw Reed not with a square face and stumpy nose.
NTA, and I’ve said it in other threads, but “Latino” is very broad. You could have a Lilly white blondie and still be a “Latino”. Pascal’s problem is that his face is just all sorts of wrong. He looks like a bird, he has jowls, he can’t grow a beard and he looks perpetually stumped. He doesn’t come off as an adventurer or a genius. Had they gotten Oscar Isaac (wasted as Moon Knight), he’d had killed it because he is legitimately a great actor and he has the Chad look. Pascal just has the same exact goddamn look in everything he plays. I’m not seeing Reed Richards, I’m seeing Tony Stark’s weirdo uncle. Reed with a mustache just doesn’t work.
And honestly, the 60s setting makes it even worse. Why set it in the 60s when your main guy doesn’t even remotely look like a 60s WASP scientist? It’s all kinds of wrong.
>Hispanic isnt that problem,
>NTA, and I’ve said it in other threads, but “Latino” is very broad. You could have a Lilly white blondie and still be a “Latino".
... like Jessica Alba in the first cinematic cast.
Pascal was born in the same Hispanic country that produced an independence leader named Bernado O'Higgins. He's just a weird-looking white dude far from the Anglo Chad stereotype Kirby drew.
Worse cast than the first Fox movie, Feige simply didn't understand what Fantastic Four is, I'll stay away from this bomb, another MCU movie where the blonde has no breasts and ass and the guy who should be Chad is fricking ugly
>>bye bye Kevin Feige that was the movie you were supposed to make for the fans and not for your woke LGBT looser friends
The movie will be underwhelming but Kirby is hot, come on
>not for your woke LGBT looser friends
It's not woke when nobody got changed to black or Muslim. Even seems the actor they cast as Ben is only israeli on his father's side.
Yeah Pedro's a fine actor but atp it's just like casting Giancarlo Esposito as yet another icy businessman villain, played out typecasting.
ngl i dig the new HERBIE design.
I like the 60s look. More importantly, who is /ourguy/
Leaks already said Wallace Shawn
>You fool, RICHARDS! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders - the most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Africa" - but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never go in against a Latverian when death is on the line"!
>who is /ourguy/
He'll only be in the movie for a cameo, but these are the alleged top choices.
mads would be great and he has a strong accent in his english
No hope for this flick but in an ideal world of worthy material Fiennes would be the greatest Doom https://youtu.be/VmtMURyOp48?si=PwzlVt4PvHcxN0Y6
I'd throw money at Mads, and yes I know I know... "b..but he was Kaecilius in Doctor Stra—" no one gives a frick about that, just give it to him
They'd get shit for not casting a gypsy in the role
Making Doom a gypsy in the first place is pretty racist.
>Eastern European mysticism?=Gypsies!
He's romani
he's also white and blue eyed
Not blue eyed. Doom have brown eyes, just like Richards.
Doom with blue eyes is a coloring mistake.
Literally who gives a shit about gyppos and the fire morons on X who whine about it? In what possible universe is a major studio going to cast some 5'3" goblin as their biggest villain in a major motion picture? Just because Kirby and Lee were moronic Americans doesn't mean we have to keep pretending. MCU Doom better be a descendant of Dracula like in 1610.
Who gives a frick about it being "racist"? It's moronic, because there never is a single European character. It's all either Neo-Nazi Germans or "poow opwessed gypsies".
That's the same thing, dipshit.
The real stipulation about Doom is that the actor would have to wear a mask for the majority of his screentime.
Screw it, just have a guy in a mask and its JAMES EARL JONES voicing him.. or Morgan Freeman.
James Earl Jones is 93, I'm pretty sure the last time Darth Vader appeared in Disney stuff his voice was AI. Morgan Freeman has been sleepwalking in every role for the last 30 years.
There are certain autists like Cavill and Urban who'd insist on the mask even, but I don't know. Honestly, this is the type of thing that makes me worry for Doom's screentime. Ideally he would be a Loki type appearing again and again waiting for the right time to grab ultimate power, but how do you do that when you need a top tier actor with gravitas and also make him hide his face 90% of the time?
I honestly think Mads is the most likely choice. He'd do it for the money and to have fun, he's a big enough name, and he'd keep at it for years and years as long as the paychecks keep clearing.
Look anon, I'm going to be nice, but why do you nitwits keep repeating this? Vader's mask is completely different from Doom's. The whole point of Doom's mask is that his eyes, y'know, the "windows to the soul", are always visible, showing the sliver of man under the armour he's built for himself to hide in. Take away that and you have literally nothing. That's why you need a top tier actor for Doom, because you need someone who can act with just his eyes.
Ok throw KYLO REN into it
I want Nikolaj Coster Waldau personally.
No way they're going to cast a big actor. Big actors have contracts and egos where they can't cover their faces for too long. It'll be some nobody.
They probably won't even have an actual actor play Doom. It'll be a random guy in a suit with a somewhat notable voice actor like with Groot
yeah nobody has ever played the phantom of the opera
no famous actor has ever done a voice performance either
These two are gonna be really bad CGI, aren’t they?
no they're already dousing cousin in countless cosmic rays to get his rock-scab skin just right. Herbie is being built by the same imagineers that made the hopping Zootopia Judy from SXSW 2023.
What ugly actors, my godness
the concept of comics books is exactly the opposite of that
Javier Bardem and Antonio Banderas are the top choices for Galactus.
Didn't realize Galactus had a Spanish accent
and he has a hunger either for JAAACCK ZZZZPAAAAARROH or milk
he's not even gonna fight them he's just going to call a coin flip and decide whether to spare the earth or not
>Galactus is a latino immigrant who wants to come to your planet and eat up all its resources
what did they mean by this?
Both Bardem and Banderas are Spaniards you Blackmurican mutt.
like the only white spaniards left are their decendants who live in latin america lmao. there are people with 99% iberian purity there.
Knowing Nu-Marlel, they are casting them to spread more leyenda negra bullshit.
>Galactus=Conquistadors
I think Banderas could be a great Doctor Doom.
People would criticize that casting since he isn't Romani.
I don't think Romani would be crazy to be portrayed as villains either.
True, but see the discourse surrounding Elizabeth Olsen's portrayal as Scarlet Witch.
The "discourse" is 4 people on Twitter. Its not that big of a deal.
Fair enough, so what do you think of the cast thus far then? I know people on Twitter are pretty upset about Johnny Storm's casting.
>I know people on Twitter are pretty upset about Johnny Storm's casting.
Don't tell me they actually wanted him to be black again
No, they think the actor who is playing as him is ugly and would prefer someone like Nico Greetham. As I mentioned prior.
I see. From the pic they shared, I feel Quinn is a good enough likeness but I can also see why people were campaigning for Greetham
Quinn managed to play an immature but ultimately likable manchild in Stranger Things so I can see him as Johnny.
Johnny's not a manchild, he's an actual teenager.
>I don't think Romani would be crazy to be portrayed as villains either.
It's not a matter of being represented by a "villain", it's being represented by THE villain, one of the greatest in fiction.
If doom was black and idris elba got casted for him or something every nog from here to timbuktu including myself would nut frivolously.
>drawing Pascal darker than he is to explicitly go "he's Latino!111" when he's literally a Euro Basque
>not giving him the longer hair he's been sporting lately
What is their problem?
>not giving him the longer hair he's been sporting lately
Because that's not his Reed haircut.
Ah yes, that's the thing that'll throw off the Reed likeness as far as Pascal is concerned... Goddamn DishillBlack folk like you should be beaten to a pulp.
That Spider-Bussy is getting stretched to prepare for the inevitable Future Foundation adaptation.
Calm down, homosexual, I'm just saying Pascal currently having long hair doesn't mean Reed will.
you just know
He broke his arm?
Anya Taylor-Joy is the top choice for Nova/"The Herald", but some other names that have popped up like Lily-Rose Depp.
I'd love for them to keep her as Magik.
man that movie had SOVL
Moondragon
Dead on Arrival
it's a cast opposite in every way to Stan Lee's vision, the failure of The Marvels and Eternals didn't show them anything
>Stan Lee's vision
Jack Kirby wants a word
It's too big to fail.
I would agree with you if we were in Phase 1 or 2 but Feige broke the souls of MCU fans with the dreadful Endgame, this cast doesn't call anyone to the theaters
I agree with you too, you're right, but this has too much heat. Anticipated for years, the Fox thing, marvels first family, unless the reviews are dire it should do gangbusters.
What world are you living in? Talk to people other outside of comics forums and comics corners of social media. Nobody else in the world is hyped up for another FF movie, and nobody else cares about them being "Marvel's first family", the MCU already has at least three superhero families, retconning b-b-but these guys were FIRST isn't going to do anything to get them over with people.
>Feige broke the souls of MCU fans with the dreadful Endgame
Cinemaphile really lives in a reality of their own.
>It's real
>Looks like they're actually going with the "Fish-out-of-water time-travellers from the 60s" fan meme
Good, 60's period pieces are fun and it'll give the film a more unique visual identity to most superhero films out there. All of the multiverse and time travel shit is all getting smashed together in Secret Wars anyway, might as well actually experiment in the meantime.
They can still sport out a retrofuturistic Kirby-esque style, while its origins taking place in the present time.
It could even be used as a visual metaphor, to differenciate themselves as a hopeful, more sincere and forward-driven superteam with a child-like wonder that post-Blip Earth so desperately needs, from the in-universe Stark tech and the Avengers' more passé, cynical, overly-designed tacticool aesthetic.
One thing doesn't stop the other.
Also, we already had X-men: First Class doing the 60s period piece. And having them portrayed as time-travellers from the past is so moronic, we already have way too many "out of time" characters in the MCU (Steve, Bucky, Carol, Ant-Man in Endgame, Gamora in GotG3, everyone that got un-blipped post-Endgame).
Every moron who spend years demand this should hand their heads in shame.
Lazily stealing fanfiction shortcuts does not bode well.
Anyone else see Pascal and Hawke in Almodovar's recent gay western short? It was actually really good, check it out if you get a chance.
The movie also switched releases with Thunderbolts.
>Thunderbolts out on May 2, 2025
>The Fantastic Four out on July 25, 2025
Captain America: Brave New World keeping the February 14 release, Blade keeping the November 7 release (for now).
>Thunderbolts
>Captain America: Brave New World
literally no one wants this
I do.
>Captain America: Brave New World keeping the February 14 release
grim
Why?
>Captain America: Brave New World keeping the February 14 release,
>Valentine's Day
>Non-Chris Evans Captain America
Oh come on, women aren't woke enough to fall for this.
>look on twitter and instagram for normie opinions
>it's either
>"THIS SUCKS I WANTED JIM FROM THE OFFICE HE WAS GREAT BRO"
>or
>"PEDRO'S GONNA BE BETTER THAN YOU EXPECT, READ THE COMICS HE'S THE RIGHT AGE AND EVERYTHING, STOP BEING SO RACIST, HE'S PROBABLY JUST A MULTIVERSE VARIANT ANYWAY"
The Marvel Cinematic Universe and its consequences have been a disaster for the nerd race.
You brought misery on yourself then yoiu brought it here
>Vanessa Kirby
They don't want the audience of straight men and the 3 actors are too ugly for women to want to go see the movie
Porn, and Instagram porn culture, has ruined your brain, kid.
This is a male brand. super hero comics books and capeshit, if they don't please the target audience goodbye box office, there is a brand that is made for a target audience, Disney's mistake is not pleasing the male target audience, trannies like you don't exist, don't buy tickets and don't fill movie theaters
If the casting was done by transbians we'd get big titted bimbos for all 4 of the fantastic 4
>If you're attracted to this beautiful actress you're a troony
Bro you are beyond saving.
>This is a male brand
No, it's not. It's a brand for anyone who enjoy comics.
The target audience for super hero’s are boys and men anon, doesn’t mean everyone can’t enjoy them but exclusively targeting women with these movies has failed them just about every single time.
If that means annoying homosexuals like you don't leave the house, then I'm ok with this casting choice.
The pathetic mistake of choosing Brie Larson didn't teach Kevin Feige anything, or he's doing it to dry up his shareholders' pockets.
It's not possible for someone to hate hot curvy blonde women so much
Brie Larson flat ass all over again
Is Pedro's ass good at least
Or even Ben's cgi rock ass
The only thing that actually matters here is Johnny's ass. Did Stranger Things provide any information?
WTF!!??
I was waiting for an Alice Eve or a Sarah Gadon
i won't pay to see a movie with ugly actors
>They kept Pedro's mustache
Why? He looks way too Hispanic like that for a guy named Reed Richards. Also, the movie is gonna be mostly about Sue isn't it
The rumours/leaks have consistently said that Sue is going to be more or less the main character.
No, I don't know why they keep doing this either.
Every FF movie invariably puts the spotlight on someone. The 2005 revolved around Ben, the sequel revolved around Johnny, the 2015 reboot revolved around Reed.
>2025
>Sue
>2027
>It's H.E.R.B.I.E. time
>2027

Throw in the kids and I can unironically see it. Marvel's Spy Kids.
>Please come back to watch our bland movies. We have wholesome mexican dad as Mr. Fantastic!
Oh hi Biden
Predictive programming.
I give zero shits. Frick Marvel.
Only npcs watch this shit.
Ben looks like a limp-wristed homosexual
Gross.
I like Pedro Pascal but he is not Mr Fantastic.
Also Vanessa Kirby is ugly.
>Nu-Marvel Studios movie set in the 60s scripted around Invisible Woman
Imagine the cringeworthy social commentary
You know what i'm actually somewhat excited for this. The one image already tells you so much about what the ton or vibe is going to be and I'm so fricking down for it. It's everything I wanted from an F4 movie. I'll wait to judge Pascal's, Kirby's and Quinn's casting and hope they prove any doubts wrong.
I’ll probably watch Deadpool 3 but not this one. I haven’t seen a Marvel movie since Spider-Man No Way Home - have I missed anything good?
I caught up on Disney plus, while I was grinding Mastery in Brawl Stars. No, you did not
I liked Multiverse of Madness, but many people didn't.
Wakanda Forever was good, but Cinemaphile will never admit it because black people are in it.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 was kino.
Oh wow I totally forgot I saw Multiverse of Madness. It was Raimi kino. I’ll check out Guardians 3 thanks.
>Wakanda Forever was good
It was okay but it really need T'Challa to elevate it and make it memorable. The whole plotline with him dying felt too tacked on and Shuri was just plain bad. I love what Chadwick brought in BP1 but not recasting was a mistake.
I disagree, unironically Chadwick dying and the sequel acknowledging it was the best thing that could have happened to the movie. Gave it a genuinely unique somber tone for a MCU film and better sold the plot about "Black Panther is dead and Wakanda is literally going to shit without him", Shuri also got a revenge arc that made her more compelling as a protagonist than T'Challa was in his first film (because they already used it for Civil War).
If Black Panther 2 had been made with a recast T'Challa then it would have felt like a more bog standard filler sequel.
>Somber tone=Good
Did Secret Invasion even have a somber tone? It just had a boring political thriller vibe, even the major deaths in the show were fairly abrupt without much fanfare.
>Vanessa Kirby born April 1988
>Joseph Quinn born January 1994
I guess that works. Are they going to gloss over the space rocket origin, though? A research scientist being like "I'm taking my 36-year-old girlfriend and her brother my postdoc student on the test flight" feels off.
>le meme mexican dad as autistic dweeb Reed
Raw casting
Going against the general consensus here, I think Pedro Pascal has a lot of range (but just tends to get typecasted a lot, first it was the sexy latino frickboi archetype then it was protective and gritty adoptive dad) so it's not impossible for him to play a decent Reed but it really hinges on if he can play a convincing egotistical butthole.
In hindsight, the 2005 movie had the best casting we'll ever see.
You joke, but Reed especially was excellently cast.
NTA, but Gruffudd looks even Reed-er today.
>the guy from 20 years ago is a better cast than the guy they got now
Jesus Christ, how did it get this bad?
It's the head shape, Pascal looks a bit too like Renner
>You joke, but Reed especially was excellently cast.
Not joking. They were all fine (except Doom, who never is). There was some cringe dialogue, but that's the screenwriter's fault and takes a truly excellent actor to fix once the director orders you to say it.
Ben vs Banner when?
It's fricked up all I can think about is that this is moviebobs fricked up idea for an FF movie.
Be happy it's Pascal. He can pass as a med at least, looking white-ish. It could have been a black guy.
I'm actually surprised they showed restraint here. I'm sure some higher-up must have said "Y'know what? Let's not do Fant4stic again"
>He can pass as a med at least
he IS a med
Basques aren't meds, their language isn't even a romance language
>Ebon Moss-Bachrach as the Thing
Perfect fricking casting with no race swaps in [current year]? Did the ESG money finally dry up or something?
Of course they are not going to mess up a israeli character, anon
I mean the whole cast in general is pretty on point, only one that is maybe is a stretch is Pedro but Latinos are practically the new white at this point.
They cast non-jews in israeli roles all the time, what are you on about? It's actually something you see israeli people complain about, along the lines that they don't get cast for israeli lead roles because the execs want someone doesn't look like them.
In what fricking world is that dweeb perfect casting for The Thing?
Watch the Bear, he's fricking perfect for the role.
That is exactly why he shouldn't be in this. Corny frick in a moronic show.
yeah, if there's one thing the fantastic four are never considered, it's corny
Corny old-fashioned storytelling and family-friendly dynamics are totally different from some pretentious show with horrible acting trying it's best to seem profound. Totally different things you disingenuous secondary.
>anon screams and cries and demonstrates he doesn't know what corny means
>accidentally uses the word he actually should have used to begin with and gives the game away
lol what a pathetic b***h
You said moronic shit without thinking and looked stupid, I'm sorry but you're anonymous so stop being butthurt about it, fake fan. Your gay show sucks too
>laughably idiotic projection and something about a show nobody's talking about but you
you're not fooling anyone
That's not what samegayging is you fricking moron.
You lost
They're no cornier than any other Marvel property. This is a myth from homosexuals that don't read comics. Stop reflexively defending the MCU like a trained shill.
If I don’t jump to Papa Mickey’s defense then the DChuds will win. Snydergays will hang women and minorities in the streets. Is that what you want?
>if you point out that the "family" narrative concept of the f4 is inherently sillier than almost any other superteam, it means you're defending movies nobody was talking about
at least try not to be a stupid fricking homosexual for two minutes
It's not sillier, casual. Read a comic or get the frick out.
Holy samegay lmao get off the Internet
He doesn't look like any prior depiction of non-rock form Ben Grimm nor does he carry himself like him.
>He doesn't look like any prior depiction of non-rock form Ben Grimm
Neither did Michael Chiklis and Jamie Bell.
That doesn't make this any better. Amazing Spider-Man sucking wiener doesn't fix MCU Spider-Man either.
Yelling =/= emotional or good performance
was ESG even a thing back when Fan4stic came out?
They’ll never do it but the U-Foes should be the villains
They already said it’s going to be Heralds of Galactus: Terrax, Firelord, Stardust and Airwalker.
Not anymore. They merged them all into a female Herald who might be played by Anya Taylor-Joy and is presumed to be a heavily modified version of Frankie Raye/Nova.
Which again, it should have been the U-Foes. They have the exact same origin, and neat powers
still never fought the FF in the comics
Pedro could shave his beard at least, frick
Why? The movie is probably going to rely on his latinX heritage to make the 60s seem like hell compared to a liberal society like ours.
>The Hispanic can't be smart!
>The Woman belongs in the kitchen!
>The israelite is a monster!
I dunno, maybe they'll make Johnny gay or something. Whatever.
>Porn star Reed
If I had a nickel for every stretchy character Hollywood has turn into an Hispanic.... I would have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice. I'm looking forward to the Plastic Man casting now
Was it johnny knoxville or keanu reeves that was gonna star in a plastic man movie, I can't remember? It's one of those movies where if you ask the right executive it's still totally in development they swear despite the fact nothing has moved forwards after a decade plus.
Luffy was always latino
Oda wrote him as Brazillian not a sp*c (Brazil Isn't Latin America)
>Brazil Isn't Latin America
Did you drop out in middle school?
What? Luffy was always some type of Spanish, you dense jackass.
Did Joseph Quinn get cancelled or something? I'm picking up a lot of vitriol towards his casting in the normiesphere.
He's just too Bong-looking to be Johnny. The character's whole deal is being a himbo with some actual brains hidden under the rock hard abs. Quinn looks like a methhead. Honestly, the whole thing is wrong. Both he and Kirby are too distinctly Bongish instead of WASPish, and Pascal is as far removed from a guy called "Reed Richards" as it gets. It's not even that he's a "Latino", the guy's a Basque, 100% Euro. He literally just looks like a bird. He doesn't look like a Southern European or anything, he's got a very distinctive face that absolutely doesn't scream "reserved professional Chad rocket scientist". Does this cast scream 1960s WASPs to anyone? Only Ben is actually solidly cast.
thats actually pretty spot on casting for Johnny.
I'm more worried Sue gonna be like a deer in headlights the entire movie. She doesn't seem like she can convey happy and motherly to the team with the facial expressions unless its "YOU KIDS STOP FIGHTING" over a bottle of wine.
>She doesn't seem like she can convey happy and motherly to the team with the facial expressions
Is that even how she was in Kirby's run? Seems weird to think that her original characterization was "being motherly to her brother and an older man who's going to extend his dick into her with her facial expressions."
He’s a good match with Holland which might be the intention.
Finally Peter and Johnny will make out.
Not feeling it for the casting of Johnny Storm or Reed Richards.
A lot of people, at least those most vocal don't seem to agree. I hear plenty would've preferred Nico Greetham portraying Johnny Storm. I'm not familiar with Greetham's work but looks wise, I see a better resemblance to the character. At least somewhat.
I liked him in Stranger Things S4, but he feels and looks just a bit too dorky to actually work as Johnny.
It's not as bad a cast as Pedro, but neither is it making me think "oh yeah he's totally gonna rock as the Human Torch"
Deadpool trailer flops so they pivot to FF, Disney is panicking.
Why is Reed mincing?
Are those the official suits or just casual attire?
I hope Sue is more warm. that actress seems stone-faced as heck.
Eddie from Stranger Things as Johnny I could see.
the whole room has a 60's vibe. I dont know if that means anything. I could just be reading into it.
I laughed out loud when I saw Pedro's name
Would Anya Taylor-Joy have made a good Sue?
No. Too young and ethereal.
>thing has blue eyes
Thank god
noway theyre keeping the mustache
Cousin and Eddie Munson are great casting, imo
Don't know enough about Vanessa Kirby, so whatever.
Pedro feels like a weird choice for an autistic frick like Reed, but I'll trust his abilities as an actor.
I think he'll be able to pull of a nuanced take of Johnny tbh. Less of the chad hunk he's been dipicted as since 90's and instead playing up the fact that he's sort of dork who puts on this playboy persona to make himself seem cooler then he is.
Yeah, Johnny should always be a bit of a goofball that's full of himself like a goofier Johnny Cage
I also feel that they're going for a more James Dean vibe than Abercrombie & Fitch.
I'm looking forward to seeing millions of people suddenly pretend to be hardcore Fantastic Four fans.
Pedro looks fat. Not good.
>Sue runs off with another chick in a world to come
Sorry Reed.
You say that, and that would be easy ESG points, but they've already established Namor in Black Panther 2. Just sayin
I just don't see it for Pedro Pascal as Reed at all.
>cast Doom as Reed
Good job Marvel
>Ben's rocky feet
:3
So were they actually a band in the 60s?
Maybe not exactly, but I can imagine they'll say they were celebrities of some kind after their accident. With that in mind, I wouldn't be surprised if they took some inspiration from The Beatles' heyday (since they had a very similar moniker: The Fab 4)
>Reed is paying attention to Sue instead of the Cosmic Cube
>Vanessa Kirby
You think this is a marketing strategy? To have a Kirby (no relation) in an adaptation of Kirby’s work? Like Marc Webb in TASM.
Get ready for jokes about Sue preferring Latin guys because of Namor and Reed
$100 says you spank it to brown guys
I spank them directly
Oh my god bro, nobody cares. He calls himself latino, not white or Basque, latino. Cope
A rose by any other name would smell just as good and a turd by any other name would smell just as bad. Labels are meaningless. Didn't hating on trannies taught you that? Or you think mtf dudes are women?
Frick yeah, chuds lose again. Hope they stick with Johnny being bisexual and Ben emphasising his israeli heritage
Oh frick, they could even have Reed be an illegal immigrant from Mexico to stand up to the drumpftards.
Can’t wait for the racists to cry because the brown man is married to the blonde white girl hahahaah
Well, the guy they got for Ben has some israeli blood in him already, so they'll no doubt address it in some way in the movie
>Soifacing because you recognize The Thing's actor from some shitty show popular with redditors and critics
Cinemaphile never learns to stop getting hyped for shit like this
Hey man, I only recognize Pedro and Vanessa (kinda. I had to refresh my memory of what she's been in, which was Napoleon. Not saying anything about the quality of that movie, I just remember that was the most recent movie she was in)
He should’ve been reed
That would require someone to give a frick
Always wanted him for Spider-Man
Danny Devito for Moleman
Everyone talking about this taking place in the 60s and theyll end up time traveling to the modern day but I’d put money on this movie not taking place in the main MCU either. Theyll probably merge dimensions in the next Avengers movie or something
I really like when Cinemaphile does casting because it just goes to show how brain-dead and childlike a lot of you are. You cast entirely based on looks and half of you just want to cast wrestlers and girls you jack off to
And it's more soulful and accurate than Hollywood
Thank frick you're not in charge of casting anything.
If you only knew
Can we at least appreciate The Thing design and HERBIE being here? Also Hulk fight when?
>Can we at least appreciate The Thing design and HERBIE being here?
They look nothing like the comics. Should I applaud?
How in the frick does that Thing not look like the comics?
Your being pedantic.
They look more comic accurate of off the images shown alone more than the last couple movies.
Sue is also too old. 35 would be fine for a stand-alone, she's still attractive, but these contracts are intended for over a decade of appearances. She's going to be a hag by the time the next few phases roll around/for her third or fourth movie.
>casting gets officiated
>thread can’t even hit bump limit and is on page 9 with ~250 replies
Lol. Watch this crash and burn. Honestly, I hope it does. This cast is bottom of the barrel tv picks. Not a single charismatic and handsome person in there. A melting wax of a guy with an accent portraying the quintessential WASP and I’m supposed to believe that he’ll be able to pull off the technobabble. The hot stud isn’t even handsome. The MILF looks like an alien. What a joke this is.
The cast actually looks like the comic book characters, so there is not enough people complaining to sent the thread straight to page 10.
This, Capeshit is just plain dead. The audiences are moving to videogame movies bow
>Cinemaphile immediately starts sperging about the most stupid shit possible because they’re butthurt about Pedro not being a bigot
Some of the fan casting in this thread is just painful.
But then again, Brad Bird already made a 1960s looking Fantastic Four movie that was really swell, so this will likely look sad and bad in comparison.
