Over the course of 24 hours, some rumored casting has been released for the Fantastic Four movie within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Now for me personally, I don’t believe any casting rumor until I see a legit Marvel Entertainment post with the cast in the suits, as Fantastic Four is a weird movie where castings have been released. Still, so many are floating around that you can not believe it 100%.
So with that being said, here are the first three rumored castings for the movie. They will respectively be playing Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and an unclear role.
Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm – A fan-favorite actor who thousands upon thousands will know as Eddie from Stranger Things. This rumored casting is actually a really good casting if it is correct. I think Joseph Quinn could bring a new personality to Johnny while still keeping the brash, impulsive, and over-confident Human Torch.
Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm – I absolutely love Vanessa Kirby, she’s a fantastic actor and I truly believe she could capture Sue Storm correctly and just make her a badass. I honestly haven’t been a major fan of Sue whether that be live-action or comics etc, I was a fan of Jessica Alba’s version but even then it wasn’t a major character in my opinion.
Ebon Moss-Bachrach – Reportedly Ebon has been cast in the movie, although his role is unclear at this point. Personally, while this might be controversial, would love to see Ebon as Reed. Ebon I only know of because of three shows but those three shows he absolutely nails the role and is a fantastic part of the shows, those shows being The Punisher, The Bear, and Andor. I could also see him being the villain of the movie. Ebon being Silver Surfer tends to line up with Galactus being the main villain of the movie.
Of course, these are rumors and have come by TheInSneider on Twitter as you can see below.
After Jack Quaid responded on Twitter to the rumor by saying this;
It was then revealed to be Joseph Quinn. So we’ll have to see what happens in the coming weeks/months whether these are indeed real castings and whether Marvel will announce them.
