Over the last couple months, rumours have been flying around on who could be in the upcoming Fantastic Four reboot – the first two names that popped up were Miles Teller as Mr. Fantastic and Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm a.k.a. The Human Torch. For a while, neither actor would confirm n’or deny the rumours.
To be honest, after watching The Spectacular Now and Fruitvale Station, I can honestly say these two could surprise the audience with their portrayals.
I’m just going to get the obvious of the way – Johnny Storm will be played by an African- American in the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, and you know what, that doesn’t bother me at all, and it shouldn’t bother anyone else either. It’s about the actors ability to bring the character to life in a new and different way that entertains. Michael B. Jordan (I think) is the right choice, and could surprise some of you. And, after watching That Awkward Moment, I can tell these two have good chemistry and work well with each other.
Then, Kate Mara (House Of Cards) came up in rumours to be playing either Susan Storm or a girl version of Doctor Doom. She (apparently) has been chosen for the role of Susan Storm a.k.a. The Invisible Woman.
The only one who, so far, had no rumours about his involvement in the film is newly recruited Jaime Bell to play Ben Grimm/The Thing, thing is, ComingSoon.net states that he still hasn’t technically signed on (no actual deal has been made) yet.
But, that’s what the cast will probably look like for Josh Trank’s June 19th, 2015 Fantastic Four reboot.
Expect more casting news soon as filming will begin this March in Baton Rouge, LA and a villain has yet to be cast.
