The idiot internet deciding Vanessa Kirby isn't hot is one of the most hilariously idiotic things I learned today. Good job, guys.



She does look a bit like Duff McKagan in drag.

Yeah the Hollywood defenders always get so angry that people aren't going to watch a film due to this nonsense and will openly state that is the reason why.

This irks me so much.

If they had wanted a female herald, there IS ALREADY ONE - Nova.



I believe Stardust may also be a female herald.

It's not like the Silver Surfer is some kind of hugely well known brand, like Spider-Man, or Captain America. You could EASILY have tweaked the origin story of Galactus and his heralds to fit Nova into the same position.

Vanessa Kirby is attractive. She's also a good actress. Great casting, IMO.

the casting of the FF is actually really exciting.

I am wondering where we go villain wise.

Although Julia Garner can play a psycho as well as
anyone i just hope it isn’t all SS leading to like 10 seconds of galactus.

Like i’ve said 50 times, I want Doom

The rumors around the original casting announcement were Javier Bardem as Galactus.

While plot details for this film are unknown, sources say Garner will play Shalla-Bal, a version of Silver Surfer from the comics.


Don't want. I haven't waited for the FF to join the MCU for this long to get some stupid elseworlds alternate universe version. No thanks.

I don't remember enough Sue Storm from the comics. Was she supposed to be wildly hot?

When I see her I think of tough, intelligent, sharply beautiful. Like Robin Wright in House of Cards. I wouldn't be surprised if they chose this to make her more of a peer to Reed Richards rather than the Jessica Alba type of Sue Storm.

fricking up Silver Surfer is classic Disney though. Of course they would. Perfect chance to reset and do right for the fans with a really cool property and they frick with it.

Pedro Pascal couldn't be more wrong for Reed Richards anyway. The other two are fine, though I don't know if Ebon can play a surly enough character.

Nothing in your post is justification for race or gender swapping any characters ever.

Agree to disagree. I find her mediocre to the point of definitely being no Sue Storm.


Has anyone noticed how common these mid-30s women castings are these days? When, in movie history, were mid-30s white women this common?

Think about who writes this stuff and you'll quickly figure out that it's not random...


Phoebe Waller-Bridges....Brie Larsen...kind of all the same demo...
