Mr. Incredible - John Krasinski
Invisible Woman - Emily Blunt
Human Torch - Zac Efron
The Thing - John Cena
Dr. Doom - Jason Clarke

Have Idris Elba play all 4 members of the Fantastic Four, a la Eddie Murphy in The Nutty Professor.

Dr. Doom - Joseph Gordon Levitt

His performance as Cobra Commander has me convinced that he would kill this.

John Krasinski and Emily Blunt have to be Mr and Mrs Fantastic at this point. They are perfect for those roles.

A Quiet Place confirmed they do very well on screen together and they didn't even talk to each other.

Love that casting except for John Cena. I'd like to see David Harbour take a stab at that (let's pretend Hellboy didn't happen). That and I think Affleck could make a great Reed Richards, but I don't see him going into another superhero movie

This is Germans, but I grew up on the FF and really want to see a successful reboot of this beloved team. So I'll play again.


Reed: Topher Grace

Sue: Haylie Duff

Johnny: Josh Hutcherson

Ben Grimm: Mark Wahlberg



DOOM: Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jamie Lannister GOT)


Note: I would rather them not try another "Doom" because he is such a complex character that Doom almost needs a movie of his own or to be established in another MCU movie before a fight with the FF.

Personally, I would rather have a Sub-Mariner with Dwayne Johnson or a Proper "Galactus" with the "Watcher" movie...or even Annihilus

Based on his Wired interview I think David Harbour may be in talks to play The Thing

Krasinski and Blunt would be absolutely perfect for Reed and Sue. Really hoping at least that much happens.

Efron I think is slightly too old for Johnny. I could see him as Adam Warlock though in GotGv3.
For Johnny, I’d like to see someone younger around Tom Holland’s age or so. Dacre Montgomery would be great, he has presence and that cocky attitude down.

Ben Grimm ideally I’d like David Harbour but I’d support Cena too. The former I think could have chemistry with Dacre from their Stanger Things days.

Dr. Doom to me is the most critical because he’ll have a huge presence and I’m uncertain. Needs to be around the age of Reed and no older than RDJ was for Iron Man 1. Saw JGL in here and he’d crush it, but not sure he’d commit for like 5-10 films. Seems more like a one off.

How many times do you get to try to get something right? This is ridiculous.

I mentioned him in jest. You seem to be serious about it.

Mr Fantastic:


Sue Storm:


Johnny Storm:


Ben Grimm:


Doom:
