Fantastic Four officially cast for reboot

[thunderbolt]

Hell, this makes Ryan Reynolds as GL look good.

Well folks...history has been made today.
This will be the first Marvel movie ever I will not see.

Good thing this isn't a Marvel Studios movie .. it's a 20th Century Fox production. Hence the bad casting.

[Earth 2 Chris]

^Same here. The one guys looks like he needs to lose his baby fat before he upgrades from plucky sidekick.

Chris

[Iron Mego]

Barf :puke:

[jimsmegos]

I must be way out of touch with pop culture because I have no idea who any of these actors are.

[Killer Iguana]

[FETT1]

WHY??????????????????????????????????????

[MIB41]

I could roll around in glue and cover myself with crunchy Cheetos and make a better Thing than the guy they picked.

Classic. Nice one Dwayne.

[cjefferys]

Nobody looks like anybody!

Exactly! This looks like a train wreck already. I can't see ever wanting to even watch this unless a miracle happens.

The thing that sucks is that the FF have been my favourite superheroes since I was a kid. I haven't liked any of the films so far, none have done them justice and it looks like that will continue. God, I so wish that Marvel/Disney had the movie rights.

[Earth 2 Chris]

^For all those who groaned about Corman's psuedo-film, and Tim Story's two films, any of those previous actors look like they stepped off of Jack Kirby's drawing desk compared to these folks.

Who knows....it may actually be good. But I can't see anyone looking at this cast and going "All Right!"

And Johnny being portrayed by a black actor is the least of my complaints. He actually seems more appropriate than the other two guys!

Wheres Chiklis?

I just like how Trank denied every leak as a lie. Now half turn out true.

I just hope they hold to the "government weapons" storyline. Sounds like Millar revamped his Miracle Park script for FF. The timing works out.

As I said before, I've been waiting for a Misifts Of Science "reimagining". Here it comes.

And all the X-Men/FF tie-in talk makes this feel/look like rebranded New Mutants. Very odd. Never understood why Fox didn't try and swap rights with Marvel. Trade FF for something that should/could be apart of the X-Universe.

Like Alpha Flight. Where does that reside? I mean, then they could shoot in Vancouver as a stand-in, for Vancouver.

This has to be the most random casting ever for any movie based on anything. I feel like a stack of headshots and a dart game were involved.

Up next: Abe Vigoda as Darkseid and Betty White as Starfire.

Chris

LOL Fish as Darkseid :-)
Betty would be hot in the Starfire costume LOL

^The entire movie is a mistake if you ask me.

I could roll around in glue and cover myself with crunchy Cheetos and make a better Thing than the guy they picked.

It feels like A LOT of desperation to "make it youthful" went into this - probably by executives feeling very insecure about their age - and not much else.

[Brazoo]

I do like Kate Mara on "House of Cards". So I guess there is that?
