The Fantastic Four: First Steps (Matt Shakman, July 25, 2025) Movie

will update with more info as i see em. hopefully this will be the first FF movie that doesn't fucking suck, give or take both incredibles movies

 

Watts here too? Ugh

 

Hi.

I don’t like Jon Watts’ Marvel movies.

You should read Jonathan Hickman’s Fantastic Four run.

Bye.

 

hi tim

 

Wait but I thought Jennifer Lawrence was currently flying out to Australia to start filming

 

New "leak" casting from someone who reportedly worked on the Ant-Man film. I'd take it with a grain of salt.

Reed Richards - Glenn Howerton
Sue Storm - Kristen Bell
Johnny Storm - Chase Stokes
Ben Grimm - Seth Rogen

 

Wat

 

apparently the source is 4chan so not real haha, I was like they're all like 40 I think they're gonna go a bit younger

 

Howerton is 45 and Bell is 41. Marvel will want to cast younger. Don’t buy it.

 

If it's real though, what's the take on it? At first glance, I don't dislike it. Or I guess I don't have a reason to dislike it.

 

awful. glad it’s very obviously fake.

 

It’s not real so no point in paying it any mind

 

Now I want it to be real.

 

The only reason I wouldn’t mind it being real is because Howerton. He was almost Star-Lord and needs a second chance with the MCU.

I’m not putting any hope into it until another scooper mentions it.

 

lol no chance. It's going to be young up and coming actors

 

I could see the Reed casting

 

okay then!

 

Good, get someone new in there

 

Bryce denied being in this

 

I read about that on Reddit and some people think she brushes it off in a very suspicious kind of way, with the whole "I don't think it's" sounding like she was fumbling a little.

In any case, of course she'd deny it even if she was, because that's what they're supposed to do. It's dumb to think she'd just come out and say...

 

we’ve been through this dozens of times at this point. of course they’re going to lie if they are in it. they’re legally required to do so. nothing they say matters until a cast is actually announced

 

Bryce is also a potential director for this
