The Fantastic Four: First Steps (Matt Shakman, July 25, 2025) Movie • Page 3

well

 

So the reason there's no cast is they're still writing the screenplay ,I know they cast Blade without one

 

That's because when Mahershala Ali asks to play Blade, you fuckin' let him play Blade.

 

Personally do not want that. Not sure why but doesn’t feel right.

 

Him doing mcu feels unlikely

 

Yeah I really don’t want him tied up with the MCU

 

He’s been a busy guy. We’ll still get other roles from him while he is playing Reed.

Many actors are now seeing longer breaks between MCU films due to how many new characters and films Marvel has been juggling.

 

I am Sue Storm

 

I’m the thing, no make up needed.

 

"Scoopers" are shaking. They'll be out of business once the official castings are announced.

 

The family dynamics in way of the water gives me a little bit of confidence in that choice, if theywere responsible for those pieces

 

Jesus

 

I love Pedro but this is terrible casting? I’ll eat crow though.

 

Ew ew ew

I really wish the industry would fucking just stop this and pick the right people for the role not just "well, he's the hot stuff right now"

 

When has Marvel ever actually done that though?

 

Pedro Pascal is a great actor. What's the problem?

 

There are a lot of great actors, doesn’t mean I’d cast them as Richard Reed.

 

Their supposed number one pick was Jake Gyllenhaal. Pretty sure we dodged a bullet

 

Jake Gyllenhaal rules wtf? But I don’t want him or Pedro in the MCU.
