Cast an MCU Fantastic Four and villains

[Crimz]

After the great news that at long last the Fantastic Four film rights are going to Disney, here is the thread for all the fan casting of the characters.

It may be a bit early for this, but I don't care I'm excited!

[Techno_Knight]

Fuck yeah, I've been waiting so long to do this.

1) Reed Richards/Jon Hamm: He's got the acting chops, the looks and even the... uh, "third leg"... What? Reed's canonically a Sex-Monster, it should be portrayed...

2) Sue Storm/Charlize Theron: Elegant, commanding, great actress and beautiful. This should be Classic Sue, but I'm in favor of giving her an Ultimate-esque background of being a biologist or something related.

3) Johnny Storm/Scott Eastwood: Handsome, big family name, good enough acting chops and the guy could use a jumpstart.

4) Ben Grim/Jeffrey Dean Morgan: Come on, don't tell me you never thought of this?

+

Victor Von Doom/Toby Stephens: Dunno if people have seen Black Sails, but while the whole cast is stellar, Stephens just... shines. He's a stage actor (only did Black Sails after seeing Six Feet Under) so he can bring the theatrical element Doom needs. Plus, his mother's Dame Maggie Smith, so there's your Cynthia in case they do a Doom solo.

On the off-chance they try and do the Ultimate F4, I'd go with:

1) Reed Richards: Matt Smith
2) Sue Storm: Ana De Armas
3) Johnny Storm: Ansel Egort
4) Ben Grimm: Sam Worthington
+
Victor Van Damme: Leonardo DiCaprio

My dream casting is Tom Hanks as Reed Richards.

Fan4 suck but here goes

1 Sue Storm by Paris Hilton, a kind of 'Madonna' personality but Madonna herself is too old and skanky

2 Johnny Storm Justin Bieber some Korean GanNam style dude or some stupid 'Rapper'...if Chris Evans can't save the character then better make a joke of it

3 Ben Grimm Kurt angle, doesn't need to be much of an actor, just look sad at the right time and say the Clobberin Time line

4 'Fantastic' Richards this role is important and its a difficult character to write otherwise he's a stupid Stretch Armstrong, maybe Johnny Depp or one of the evil genius illuminati guys in the Bond Dr. No characters or the British Drwho guy who played Purple man

and finally DO NOT introduce Doom until you have a good Fan4 film under their belts and a good Victor von Doom story wrote, maybe just drop the 'Doom' name altogether and focus on a guy Victor and his history with mechanics, gypsy arts, magic, science and focus on this fictional Eastern European nation, make him a ruler of Eastern European country of Sokovia?

Paris Hilton and Justin Bieber? WTF? LOL

As for who I'd cast, I'm not sure though I've never been a fan of Theron for whatever reason so I probably wouldn't cast her as Invisible Woman.

Anyhow, I'll try so here goes.

Invisible Woman - Elizabeth Harnois
Human Torch - Eric Szmanda
Thing - Mark Addy.
Mr Fantastic - Eddie Cahill
Dr Doom - Gary Sinise

Probably crap choices LOL but anyhow...

Th-this is a joke, right? I mean, come on. Heh.

They started the post by saying "Fan4 suck" so I wouldn't pay them any attention.

My dream casting is Tom Hanks as Reed Richards.

That would be really fun. Because of that image I'm imagining his son Colin as Reed.

Reed Richards - Colin Hanks
Sue Storm-Richards - Reese Witherspoon
Johnny Storm - Zac Efron or Dave Franco
Ben Grimm - Liev Schreiber

Dr. Doom - Christian Bale
Namor - Jon Hamm
Mole Man - Timothy Spall
Red Ghost - Ian McKellan
Galactus - Eric Roberts

Silver Surfer - Stephen Amell



Its Always Sunny casting lol:
Reed Richards - Glenn Howerton
Sue Storm - Kaitlin Olson
Johnny Storm - Charlie Day
Ben Grimm - Rob McElhenney

Mole Man - Danny Devito

[Crimz]

I honestly would love Danny Devito as Mole Man. It would be hilarious!

[Michael Watkins]

I honestly would love Danny Devito as Mole Man. It would be hilarious!

sure. it it were a Wayans brother style paradoy of the Fantastic Four movie. did you want the next FF comic be a joke book? I don't want to just be a naysayer. in the interest of fairness, my casting pick for Mole Man would be Timothy Spall. but I wouldn't even necessarily advocate using Mole Man.

[Iron Maiden]

I honestly would love Danny Devito as Mole Man. It would be hilarious!

I think he'd be perfect also. The character needs some pathos and he could do that very well.

I'm also starting to become attached to the idea of Christian Bale being Doom, but without the Batman voice Doom needs a good voice actor which is why I always liked Alan Rickman or Jeremy Irons for the voice. Rickman would have been the better of the two with his quirky dramatic pauses.

If Bale was ever cast as Dr Doom he'd have to have a line similar to that time he had the ''good for you'' rant that time.

The Fantastic Four:

Oscar Isaac as Reed Richards
Taylor Schilling as Susan Storm
Connor Jessup as Johnny Storm
Ron Perlman as Ben Grimm

(Directed by Matthew Vaughn)

[Green Goblin of Sector 2814]

Sue Storm-Richards - Reese Witherspoon

I don't think Reese would even want to be cast in a superhero movie. I've heard she's a very vocal critic against these kinds of films.

[Crimz]

With the deal going through and only waiting for overseas approval I decided to resurrect this thread.

My choices have slightly expanded:

Reed - Oscar Isaac, John Kransinkski, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Rahul Kohli (a member here had him as their choice and I think he's a great choice)

Sue - Alice Eve, Evan Rachel Wood, Lily James (someone convinced me of this actress on another site)

My choices for Ben and Johnny are still the same (Seth Rogen and Dacre Montgomery). They seem to be the hardest to cast, some actors would be perfect for Johnny but are too old. Johnny's actor should be around Tom Holland's age or at least pass for that age.
