As a result of the accident, Reed gained elasticity, Sue the ability to become invisible and manipulate force fields, Johnny could control fire and fly, and Ben became a rock monster.

However, the Fantastic Four’s origin story is so well known to fans that Marvel may prefer to take the already established team and pit it directly against a supervillain.

‘Fantastic Four’: Cast

Nothing is known about the new actors of the Fantastic Four, although it seems ruled out that any of the actors from the 2005 films, and its sequel, or the infamous 2015 reboot will reappear in the main roles. From here, the casting of the film is a great unknown.

The fans are asking for John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, the leading couple of ‘A Quiet Place’, play Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Woman, respectively. Marvel agreed and Krasinski was one of the confirmed cameos for ‘Doctor Strange 2’, but Blunt admitted that they were nothing more than well wishes from the fans. On the other hand, other rumors say that Jennifer Lawrence could join ‘Fantastic Four’. In the end, who knows.

Of all the speculations, the one that seems most plausible is the appearance of Jonathan Majors like Kang the Conqueror. Majors has already played an alternate version of the character in ‘Loki’ and will be officially introduced in ‘Ant-Man 3’ so he could become the next Thanos. His character Kang in the comics has battled the Fantastic Four and the Avengers on numerous occasions.

It was about Jon Watts, the director of all the Spider-Man movies within the UCM who has become famous for knowing how to combine the teen comedy linked to Peter Parker with the superhero movies of his alter ego, but in April 2022 we knew the news that Watts was stepping down from the movie to take a breather after the three spider movies.

The D23 Expo 2022 has allowed us to know the name of the director that will have the difficult task of relaunching what is known as “the first family” Marvelita: it is about television Matt Shakman (‘The Good Wife’, ‘Game of Thrones’). Attention, because Shakman is not unaware of the UCM, since he was in charge of directing all the episodes of the “brilliant”, “delusional” and “rare” ‘Scarlet Witch and Vision’, one of the best Marvel series on Disney + , if not the best.

As for the writers, it is said that Marvel could entrust the story to Michael McCullers and Shane McGoey. The first of them has become famous for the scripts of ‘Austin Powers’ and ‘The Boss Baby’, for which he could lead the film towards parody and comedy.
