Yeah man Torch is the exception but not really because people on fire is always an eye catcher. Maybe not with a giant 4 on their chest. But again that is 1 of the 4. Sideshow has done a good bit of Thing but the other 2 in those classic blue outfits would be a tough sell and most who would care without a big movie following would want the all 4 to bite on any 1 of them.

I think he?s a good choice to play Reed, we know he can do drama and action scenes?but it?s hard to picture the plasticity stuff working at this point unless they really go all out. I?m hopeful for the Thing actor pulling it off.

Unfortunately I think the FF have just missed the bus. Could have been excellent leading up to Infinity War but MCU 2.0 with Kang and all this other nonsense is not going to go any better than Secret Wars 2 or the real Infinity War/Crusade.
I know it was rights/licensing but the interest from the mainstream public has simply waned for comicdom as steep as the Fantastic Four. With post Covid theater attendance and streaming losing steam the days of Ant-man type stuff getting 2 movies have long since cooled.
They'll probably go for the easy idea with Silver Surfer and Galactus but man on the big screen there's a million ways that can go totally dork sideways.
Stuff this comicy needs the help of some sexy movie star personalty ensembles but most of those have left the MCU, none of this FF cast has it, and heck none of the characters really do either.
