MCU Fantastic Four!

[Black Cat]

lol most of them are wrong for these roles. I'm not impressed with the cast at all.

The Valentine's Day promo art shows HERBIE in the bottom left corner next to Ben. If HERBIE?s in the film I may be at a loss for words.

Agreed on each point...

In comics, Reed has traditionally been quite older than Sue, though. About ten years or more, depending on the sources.

Edit: here's a link to John Byrne's forum where the issue is discussed.

I don't love the casting choices. It's not really how I envision the characters but hoping they will change my mind.

I guess with the Mandalorian movie we won't even really see him so voice role.

Joel is a show, and his role will be limited.

Jaime? The golden haired lion? I disagree, playing a Martell of Dorne fit him perfectly.

Really to me, this is his lone major movie role after having some hit television ones.

She was great in the last Mission Impossible movie too.

Understood. I guess Pedro is around 13 years older. than Kirby Still, I want to grow with a character and if they do another movie in a few years, Pedro will already be in his 50's. Someone around 38-40 would have just worked better for the series moving forward. Oh well. Another questionable decision by Feige and company. Hope it works out better than the last 3-4 years.

Don't get your hopes up fellas. I hope this does well. It will be a nice warm up for X-Men.

I smell a bait and switch coming.
