Actors Kate Mara and Jamie Bell, who starred in the 2015 Fantastic Four film, recently shared their thoughts on the forthcoming reboot of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movie set to release in 2025. While they expressed excitement for the new cast and film, they also reflected on their own experience with the previous installment.
Mara, 41, mentioned that they are looking forward to the new movie, highlighting the great cast involved. Bell, 38, humorously acknowledged that their previous film did not meet expectations, stating that it exists in a 'not very good canon.'
The new Fantastic Four film, scheduled for release in 2025, will feature Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby in leading roles, along with Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach completing the quartet. Ralph Inerson will portray the villain Galactus.
This upcoming release marks the third adaptation of the comic book series on the big screen. Chris Evans, who later became known for his role as Captain America in the MCU, previously starred in the 2005 and 2007 Fantastic Four films alongside Ioan Gruffudd, Jessica Alba, and Michael Chiklis.
During a recent interview, Moss-Bachrach shared that Pascal initiated a group chat to connect the core actors before production begins. Despite some confusion over phone numbers, the cast members have been actively engaging in the group chat, showing their enthusiasm for the project.
The new Fantastic Four film is set to premiere on July 25, 2025, offering fans a fresh take on the beloved comic book series.
