After one great attempt and one not-so-great attempt, Marvel is giving a live-action Fantastic Four film another crack. Bless ’em for trying!
The long-running comic book series features four superheroes, Reed Richards / Mister Fantastic (played in the past by Ioan Gruffudd and Miles Teller), Sue Storm / the Invisible Woman (formerly played by Jessica Alba and Kate Mara), Johnny Storm / Human Torch (played by Chris Evans and Michael B. Jordan) and Ben Grim / the Thing (played by Michael Chiklis and Jamie Bell).
Following the announcement of the film, fans have been waiting with bated breath to see who will be cast in the forthcoming flick.
Here’s everything we know…
Who has been cast in Fantastic Four?
As was previously predicted by Hollywood tea-spiller Grace Randolph, Vanessa Kirby has been cast as the Invisible Woman.
Disney made the announcement today via Instagram in a Valentine’s Day post.
Have a peek below:
Kirby has a penchant for ‘yuge blockbuster franchises, having appeared on Mission Impossible and Fast & The Furious.
She also fits the bill, visually. She looks just like the comicbook character!
Starring alongside Kirby is the internet’s collective boyfriend Pedro Pascal as Mr Fantastic, The Bear’s Ebon Moss-Bachrach as The Thing and Stranger Things star Joseph Quinn as The Human Torch.
Pedro shared his own post to Instagram about the exciting announcement:
“From our family to yours,” he captioned the post, along with four blue hearts to represent the members of the team.
Sounds siiiiiiiick!
When is Fantastic Four being released?
Disney also unveiled the updated release date, which is now 25 July 2025. It was initially slated for release on 2 May 2025 but ya know, shit happens.
Flame on!
