The original big screen Fantastic Four movies from the early '00s aren't exactly dynamite, but they have a cult following to this day, with many fans citing members of the cast as particular highlights, including Michael Chiklis' take on Ben Grimm/The Thing. Now, with the release of The Fantastic Four: The First Steps just days away, the fondly remembered Ben Grimm actor has a message of support for the stars of the new movie.
"I want to thank everyone for all the Fantastic Four love this last couple of months during the run up to the new F4 flick," Chiklis says in a statement on his Facebook page, in a voice not unlike Ben Grimm himself. "Speaking of which, I want to wish the cast and crew of First Steps the best of luck and success. I admire these actors and look forward to seeing them take on these iconic roles."
