Summary

This new fan poster showcases Vanessa Kirby, Matt Smith, and Joseph Quinn as potential frontrunners for the lead roles in Marvel's Fantastic Four.

Casting for the film is currently underway, and although there have been rumors, Marvel Studios has not made any official announcements yet.

When it comes to casting for the role of The Thing, Marvel Studios is actively seeking a Jewish actor. Rumored contenders for the part include Daveed Diggs and Seth Rogen. Official casting updates may be delayed due to challenges affecting the entire industry.

Check out this stunning fan poster created by AGT Design, which features the frontrunners for the leading roles in Marvel's Fantastic Four. The poster settles the ongoing debate on who should star in the movie. Although Marvel Studios has not made any official announcements yet, multiple reports indicate that these are the actors that they are considering for the film.

The Fantastic Four poster by Marvel showcases Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, also known as the Invisible Woman, Matt Smith as Reed Richards, who takes on the role of Mister Fantastic, and Joseph Quinn portraying Johnny Storm, also called the Human Torch.

Which actor would be a suitable choice to portray The Thing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Fantastic Four?

In recent years, there have been various rumors about actors potentially joining the film. Adam Driver and Margot Robbie were once speculated to be in the running for Reed Richards and Sue Storm. Similarly, Paul Mescal and Austin Butler were among the actors considered for the role of Johnny Storm. However, casting Ben Grimm/The Thing has proven to be more challenging. As seen in the fan poster above, the creator decided not to depict any rumored actor for this character.

Fox has made two attempts in the past to acquire the Fantastic Four franchise. However, Michael Chiklis and Jamie Bell, who played The Thing, did not possess the characteristic of being Jewish, which is an important aspect of the character in Marvel Comics. There are reports suggesting that Marvel Studios is planning to address this by casting a Jewish actor for the role. Daveed Diggs, who is half-Jewish, is the leading candidate to portray the hero, aligning with the franchise's approach. Another actor, Seth Rogen, who is also Jewish, is rumored to be considered for the part.

At present, there is uncertainty regarding when Marvel Studios will officially announce the cast for Marvel's Fantastic Four. Due to the ongoing strikes by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), all work on upcoming MCU movies has been halted. Therefore, it is safe to assume that no statements will be made on the matter until the industry-wide issue is resolved.
