Maybe Gunn will give us Crisis on Infinite Earths but less CW-y this time.
They ain’t doing Kingdom Come.
I would bet money that pic was chosen entirely because it features DC characters and fits the description of the post he made lol.
It's just going to be a new tweet about how this is the biggest story ever for the next two years until a movie actually comes out.Gunn's tweets are slowly entering The Rock territory where I feel inconvenienced by seeing them

Nah. While I could see her as Sue, there is nothing Reed about him.Once upon a time, Scully and Mulder would’ve made the perfect Sue and Reed.

DD technobabble isn't convincing as "super smart" but more as making seem manic, because he looks and sounds like a stoner. Which is perfect for the "true believer" in the X-Files partnership, who's suppose to come off a little "out there" and "crazy". That's not Reed. Reed's the smartest man in the room, who doesn't make a big deal about it. He's super enthusiastic about problem solving. They'd basically need to come off super smart, while being good natured and hyper active about it. So instead of a DD, it's someone more like Mark Ruffalo. Who is basically playing Reed as Banner.I don't know man. Add the technobabble to Mulder's forward thinking (and take away his porn addiction) and I think he could've been a decent Reed.
By the way, that's what gets me about Reed fancasting, like Jim. He's suppose to come off like a super smart dude, not just a lovable guy. I honestly can't think of a lot of actors under 40 who could pull it off (LaKeith Stanfield, Elliot Page, and John David Washington are all I really got), which is why I'm all for the gender switch, and give it to some like Saoirse Ronan, Emily Blunt (much better for the role then her husband), and Georgina Campbell.
I do not dislike the Jason Ritter choice.I always thought Stanfield was a solid choice, although he's one of those "gets fancast for everything" type actors right now
Idk, trying to think and I'm coming up blank too
What about maybe Jason Ritter? He was good (although a creep) in Raising Dion, where he played a scientist pretty effectively
If we're race swapping, I can see Jessica Henwick play Sue Storm.

Not sure what you're gettin at thereGiven the backlash that MBJ got for human Torch I dunno. I'm not against your suggestions but you know we live in a SJW world.
