Cast the MCU X-Men/Fantastic Four

I really don't like Emily Blunt for Sue. She's too cold and the presence she gives off reminds me of Kate Winslet. I want an actress with a little bit more of a motherly warmth --Michelle Williams comes to mind.

Christopher Abbott for Wolverine. Short + cheaper and a much better actor than Harington.
 
He looks like he could be gruffed up into wolverine, still pretty boy looking though. I've never heard his voice so I wonder how that would work out.

Another good choice for Wolverine :up: But Kit is a good actor. I've seen him in a few movies outside of GOT

To me, he's not as handsome as Hugh. even then, a lot of artists draw Logan as ruggedly handsome. Even in certain Claremont runs like Byrne's (DOFP) Logan he's not ugly. Logan doesn't have to look like a homeless guy/hobo.

I want someone in vein of him, Joe Dempsie and Kit. Short, ruggedly handsome and young. (30-35)

I don't need a hobo looking like wolverine, just not a pretty boy.
 
I got Abbott on my Dick Grayson list. Not sure about him as Logan but I guess I’ve only seen him in one thing, so...
 
He'd have to lower his voice (assuming he can). Like Bernthal for the Punisher, although his voice has a lower register to begin with.
 
This is just a fun thing I came up with: If the MCU were to keep the current X-Men continuity from Dark Phoenix onward, who would I cast as older versions of those characters, considering those that played the older versions are older than the characters would be? So, I came up with a fancast of actors/actresses who I think could fill the roles of the original X-Men trilogy characters.

Ralph Fiennes as Professor Charles Xavier/Prof. X

I don't want to see a more human-looking Colossus again like in the Singer movies. They don't need to hire someone like Hammer for him. Just use the Colossus from Deadpool.

And Kay Panabaker has retired from acting.

Deadpool is over the top and Colossus isn't always metal.

I figured.
 
I like the idea of Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson switching their good guy - bad guys role as Professor X and Magento, respectfully.
 
Mr Fantastic - Jon Hamm

Invisible Woman - Alice Eve

The Thing - Joel Edgerton

Human Torch - Taron Egerton
 
Mr. Fantastic- Alexander Skarsgaard

The only one I’m not sure of is Skarsgard as Reed.
 
I like Jason Segel but I don't think he has that gruff sounding voice that Ben's Thing. Maybe whoever gets to play The Thing will have their voice distorted once he's in character.
 
Evan Rachel Wood as Sue I can sort of see. The rest of the choices baffle me, to be honest.
 
She's already in Doctor Strange. Too bad as she would've been a great choice

You know, that looks like it could also be a pretty decent Cyclops/Jean Grey/Beast/Iceman-combo.

interesting point... never really thought of the group dynamic of these teams being that similar that they could be interchangeable like that...

wonder if it works both ways...?

would say, the O5 cast I posted a while back be a better fit for F4?
my original 5 if they go with a 30 something cast...

Cyclops- Douglas Smith

been struggling to put together a decent F4 fan-cast, seeing this got me thinking maybe I already made a F4 cast, an it's my X-men cast I need to being rethinking...
