IOAN GRUFFUDD is stunned by his new superhero status since working on MR FANTASTIC - as he is frequently mobbed by fans desperate to witness his superhuman powers.
The actor, who plays super-bendy Marvel comic icon REED RICHARDS in the
movie, admits taking the role has had its drawbacks.
Gruffudd says, "The fanatical ones are the ones who run up and go crazy.
"A lot of kids come up and try to pull my arms!"

Payne (The Simpsons) said that the second Fantastic Four adventure presents numerous opportunities, as so much of the first film was devoted to establishing the characters and introducing the Fantastic Four universe. Now, for example, there will be more time given over to developing Fantastic Four leader Reed Richards (Ioan Gruffudd), aka Mr. Fantastic. "I think people know the characters now," Payne said. "They know the tone a little bit better. Origin stories are always hard to get off the ground, and we're going to be up and running. I think the one thing I really want to do is make Reed Richards, that character, smarter and tougher. He's the leader. I think Ioan did a great job [in the first film], but I think he could have had more stuff to play as the leader. Reed Richards has his nerdy side, but he ultimately has to make some tough choices." The Fantastic Four sequel will begin production later this summer with an eye toward a June 15, 2007, release
