Pedro Pascal is Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic

[Dark Raven]

Gordon-Levitt is the strongest choice on the list. Not necessarily the most suitable one for Reed if we count all actors out there, but still....
He's a name actor which is a good thing.
(Routh is more Supes)

Btw Tg11, weren't you the one who suggested Colin Ford for Storm?

Are we changing genders now for Storm?

I actually did

 

[Iceman]

Good for him, but I almost LOL'd looking at that picture.
I'm sure he could get buffed up with a Hollywood trainer though.

Yeah, Krasinski himself did.

Hahahahha, I was gonna write Johnny.
He's actually a Storm

 

[Airwings]

I have a new name for Reed that can be matched with Kaley Cuoco or Evan Rachel Wood as Susan.
And also Sawa/Cena for Ben

Kevin Zegers

It's a shame the dude is "Tom Cruise short".

But he's worn a CBM costume before, 16 years ago

I don't know who that is, but from the picture he looks more like a Johnny.

It was 16 years ago. Surely he looks different today.

 

[Spider-Fan83]

I remember/know of him {specifically from the movie that pictures from lol} but, haven't seen him in much of anything else in the 16 years since to really judge where he's at now as an actor

so, he wasn't on my radar

I'll propably scare the sh*t out of you when I reveal he was in this:

The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (2013) - IMDb

So Diego Luna is Mexican, Namor is Mexican, and they were talking about making Doctor Doom Spanish. That would make for an interesting triangle.

 

[Da-Scribe]

Spain does have a significant subgroup of Romani people.

Wonder if they could do some sort of thing where he is Romani with some Spaniard roots. A little extra thrown in but still maintaining their European heritage.

Though, considering the dearth of Hispanic representation in the MCU, I’m not sure how a lot of Hispanic people would feel about their first major, mainstream comic book film representation being a warlord and a dictator.

when I think of Doom I think Bad Ass MF not warlord dictator

New Reed Richards Actor Theory Is Better Than John Krasinski's Return

I don’t buy this, but what else do we have to talk a out?

 

[Fluedd]

How about this guy for playing Mr. Fantastic, he's got experience:
Come to think of it, shouldn't it be Dr. Fantastic?

I think he could play the role, but his appearance actually makes me kind of skeptical.

Despite all the theories, I can’t see them doing a FF trapped in the Microverse story.

… though maybe I’m overthinking it and they’ll do some TV hing with Reed on Earth - maybe even being a key in getting them out.

 

[Scarlet Spider]

 

[Spider-Fan]

I largely don't believe any of these people until we have the final info, lol. So we shall see who it ends up being

 

[NotNickFury]

He could be playing coy, but at the same time it's entirely possible his appearance as a variant Reed was just a one-off and not setting anything up for his potential F4 future.

 

[Dark Raven]

How about Christopher Russell for Reed?

He reminds me a bit of a young Anson Mount which would be exactly what would be ideal for Reed Richards. He's not that known at the moment but he'd be the right age (39) and has the classic look.

[Spider-Fan]

Grain of salt and all that jazz. But if true, I am gonna LOL so hard at certain "scoopers" about this one!
