Chris Evans would be happy to put on "those blue f--ing tights" once again should Fantastic Four get the reboot, especially with a director like Chris Nolan on board.
Recently, while discussing his role in another comic book movie, the adaptation of Bryan Lee O'Malley's Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, actor Chris Evans was asked about the possibility of reprising the role of Johnny Storm/Human Torch if Fantastic Four were to be rebooted. Evans said:
"I guess it would depend. I mean I’m never against revisiting, well I guess I should say not yet, I’m never against revisiting genres or character types. If I played a doctor in one movie I wouldn’t be against playing a doctor again if the director was the right director. I think at the end of the day you’ve got to work with the directors. I do what I do because I like making good movies. It’s fun to act but if you just loved acting alone you could sit in your room and act. You could act in a vacuum. You want to make good products. You want to make good films. I love movies and good movies come from good directors and like I said since there isn’t this massive surplus of films out there, if a good director offers you a chance to make a good movie, you take it even if you say well I just played a character like that. Who cares? You’re a great director. Scott Pilgrim, I played characters similar to that guy but no f--ing way I’m going to say no to this guy. I’m doing your movie. So if Fantastic Four got rebooted and [The Dark Knight director] Christopher Nolan was going to direct it and said do you want to play Johnny Storm again, I’d be in those blue f--ing tights."
