I recently has just finished rewatched the Fox's Fantastic 4 film. Although I haven't watched it since it was in theaters like 6 years ago,It was pretty decent. The only bad thing about the movie is the lack of what happens to quickly and some of the casting. So here I am rethinking my own version of how my film should be. This is only the cast for the main cast,I'll upload some of the other cast later and also some of the plot outlines.
Matthew Morrison as Reed Richards/Mr.Fantastic
Character Description: "Richards is the leader of the team possesses a mastery of mechanical, aerospace and electrical engineering, chemistry, all levels of physics, and human and alien biology. According to BusinessWeek, Mr. Fantastic is listed as one of the top ten most intelligent fictional characters in American comics.[1] He is the inventor of the spacecraft which was bombarded by cosmic radiation on its maiden voyage, granting the Fantastic Four their powers. Richards gained the ability to stretch his body into any shape he desires."
Actor's Notable Appearances:
-Glee (TV series,as Will Schuester)
-Music and Lyrics (film)
Why?:I struggled with the choices of Adrian Brody and John Rhys Meyers but Although I thought that Ioan Gruffud was brilliant as Reed Richards,I think he didn't have the lack of confidence as in some of the comics has in the character. Which Morrison has always have in his acting for example in the musical drama tv series GLEE as Will Shuester,He also looks abit like Gruffud.
Alice Eve as Susan Storm/Invisible Woman
Character Description:"Like the other founding members of the Fantastic Four, Sue received her powers after being exposed to a cosmic storm. Her primary power deals with light waves, allowing her to render herself and others invisible. However, she can also project powerful fields of invisible psionic energy which she uses for a variety of offensive and defensive effects."
Actor's Notable Appearances:
-She's Out Of My League
-Sex and the city 2
-Men in Black III (Upcoming)
-The Raven (Upcoming)
-Star Trek XII Two (Upcoming)
Why?: As much as I thought that Jessica Alba's unperfect choice of casting as Sue Storm I wanted someone fresh. I choosed the British Actress Alice Eve because of her acting in most film reminds me of her. Oh,and guess what she can be ACT and she's naturally BLONDE. (HOT).
Dave Franco as Johnny Storm/Human Torch
Character Description:"The youngest of the group, he is brash and impetuous in comparison to his beautiful and compassionate sister, Susan Storm.Like the rest of the Fantastic Four, the Human Torch gained his powers on a spacecraft bombarded by cosmic rays. He can engulf his entire body in flames, is able to fly, can absorb fire harmlessly into his own body, and can control any nearby fire by sheer force of will. "Flame on!", which the Torch customarily shouts when activating his full-body flame effect, has become his catchphrase."
Actor's Notable Appearances:
-Scrubbs (TV series,as Cole Aaronson)
-Superbad (CAMEO #Greg)
-Milk (CAMEO)
-Charlie St.Cloud(Film)
-Greenberg(Film)
-Fright Night (the remake of Tom Holland's horror film Fright Night)
-21 Jump Street (Upcoming,Lead role alongside Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill,Adaption of an old TV series)
Why?:He's a very funny guy (he was a friend of a friend of mine)and he IS the youngest brother of the phenomenal actor James Franco.To be honest Chris Evan's portrayal of Johnny was perfect,just what the movie needed. But with both of the two film's unfinished script he failed to be one of the main appearance of the film.I wanted a younger and a more menacing Johnny,with some more sexual content and with some more jokes on. Dave has the looks and the charisma the only thing he only needs is to Bulk up a bit. I also thought that Ryan Kwanten and Kevin Pennington is also an pretty good casting but they're alittle but over aged.I had haley Joel Osment in my mind once but felt that he was too disney looking.
Keifer Sutherland or Bruce Willis as Ben Grimm/The Thing
Character Description:"As a result of a mutagenic effect due to exposure to cosmic radiation, the Thing possesses high levels of superhuman strength, stamina, and resistance to physical injury. His strength has continued to increase over the years due to a combination of further mutation and special exercise equipment designed for him by Reed Richards."
Actor's Notable Appearances:
-24 (TV series,Keifer Sutherland)
-The Lost Boys (film,Keifer Sutherland)
-Stand By Me (film,Keifer Sutherland)
-Disney's The Three Musketeers (film,Keifer Sutherland)
-Die Hard film series (Films series,Bruce Willis)
-Pulp Fiction (film,Bruce Willis)
-Sin City (film,Bruce Willis)
-Armageddon (film,Bruce Willis)
-The Sixth Sense (film,Bruce Willis)
Why?:I'm basically stucked with these two choice. The both two actors has something that really strucked me about Ben. Maybe because of their past films as a light hearted man or a man rough man with feelings. I also considered James Gandolfini once but maybe he would be too serious for a SUPERHERO movie.The connection between the acting and the character deep within Michael Chiklis is truly perfect.
Tom Hiddleston as Victor von Doom/Doctor Doom
Character Description:"Doctor Doom is a polymath scientific genius, depicted constructing numerous devices in order to defeat his foes or gain more power, including a time machine, a device to imbue people with superpowers, and numerous robots; Doom's calculating and strategic nature leads him to use "Doombots," exact mechanical replicas of the real Doctor Doom, for many missions, typically those where he fears defeat. Sometimes the Doombots even believe themselves to be Doctor Doom"
Actor's Notable Appearances:
-Thor (film,as Loki)
-Midnight In Paris (film)
-War Horse (upcoming,film)
-Marvel's The Avengers (upcoming,film)
Why?: This might be a odd but his portrayal of Loki really made me interested, think that he is a strong enough actor for the role. My second choice is Mark Strong and Christian Bale.
Director: JJ Abrams (known for his his films eg. Super 8 MI3 and Star Trek)
Like I have stated ubove I would be uploading some more plot outline for the movies later on.
Tell me what you guys think!
