A QUIET PLACE PART II Star Emily Blunt Says She's Already Played A Superhero: Mary Poppins

It really doesn't appear as if A Quiet Place Part II star Emily Blunt is interested in playing Fantastic Four's Sue Storm, especially as she's already taken on the role of a superhero: Mary Poppins?!

A Quiet Place Part II star Emily Blunt remains a fan-favourite choice to play Sue Storm in Marvel Studios' Fantastic Four reboot. Unfortunately, it's not a role the actress is particularly interested in, and she emphasised that point during a recent interview with CinePop

When it was mentioned that fans want to see play a superhero, Blunt was quick to dismiss the idea by pointing out that her roles in the horror sequel and Mary Poppins Returns are basically just that. "Really? This is my superhero. Mary Poppins is a superhero. I’ve done it."

The interviewer didn't stop there, though, and asked if there are any specific heroes or villains aside from the Invisible Woman Blunt would be interested in tackling. Again, she doesn't seem overly interested! 

"I don't know," the actress confessed. "I'm not well-versed enough on it. I'm going to let the fans cast it because I don't know much about it."

While there's still a slim chance that John Krasinski might consider suiting up as the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Mister Fantastic, chances are he won't be joined by his real-life wife as Sue Storm. Blunt came close to playing Black Widow once upon a time, but any interest she may have had in joining superhero franchise has clearly waned (and that's bad news for Fantastic Four fans).

@tylerzero - I came here just to see how fast this meme would be posted. If it's this fast then the meme will never die.

@TheMapleSyrup -
Yea, let's fan cast someone who has zero interest in working in the genre and has expressed constant disrespect towards these kinds of movies. Zero chance that either her or her husband wind up in the FF.

LOL some of you guys need to get it thru your heads not every actor y'all want in these roles likes the superhero genre like that. I for one wasn't one of these fanboys clamoring for her and her husband in the role(I do think he'd be nice as Reed but there are plethora of other options and I could honestly see him play other MCU roles). With that being said if she doesn't want the role I'd go after any of the following:Alice Eve ,Ana de Armas ,Eiza González ,Ruth Negga ,Nathalie Emmanuel https://liverampup.com/entertainment/nathalie-emmanuel-refuses-say-s-single-dating-says-having-boyfriend-hard.html ,or Tika Sumpter

Now can we put to rest the F4 fancast and fanart?

@manofillintent1 - Lol she said let the fans cast. Can you read?

@Lucias - He/she is clearly referring to fancasting her in the role. No need to be rude.

@manofillintent1 - To be fair he's not wrong. Why would they put it to rest, after she asked them to fancast? And nothing she said, implies she would not do it. Bit of a Mr Fantastic stretch.

@Lucias - How mature.

@Lucias - yeah but once sue storm is actually cast her fancast becomes a little redundant

MyGodItsRobert - 5/20/2021, 5:10 AM
@manofillintent1 - Yes like 90 percent of fancastings. And it becames redundent anyway.

I'm just gonna say what I've seen what has been said before on this site: Samara Weaving for Sue Storm (and Dev Patel as Reed Richards).

By this logic anyone with magic could be a superhero. Gandalf is a superhero! Harry Potter! Genie from Aladdin!
