20th Century Fox and director Josh Trank surprised a lot of people with their bold casting choices. Invisible Woman/Sue Storm will be played by
House of Cards actress Kate Mara.
Chronicle actor Michael B. Jordan is Johnny Storm/The Human Torch. The kid who couldn't stop dancing in
Billy Elliot, Jamie Bell, is Ben Grimm/The Thing, and
Whiplash actor Miles Teller is Reed Richards a.k.a. Mr. Fantastic. While the memories of Jessica Alba, Chris Evans, Michael Chiklis and Ioan Gruffudd from Tim Story's mediocre
Fantastic Four franchise are still fresh in our minds it will be interesting to see Trank's take on these beloved Marvel characters.
Producer Matthew Vaughn weighs in:
"Its a total reboot, that's for sure. It's got nothing to do with the other bloody ones. It's not stretchy guy and a guy running around in rock that looks like it's made polystyrene. And its not a comedy."
