After a final rewrite to the script and a long casting process, Fox looks to have assembled the team for its “Fantastic Four” reboot.
Miles Teller, Kate Mara and Jamie Bell will join Michael B. Jordan in the latest installment in the comicbook franchise.
Mara recently closed a deal to play play Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman. While no offer is out yet, Bell is expected to be tapped to play Ben Grimm/The Thing. Teller has an offer to play Reid Richards/Mr. Fantastic, but deal points are a little further away from being completed.
Teller and Mara have been on Fox’s radar since they were expected to test in November — events that were pushed when Simon Kinberg came on for the last polish on the script.
Bell came into the mix after Fox resumed screen tests.
Jordan has been attached for some time to play Johnny Storm/The Human Torch.
Based on the comic “The Ultimate Fantastic Four,” the contemporary update will focus on the characters as young men and women. Josh Trank will helm the pic with Kinberg, Matthew Vaughn and Gregory Goodman serving as producers.
With its four leads on board, Fox will now try to find its villain and hopes to test a handful of actors in the coming weeks.
“The Fantastic Four” is slated to bow June 19, 2015.
its easier for them to carry on a longer series when they have younger actors to work with. they kinda found out the hard way when tobey maguire was already balding after 'spiderman 2'. it's gonna be tough to keep guys like mark ruffalo and robert downey jr in superhero shape as both approach 50. besides, if you read 'ultimate fantastic four' comics (which i feel are the best incarnation of the characters) it totally makes sense for them to be really young because they're classmates of richards and he's a doogie howser-style prodigy that's been sending objects into other dimensions since he was a child.
Comments
Season 1 when he's explaining why he doesn't wanna do chemo, the ending of crawl space, and his phone call to skylar after being exposed.
I think both Aaron Paul and Anna Gunn did better jobs with consistently amazing moments throughout the series.
