That’s bullshit! Big fan of his but Reed isn’t Chilean.

The hell is wrong with Disney? There have been four crappy FF films to date. Now they’re on their way to screwing up the fifth.

This will be Disney's Woke Version of The Fantastic Four and after The MARVELS, can they really afford to fuck up another movie??

reply

They don’t care anymore.

If that's the case, they should just release it straight to Disney+ for more subscribers??

Is he gonna shave? This dude always looks like a hobo. Good actor though, i'm a fan.

reply

I'm cool with that. But how big a role is the FF gonna play in the future? He's almost fifty.

reply

There are a lot of damn good white actors out there who actually look like Reed. Cast one of them.

This shoehorned diversity serves no purpose.

I'd prefer Henry Cavill, he respects original comic books and the fans.

It's only a fan rumor. Marvel/Disney hasn't said anything about it.

Love Pedro but I honestly wish he was being cast as Doctor Doom instead. One of my fave villains & I think he'd be fantastic in the role.

reply

Good call. I like him as Reed, but he's at his best behind a metal mask.
