Seems uninspiring.

[–] PaladinNJ (21784) a year ago

Also Release Date: July 25, 2025. That seems very aggressive schedule for what should be a special effects heavy movie.

Perfectly fine with that.

[–] jk90us (8286) a year ago

Wait. No black actors? And Ben Grimm isn’t gender-swapped? 😳

It’s still going to suck, especially if rumors of Sue being the lead character is true.

Reed plagiarised his way to his university degrees a la the former dean of Harvard.
Sue is has a penis but it's invisible.
Johnny is gay, but not regular gay, flamin' gay.
Thing is non-binary.

It's all good.

lol.

Unfortunately, this could easily be true in today's landscape.

Good luck with that future flop. Hope they will not spend 200 millions on making. Because they will never get them back

That's actually a much better than expected lineup. I've never heard of Kirby, but the other three are great.

[–] willjbeau (885) a year ago

Vanessa Kirby was on The Crown as Princess Margaret for its first two seasons. That's where I first noticed her. She's great. She's also been in the M:I movies since "Fallout", though I haven't seen those.

[–] HarlemEagle42 (18433) a year ago

Yeah, she's terrific. Great casting choice.

They're all Skrulls, that way if people don't like the movie they can bring the "real" ones out later.
