In recent years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been expanding and is already confirming that in the future we will see a Fantastic Four movie, one of the most important superhero groups for Marvel. The film is expected to start production this year and rumors suggest that Adam Driver could be Reed Richards.
Last year we saw the premiere of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and the Sam Raimi movie gave us a little tour of other MCU universes, including one with the Fantastic Four already established. In the film Reed Richards was John Krasinski, but it seems that he will not be the mr fantastic main character of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
According to a rumor started by Jeff Sneider on the Podcast of The Hot Mic, Marvel Studios would have had a meeting with Adam Driver with the intention that he becomes the Reed Richards of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. According to Sneider, Adam Driver would also have been considered for the role of Doctor Doom.
It should be noted that Jeff Sneider clarifies that his information comes from a source that has not yet been proven, which means that said source has not hit on previous leaks to date. Still, it seems that Marvel Studios wants Adam Driver to be one of the main actors in the next Fantastic Four movie, either as Reed Richards or as Victor Von Doom.
At the moment, what is confirmed is that the Fantastic Four movie will be directed by Matt Shakman, known for his work at Wandavision. Also, Keff Kaplan is helming the script alongside Ian Springer, with a slated release in February 2023. It’s still over two years away from release, so honestly it’s best to forget about the movie until there’s at least one ready. trailer.
