Original Mr. Fantastic in ‘Fantastic Four’ films wants a piece of the MCU action

20th Century Fox

If the Disney and 20^th Century Fox deal pushes through, this could mean Fantastic Four can join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And one of its original actors wants to make the leap. Ioan Gruffudd, who played Mr. Fantastic or Reed Richards in the first two Fantastic Four films, wants to be part of the MCU. "I would love that," Gruffudd told Digital Spy. "I just don't know, in that universe, the Marvel world, would they let me play something else? I'm so renowned for Fantastic Four. But a couple of actors have [made the leap]." He’s referring to both Chris Evans and Michael B Jordan, who both played Human Torch or Johnny Storm, and are now known as Captain America and Killmonger, respectively.

"I'm sure for Marvel it was a tough decision to pick Chris to play that part [Captain America] because he'd already played one superhero, but what a brilliant decision it was, because he's wonderful," Gruffudd said. "And Michael B Jordan has played Johnny Storm and he's amazing in Black Panther as well, so there are precedents set. So, we'll see." If he could play someone else, Gruffudd said he’d want to be a villain. "Maybe [I could play] a baddie, this time? Now that I've established myself as somebody who can do that, that would be great," he said.

Is this the title of ‘Avengers 4?’

Eagle-eyed fans discovered something over the weekend. They were checking out the resume page of Avengers 4 cinematographer Trent Opaloch and discovered he listed the second part of Avengers: Infinity War as Avengers: End Game. He has since updated this listing to Avengers 4 but it’s already gotten fans speculating. Some saying this refers to the scene in Infinity War where Doctor Strange has been looking for all the possible outcomes in the battle with Thanos to see if there was an ending where the Avengers win against him and he only finds one. He told Iron Man as he handed the Time Stone to Thanos that, “We’re in the end game now.” This possibly hints to that and that everything that’s happened is part of Doctors Strange’s plans.

But we won’t hold our breaths that this is right. As Comicbook.com has pointed out co-director Joe Russo has denied in an interview back in May that the film’s title would be based on a line of dialogue in Infinity War.

The Wasp was supposed to have debuted in ‘Captain America: Civil War’

While Ant-Man and the Wasp properly put Evangeline Lilly’s Hope Van Dyne/The Wasp as a central character in the film, her debut was supposed to have happened earlier, like Captain America: Civil War earlier. But Ant-Man and the Wasp director Peyton Reed explained to IGN why this didn’t happen, “There was a point, really early on, where was going to be introduced in Civil War. But there just simply wasn’t screen time to do justice to that character, so we’ve done it here.”

And Marvel seemed to be aware of how late the introduction of The Wasp has been and that it really was a long time coming. “This whole movie was about putting her at the forefront and was about making good on the promise of the end of the last film where she says, 'About damn time.'" Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige tells ComicBook.com. "And that whole movie was about the fact that clearly she was qualified to put on a suit and do what was right but she kept being prevented by her father, for reasons that were revealed in that film and reasons that have to do with her mother and now, of course, she becomes the key hero to attempt to rescue her mom and seeing that father-daughter relationship repaired in this movie was something that was great fun for us and to see here step in the forefront.” What do you think? Would you have wanted to see The Wasp earlier? Let us know your thoughts when you see the film. Ant-Man and the Wasp comes to theatres starting July 6.
