I love Jason Segel as an actor but not for the Thing. If he’s cast as Ben then I have lost all hope for the movie taking itself even slightly seriously. Gonna full on just be a “comedy.”

A Fantastic Four movie could be the moment where the MCU reestablishes itself and what they’re trying to do overall. Leaning less into comedy and more into sci-fi would be smart.

You don't have to sacrifice one for the other. Especially for the 4, who trend closer to more light hearted than many Marvel characters

Essentially it’s draft day for the actors

This sounds like a joke, but this is really what it is. It’s where mid tier or less known good actors go an announce they making it to the league. They get the marvel jersey and everything.

I still remember Chadwick’s chaining day :mjcry:
