So far, numerous names have been thrown into thecasting hat to play Susan Stormaka Invisible Woman. Furthermore,Matt Smith has also been one of the potential namesto play Reed Richards.

Obviously, it must be stated that this is a mere rumour and we should take it with a pinch of salt until proven otherwise. Especially when you consider many names have been mentioned to take up the leading roles inFantastic Four. It’s believed that Pascal will land the role if the filming schedule works around his currentThe Last of UsandGladiator 2commitments.

Currently,Fantastic Fourwill join Phase Six of the MCU when it releases on 14 February 2025, assuming it suffers no delays between now and then.
