Marvel Announced Its MCU Fantastic Four Cast & Twitter Isn't Holding Back

It’s difficult to make everyone happy but it’s impossible to deny the diverse and sensational cast that Marvel Studios has assembled for “Fantastic Four.” With Pedro Pascal as Mr. Fantastic, Marvel has an A-list star to lead the franchise. But some fans are genuinely upset by the news of Pascal stepping into the shoes of the stretchy character. “Pedro as Reed Richards is horrible casting. Everyone is great but him lol,” shared X user @Facelessart305. 

For many, Pascal’s casting in a Marvel blockbuster is an example of his over-saturation in recent years, with @MisterMiracle14 writing, “[Pascal is] In literally everything and it’s getting annoying. He’s not a box office draw but social media loves him.” Others just think Pascal doesn’t reflect the stubbornness and nerdiness that Richards is known for. “Gonna be that guy and say casting the at this point very typecasted Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, a man so bad at being a dad that his children regularly run away and stay at Uncle Doom’s house, feels like missing the point a bit,” shared @TravisHymas. 

Another huge question mark for fans is Joseph Quinn’s casting as the badass, but reckless Johnny Storm. Quinn rose to prominence after appearing on “Stranger Things 4” and quickly became a popular fan cast for the Human Torch, but some think he won’t deliver the goods. “[T]his is the worst news ever,” wrote @oceansjonas on Quinn’s casting. “[J]oseph Quinn? thank god I stopped watching the mcu,” shared @JAMESJOlNTT.
