In this case, the goal is to restart the characters in order to integrate them into Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Characters: Peter Pascal (Last of us, Game of Thrones, Mandalorian) as Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby (The task is impossible, Hobbs and Shaw) as Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman, Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Bear, Andor) as Ben Grimm/The Thing and Joseph Quinn (Stranger Things) as Johnny Storm/Human Torch. Many of these actors have been rumored to be in the film for months now. Especially Pascal and Kirby.
Along with the expected spread Fantastic FourMarvel Studios has announced the film’s final release date: July 25, 2025. This will be the film that opens the sixth season of its cinematic universe.
Marvel used February 14th to reveal the names of four actors after SAG-AFTRA leaked, apparently accidentally, Pedro Pascal’s involvement in a “new Marvel project.” Distribution Fantastic Four has been the subject of hundreds of rumors, with various names mentioned over the past four years. Adam Driver, Margot Robbie, Paul Mescal, Daveed Diggs, Emily Blunt and John Krasinski were among the most talked about before today’s official reveal.
The latter eventually played Reed Richards in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, as an alternative version of the character. He was chosen in part because of rumors circulating on the Internet.

The hard way to Fantastic Four in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
Fantastic Four went through a rather difficult path during preparation for production and final integration into Marvel Cinematic Universe. This is one of the intellectual properties owned by Fox that will finally be able to be used after the purchase of the studio by Disney, which also owns Marvel Studios. We have a huge challenge ahead of us to surpass previous attempts to bring these characters to the big screen.
But in addition to this, the film faced delays and problems due to the departure of the original director and writers. After the success of the project Spider-Man Trilogy in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the studio hired Jon Watts for this project. But after a few months he gave it up. The same thing happened with Jeff Kaplan and Jan Springer, who left the film due to creative differences with the studio. They were replaced by Josh Friedman, who has more sci-fi experience and will presumably find the tone Marvel is looking for.
In addition to the change of directors and screenwriters, Fantastic Four He also had to endure the Hollywood strikes and the creative crisis that Marvel Studios and its cinematic universe were experiencing. As one of the most important franchises with some of the most recognizable characters in comics, the studio can do no wrong and should be a complete box office success.

A sequel followed two years later, released in 2007, which brought back the entire cast and director, but was less successful at the box office. Fox then attempted to reboot the franchise in 2015 with Josh Trank as director, but it was a major failure. In fact, this meant a loss of about $100 million for the studio.
