Marvel Studios has officially begun its preparations for the advent of the Multiverse Saga and one of the most awaited films of the new era is the arrival of the Fantastic Four. The superhero team, as has been declared by the studio, will debut as an already established group in the mainstream universe rather than delve into a saturated origin film. The roster for one of the most famous Marvel crew has similarly been a matter of widely contentious debate, with numerous fan castings and widespread speculations involved.

The past year, if at all any indication of the coming riotous event, has dictated the level of mass enthusiasm invested in the launch of the movie and its aftereffect in the MCU narrative. After a year of falling prey to the constantly spinning rumor mill, it now seems there has been yet another update about the top contenders of the Fantastic Four roster.

The Fantastic Four Casting Speculations Gather Steam
A source has recently declared that the formal casting of the Marvel group has led to two names being mentioned above all —Diego LunaandEiza González— for the roles of the two Fantastic Four members, Reed Richards and Sue Storm. While fan casting during the months prior to the release ofDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnesshad put forthThe OfficeactorJohn Krasinskias Mister Fantastic, the role was short-lived and exploited by the film’s no-strings-attached display of Marvel’s star-power and the studio’s infamous ability to draw in high profile cameos.
For the fandom, however, the announcements indicate some motion in the activity surrounding theFantastic Fourmovie, and that alone has become a cause for celebration.

This time, unlikeDoctor Strange 2, the casting stays awhile, and the actors pulled in for the roles will go on to become the first official face of Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Fantastic Four lineup. This will not only account for a binding contract with the studio but dictate the rest of the actors’ Hollywood careers, considering how Marvel has now stepped into the messy chaos of the multiverse and might call in the actors to step in at some point in the future, even when the Fantastic Four arc comes to an end.

The powers gained in the aftermath led to one of the best and the most compactly bonded family of superheroes.
Since the origin of the MCU in 2008, the fandom has waited in patience for this moment as the surrealistic event now becomes a cause for unanimous celebration within the Marvel universe.
