Fans were fairly intrigued when reports about John Krasinski meeting with Marvel Studios about an "unknown project," especially since everyone has fancast Krasinski as Reed Richards, aka Mr. Fantastic in the Fantastic Four. In fact, fans like seeing Krasinski as Richards so much in their minds that the classic Marvel character started trending on Twitter. You've got to love how dedicated fans are with their fancasts and we hope Krasinski does a good job, assuming he's even auditioning for this role.
If you type "Reed Richards" on Twitter, you'll see a lot of fans with their opinions on how the actor would do as Mr. Fantastic, though there are those that aren't a fan of the move. Not because they don't like Krasinski but these fans want to see people of color in the role, which is pretty wild since most comic book readers complain when people of color play a white hero and now the roles have been reversed.
Whatever the case, there's one thing we can all agree on: an MCU Fantastic Four movie will be the best one, no doubt about it. Fox has given us three Fantastic Four movies (four if you count the one that never came out), two of which were mediocre while the 2015 reboot was just pure trash. Apologies to the 5 people who like that movie but it sucks and you should know that.
Marvel Studios has yet to comment on their supposed meeting with John Krasinski or if they will even make a Fantastic Four movie.
