In the latest episode of his famous podcast, Hot Mic, film critic Jeff Sneider broke the news that Stranger Things star Joseph Quinn is almost 80-90% confirmed to play the role of Johnny Storm in Marvel's upcoming Fantastic Four reboot. The news has received mixed reactions from the Marvel fandom so far.
Quinn became an overnight sensation with the release of Stranger Things season 4, and his career appears to be on an upward trajectory. Quinn's breakout role as the lovable screw-up Eddie Munson was one of the major highlights of season 4, with his performance being praised by fans all around the globe.
On his podcast, Sneider had first reported that The Boys actor Jack Quaid was being scouted for the role of Human Torch. However, Sneider later corrected the information and stated Joseph Quinn might be the one to lead the race to play Sue Storm's hot-headed brother.
Jack Quaid also put out a statement on Twitter, denying his involvement in the new Fantastic Four film. As always, no new official statement has been made by Marvel acknowledging these rumors. However, Sneider has stated that Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm is almost a done deal.
Sneider also claims that Mission Impossible and Fast & Furious actress Vanessa Kirby is over 95% confirmed to play the role of Sue Storm in the reboot. Attaching a name like Vanessa Kirby will attract a lot of attention, with her Oscar-nominated acting skills being a major plus for the film.
Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm and Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm are two casting choices that are all but confirmed, with the remaining cast for the film still wide open. There are rumors floating around of Moss-Bachrach and Matt Smith being eyed for the role of Reed Richards and Norin Radd, aka Silver Surfer, in the film.
Sneider has confirmed that Galactus will be the main villain of the Fantastic Four reboot and will likely be voiced by Anotonio Banderas. He was offered the role a few months ago, but an official confirmation is yet to be made by the actor.
There is a lot of buzz around the Fantastic Four reboot, with Marvel making some good casting choices. Fans are excited to see what the film's final cast will look like and which actors will make the cut. However, as of now, Joseph Quinn and Vanessa Kirby are the two almost confirmed choices for the film.
