Marvel Sets Cast for ‘The Fantastic Four’

Marvel’s First Family is here… upcoming reboot to star Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards (aka Mister Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby as Susan Storm (aka The Invisible Woman), Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm (aka The Thing), and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm (aka The Human Torch); the film flies into theaters July 25, 2025.

What a Valentine’s Day reveal! Marvel Studios took to X on the most romantic day of the year to finally unveil the cast of its upcoming The Fantastic Four reboot:

Pedro Pascal (The Mandalorian, Game of Thrones) will play the brilliant and elastic Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic); Vanessa Kirby (Napoleon, The Crown), the powerful Susan Storm (The Invisible Woman); Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear, The Punisher), the clobberin’ Ben Grimm (The Thing); and Joseph Quinn (Stranger Things), the charismatic hot head Johnny Storm (The Human Torch).

Matt Shakman (WandaVision) directs from a script by Josh Friedman, Jeff Kaplan, and Ian Springer. While the plot of the film remains cloudy, the teaser image does hint at a mid-century setting. In the comics, Marvel’s First Family are astronauts who gain their otherworldly powers from cosmic rays in space. Can you say 1969?

Shakman produces alongside Kevin Feige. No word yet on the ‘fantastic’ VFX.

Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four flies into theaters on July 25, 2025.
