The churning of the rumor mill can finally die down - Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach are set to headline Marvel Studios' highly anticipated Fantastic Four movie, as per a long-awaited official announcement.
After months of speculation on the casting for the new Fantastic Four movie, the big reveal finally came through a Valentine's Day-themed artwork posted on social media platforms such as the official Marvel Studios X (formerly Twitter) account, depicting the chosen actors in their respective superhero roles.
The art depicts Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as Susan Storm/Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm/The Thing.
Crafted by artist Wesley Burt, the artwork and the accompanying Marvel Studios and Fantastic Four logos evoke the style of the 1960s, hinting at a possible period setting for the film, although official plot details are yet to be revealed. Even H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot is included in the teaser, a throwback to the 1978 Fantastic Four animated series.
