Who I Would Love To See Play The New Fantastic Four (Second Choice)

About a year ago I posted up my choices of who I think should be the new "Fantastic Four". I had "GLEE" star, Matthew Morrison as Mr Fantastic, "Heroes" sar, Hayden Panettiere as The Invisible Woman, another "GLEE" star, Corey Monteith as The Human Torch, "The Wire" star, Domenick Lombardozzi as The Thing and "The Hangover" star, Bradley Cooper as Doctor Victor Von Doom.
Now I have my new team of actors who I think should play them. Here they are,

Zachary Quinto would be amazing as ReecRichards aka Mr Fantastic. He can can pull off the geeky look and also a very cool look, so he'd be perfect. I can just imagine this photo above with some grey lines in the side of his head, through his hair.

Elizabeth Banks is so hot and would be great for the role of Sue Storm aka The Invisible Woman. She might not be as hot as Jessica Alba for some people, but I like her and she can act her ass off.

Tom "BANE" Hardy as the one and only Ben Grimm aka The Thing. I know he's well younger than Michael Chiklis, but he's so muscular, if you've seen "Bronson" and his portrayal as the new Bane in this years Batman film sure shows us that to. Shave his head and he's done.

Liam Hemsworth, brother of Chris "THOR" Hemsworth, as Johnny Storm aka The Human Torch. I just think this guy would fit the role. He needs to be in a superhero film. He tried out for "THOR", but lost out to his older brother, so now he could really play a hero for this film.

I never changed my choice for the role of Dr Doom. I chose Bradley Cooper to play Doom in the fan-cast I done for "The Fantastic Four" last year and I still think he'd be EPIC for the role. He's cocky and smooth and just fits into this role brilliantly. When I began this redo of my fan-cast, I was going to pick him for the role of Mr Fantastic, but he couldn't pull of being a geek.

"Chronicle" Director Set For "Fantastic Four: Reborn" Film?

There are rumors that "Chronicle" director, Josh Trank is the front-runner for the "Fantastic Four: Reborn" directing job. It's been said that Fox are waiting to see how his new superpowers film, "Chronicle" does before making him the "FF" reboots official director.
I just watched the trailer for his new film the other day and I have to say that it looks amazing. It's like a cam-corder film, with found footage of these groups of teens who get superpowers and I think one turns evil, but I'm not sure until I see the it when it comes out in early February.

Kevin Pennington To Play The Human Torch?

Actor Kevin Pennington is in talks with Fox to playing Johnny Storm/The Human Torch in "Fantastic Four: Reborn". He is just one of the names on the choice list for the role by Fox. Another name tossed around is newcomer Cody Sousa. I wonder who will get it?

"True Blood" Star In Talks To Play Doom?

Fox have announced that they are in talks with "True Blood" star, Stephen Moyer about taking on the role of Dr Doom in the upcoming "Fantastic Four" reboot.
I personally think he would be a perfect choice for the role, even though I've never watched him in anything. It's just the look of him. He's got a very evil look to him.

John McClane To Turn Into Orange Stone?

According to Movieweb.com, Bruce Willis is in talks to voice The Thing in the new "Fantastic Four" reboot, "FF: Reborn". If Willis signs on to the role he will provide his voice and also appear in person briefly in the films opening credits. This would be pretty cool to see.
Fox are looking at various different directors to make this film happen. Rumors are saying that they have their eyes on "The A-Team" director, Joe Carnahan and "Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix" director, David Yates.
Willis is gonna be very fecking busy in the next few years, as he's working on "Die Hard: 24/7" for 2012, "Kane & Lynch: The Movie" for 2011, and he's possibly gonna be the main villain in "The Expenables II", which Stallone is aiming for a 2012 release. And Fox are aiming for a 2012 release date for the new "Fantastic Four" film. Busy guy!

"Fantastic Four: Reborn" Possible Casting Details

It seems as though this upcoming reboot is actually finally coming together, and so quickly. First, we have confirmation on the writers. Second, we have a proposed title. Third, we have confirmation on when Fox plans to begin filming. Fourth, we have confirmation on The Thing being 100% CGI and now we have possible casting for Mr. Fantastic and The Invisible Woman.For the role of Mr. Fantastic, the studio are looking at both Adrien Brody and Jonathon Rhys-Meyers. I can actually see Brody playing the role, but I really can't see Rhys-Meyers playing him. He looks too young for the role.And for the role of Sue Storm (The Invisible Woman), the studio are looking at both sexy Brit, Alice Eve and Amber Heard for the role. Out of the two of them, I'd probably go for Alice Eve more. She seems more like a mature woman than Amber Heard, who just looks like a little girl.

"Fantastic Four" Reboots Ben Grimm/Thing Is Gonna Be 100% CGI!

It's just been confirmed by Fox that "The Thing" in the upcoming reboot to the "Fantastic Four", titled, "Fantastic Four: Reborn" will be 100% CGI. I think that's the best thing to do for the character. They intend for this "Thing" to be more "HULK" than the last one, portrayed by Michael Chiklis. Bigger and, well more HULKish. AWESOME!
Fox also confirmed that a script is deffo in the works right as I do this post and that the film won't go into production until they begin filming on "X-Men: First Class" in September. So we can possibly see filming for the reboot begin near the end of this year anyway. They haven't told us when they plan to release the film, probably be more of a end of 2011, possibly pushing for Summer 2012 slot, next to "The Avengers", "BATMAN 3", "Star Trek II" and "Spider-Man Reboot". We'll see............

"Fantastic Four" Reboot Title?

The "Fantastic Four" reboot has also got it's new title. The new reboot film is titled, "Fantastic Four: Reborn". Now the title gives us an idea that the film will have completely nothing to do with the first two films with the cast above. I wonder if the new crew of the film will do the whole back story again, because we don't need it, because we know what happened to them.
