The Marvel Cinematic Universe is going through a massive revamp. The studio is taking every possible step to ensure there is newness in every project going ahead. Shang-Chi and Eternals warm reception definitely turned out to be the motivation. Amid all this, the studio has also planned to bring one of Marvel’s oldest families back to the movies with their Fantastic Four reboot. And the buzz now is that John Krasinski is already playing Reed Richards but not in the reboot. There’s a twist.
The studio is vouching a lot on the fandoms going ahead. Many casting copes have been labelled fan service. Over years, fans have been requesting the studio to cast John Krasinski as Reed and give him the role he deserves. If the latest update is to go by, he might have finally been cast as the F4 character but will first feature in Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness.

The truth is that it seems like a good option, but it is too tall, John Krasinski is 1.90, he is almost the height of the Kingpin, it may be a problem as he is too tall for the other heroes and Avengers. Is it a problem or do I shut my fuc###g mouth?

John Krasinski’s cameo wasn’t originally planned & was added in the reshoots. The main reason why this movie went into reshoots was because they were able to get the cameos they wanted on board. pic.twitter.com/twHOtbeljd
