There are obviously a wide variety of Marvel Cinematic Universe projects currently in development. This includes a slew of sequels, reboots, and original films. But one of the most interesting projects is their upcoming Fantastic Four movie. The film will be one of the first results of Disney’s acquisition of Fox – which previously owned the brand alongside the rights to X-Men. While their take on the characters is still currently unknown, that’s part of why so many fans are excited to learn what Disney could have up their sleeves concerning the Fantastic Four. And now we may know the possible cast they have in mind for their Fantastic Four reboot.
This possible Fantastic Four cast leak comes via 4chan, where a user claimed to have worked on the upcoming film Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. He claimed that the Ant-Man sequel will include appearances from the new Fantastic Four team, and continued to reveal who would allegedly be playing the characters.
Here’s what they had to say, and please note, this information should be taken with a grain of salt:
“Fantastic Four have been cast in the MCU.
Glenn Howerton – Reed Richards
Kristen Bell – Sue Storm
Chase Stokes – Johnny Storm
Seth Rogen – Ben Grimm”
The user further claimed that they have no information on anything pertaining to Doctor Doom, as they only worked on Ant-Man 3. As such, they claim to have no knowledge about the upcoming Fantastic Four film – only that these cast members, who are allegedly appearing in Ant-Man 3 first, will portray the team for the rest of their MCU appearances. Another leaker teased that we should be having an official announcement from Marvel soon, suggesting that the preceding leak doesn’t match up with their info, and teased that there could be both famous and unfamiliar cast members involved:
By "soon" I mean on MCU time, where everything is always well planned. Anyway, believe only the cast that will gets officially confirmed.

In the names I heard, there are famous names and unfamiliar names, but I can say that most of them are very talented. https://t.co/NRpXpdEIky

While this is all unconfirmed, it would make sense if Marvel would have already cast the iconic characters. And considering how they like to tease upcoming superheroes and projects in their movies, it would also make sense that they could appear in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Of course, we might just have to wait until the release of the film to know for sure.
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania will premiere on July 28, 2023.
