Have you heard of the rumors that have been swirling for months now that Disney has been practically begging Adam Driver to play Reed Richards in Fantastic 4 and he's repeatedly have told them flat out no? They at least acknowledge that he's a money maker if it's true and will eventually give up. But they'll be back after repeatedly being upstaged by Reylo authors within the next few years and will probably offer full college funds for his kids plus $20 million in exchange for starring in a sequel to the 1998 version of The Parent Trap with Daisy Ridley as Annie/Hallie or some shit.
I kept hearing that they were 'in talks' with him or he was all but cast etc. and never bought it. I see no reason to believe he'd agree to sign on for that given what he's doing right now and what he's said before about corporate movie products.
It'd be a terrible career move for him at the moment and he doesn't need the money. Maybe if/when he wants to get into producing or to help a director he wants to work with, they'll get him in some MCU dreck, but I doubt he ever considered saying yes to this.
#maybe Disney was trying to manifest it by putting out rumours lmao#there is much stink of suck all over the Fantastic Four film adaptations they are somewhat notorious#and Marvel is the drizzling shits when it comes to consistent character work#if they asked someone who just had the rug pulled on all promises regarding his last very reluctant blockbuster franchise turn to sign on#to some 5 movies and a video game contract#I feel like his agent probably wanted to laugh#everyone has to play nice with the monopoly these days but if he was sincere in what he said about taking the part in sw#yeah no#he wants nothing to do with this#I can only imagine how thematically incomprehensible a late stage MCU F4 movie is going to be#Reed Richards was profoundly boring in the previous versions as well
