12 British Actors We'd Love to See In Marvel Movies (And Who They Could Play)

10. Andrew Lincoln (Reed Richards)

lincolnrichards Following the disappointment of the previous two Fantastic Four movies, it's no surprise that the franchise has been scrapped in favour of a 2015 reboot. Another Brit - Welshman Ioan Gruffudd - had previously played the group's leader, Reed Richards, but obviously won't be returning in the role. This is where The Walking Dead's Andrew Lincoln could come in. Lincoln bears a resemblance to what comic fans have come to know as Richards' classic appearance as has a proven ability to take on a lead role as a wise leader, having portrayed Rick Grimes in The Walking Dead, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch for him to take on the role of Richards. If Fox haven't already started looking for a new Richards, they could do a lot worse than Andrew Lincoln.
