6. Trevante Rhodes - Reed Richards

A left field pick this may be for Reed Richards, but over the last few years Trevante Rhodes has built a brilliant reputation as strong performer and dedicated artist. You need look no further than Best Picture winning Moonlight to see the true extent of his dramatic acting chops, and he's proved he can hold an action with The Predator and 12 Strong.

He's also a young actor, who could be a good fit for audiences who want to see the Fantastic Four in a new and better written light. Like the other young actors on this list, his appearance as Reed Richards could give the team the face lift needed to usher in a new wave of fans.

Rhodes has proven he had box office potential thanks to Netflix blockbuster Bird Box, too, and should he secure the role of Marvel stretchiest hero I believe he'd show fans quite quickly just how capable he is.
