Fans of Dylan O'Brien have been trying to usher him into the MCU for years. Like Keanu Reeves, it seems as though people are willing to see him play anyone in the franchise. At one point, he was even considered for Spiderman. But no character fits him better than Johnny Storm.

For Johnny, audiences need an actor who can be both believably dramatic but also cocky and sarcastic. O'Brien has both traits in spades, as evident by his often show stealing role in MTV's Teen Wolf. With the Human Torch, O'Brien would have to bring back a splice of Stiles Stilinski and dash of arrogance.

To top it off, because of Teen Wolf and the Maze Runner Trilogy - as well as his action hero turn in American Assassin - this young actor is more popular than ever and would help boost the performance of the film. And since he's no stranger to sticking with a role for a while, playing Johnny in numerous installments shouldn't be a massive problem.
