MCU Phase 5: Every Single Character Confirmed (So Far)
13. Johnny Storm/The Human Torch (TBC) - Fantastic Four
While we've had three goes at Fantastic Four movies (well, four if you count Rise Of The Silver Surfer, of course) and Marvel Comics quietly iced the team in the comics, the Fantastic Four remain the Marvel's first family. They also have way more potential to them than the four mostly unwatchable films have suggested - it's just a matter of capturing the right tone.
First off of the Four's roster is Johnny Storm - arguably the most important to cast, because he's a tricky character. Get the balance wrong between his bravado and likeability and you end up with an entitled douchebag. Get it right and you get Spider-Man again. Hopefully, Marvel just stick to the same lessons as Peter Parker mapped out and we get a good one.
Played by Zac Efron, preferably.
