14 DAY TRIAL // As any movie fan will tell you, the villain in every superhero movie is very important. Making the right choice when casting can literally make or break the entire movie. It's gotten to a point where the villain is often more important than the hero.
That's why Fox is taking so long to cast the main villain in its upcoming reboot of “The Fantastic Four.” Variety claims that they've got the list pretty much down to one guy, and that guy's name is Toby Kebbel, who has now entered official talks to play Dr. Doom, the antagonist of the Fantastic Four.
Among the other actors that have been or are still being considered for the role are Jack Huston, Sam Riley, Eddie Redmayne and Domhall Gleeson.
Casting for the new “Fantastic Four” has already sparked controversy when it announced the main roles going to Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Jamie Bell and Michael B. Jordan. All young and relatively unknown actors, they would have some pretty big shoes to fill and that's what worried fans.
Plus, there was that whole thing with Michael B. Jordan, and African American, being cast as The Human torch, a role that has usually been given to Caucasian actors. We'll have to wait and see how the writers will work that in the script.
