Marvel has finally confirmed who will be playing the Fantastic Four in new movie.
Marvel Studios also revealed a new release date for The Fantastic Four, writing that it will land in cinemas in July 2025, just two weeks after the upcoming DC movie Superman: Legacy.
The last Fantastic Four film was released in 2015 and starred Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan and Jamie Bell.
It was poorly received by critics and was a box-office flop, with its co-writer and director Josh Trank later disowning the superhero flick.
Before then, the superhero family were played in two movies by Ioan Gruffudd, Jessica Alba, Chris Evans and Michael Chiklis.
The upcoming big-screen take on the Fantastic Four is set to be directed by Matt Shakman, best known for helming all of the acclaimed Marvel TV series WandaVision.
The Fantastic Four will land in cinemas on 25 July 2025.
