Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone for Reed and Sue. They were both the best part of the ASM movies and they have undeniable chemistry so I say give em another shot at a franchise

Who knows if we get a DP3 now. X-Force is in development, but that was supposed to happen before any Deadpool sequel and now the Disney merger is official.
I think also RR himself also doesn't want to do another if he can't find a good story for it.

What they should do is have him direct these movies. Give him the control he had over Man of Tai Chi but with a billion dollar budget.

It’s too bad the Iron Fist well is thoroughly poisoned, because a Keanu-directed Iron Fist movie would be fantastic.

Their heroes so far have generally been pretty low on the recognizability scale so I doubt it.

She might be a villain tho, they spend the big bucks on those.

That's not really true. Maybe 3 or 4 of the MCU main characters weren't household names when cast (and 2 of them are Guardians.)

I think Marvel has shown that they'll cast who they think is the best person for the role regardless of if they're well-known or not.

I think it is more difficult for them to get really big stars just because they usually have deals to show up in like 6-7 movies. So getting the bigger names or really serious actors for a villain is easier since they'll likely be in just one or two movies.

He wasn’t great in Doctor Strange but he was fantastic in his bit in Thor Ragnarok and in Infinity War. I think the real problem he had was with the material, not with his abilities or suitability for the role.

Saw the Teen Titans movie, it was pretty good! I loved Robin’s ongoing, Trumpian obsession with the size of his hands. I was really sad that this movie wrapped up production too late to throw any shade at the Titans trailer, but announcing that they’re apparently bringing back the original cartoon is about the most savage blow they could have delivered, so it kind of balances out.

All I'm hearing is more reasons to cast Matt Smith.

I haven't read FF, but my general impression is that Reed is at best a bit of an unlikeable dick, and at worst a full on Supervillain.

Well, of course I know him.

I wouldn’t say Reed is an rear end in a top hat, more like the walking personification of benevolent hubris with a laser focus on science and precisely zero time for his wife, kids, and friends. He’s the kind of guy who would idolize and emulate Spock without realizing why that would alienate his family.

The baby hands gag isn’t actually a Trump joke, the other Titans saw Robin’s tiny baby hands for the first time back in a season two episode from 2012 and they haven’t let it go since.

After seeing Columbus, I think John Cho would be a really good Reed. I think he has a the right profile for the character, and really could invest in making Reed a flawed human being. He also has the comedy chops to make a Reed/Ben relationship actually feel like a real friendship.

Janelle Monae is definitely an X-man, dude. I mean the obvious move is for her to be Storm or Dazzler, but really she should be Xavier.

I went to a Janelle Monae concert last night, after being a fan for almost a decade, and she slayed. Incredible live performer with ridiculous talent and energy. It was one of those rare concerts where you could feel the love, positivity, and inclusivity radiating from all corners, from the stage to the audience to the venue staff. I'm so happy her career is FINALLY blowing up. I think she's a future EGOT winner, and from all accounts, she's a ridiculously nice person on top of being one of those rare "multi-hyphenate" talents.

I was a little sad she didn't get cast as Shuri, but Leticia Wright ended up being my favorite part of Black Panther. Janelle Monae is practically a superhero already, so I'd love to see her in a good role in some kind of superheroey project.
