Twentieth Century Fox threw narrow-minded fanboys for a loop when they announced Michael B. Jordan had won the role of Johnny Storm, a character traditionally depicted as white in the Fantastic Four comics. But all those who bemoaned this break from expected typecasting have a new cause to tear at their hair. And it's one that's equally trivial to lament.
THR reports Reg E. Cathey is the latest actor to join the cast of The Fantastic Four. Best known for his recurring roles on The Wire and House of Cards, Cathey has signed on to play Dr. Storm, the father or Johnny (Michael B. Jordan) and Sue Storm (Kate Mara). For some this might spark speculation that in this version of Fantastic Four Sue is adopted, or maybe Sue and Johnny's mother is white. Frankly, in a world where people can change into an impregnable rock monsters, turn invisible, become living flame or stretch their bodies to impossible lengths, I think we can all accept a family that is interracial, or includes adopted children. Or whatever. Let's focus on what's important here: Fantastic Four is continuing to build a truly outstanding cast.
Considering it was less than a decade since the 2005 Fantastic Four hit, many have been scoffing at the idea of a reboot. But first off, so few people remember that last film that its Johnny Storm went on to become Captain America, and no one batted an eye. Secondly, Spider-Man got rebooted to The Amazing Spider-Man, and its sequel is currently doing just fine at the box office. So why wouldn’t Twentieth Century Fox give their Marvel property another go, especially in a climate where superhero movies seem destined to win, win, win?
