Barbie, Kylo Ren, and Sebastian To Become Marvel Superheroes, Says the Internet

The internet obsession with Marvel movies and their casting can weigh on a future film way before it’s even started production. Marvel Comics is near and dear to fans’ hearts, which is why they are so keen on seeing things done right. You may have heard rumblings that a new Fantastic Four movie is in the works, and the world may have just gotten a glimpse at the potential cast.

The Fantastic Four, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in 1961, includes leader Reed Richards who is Mr. Fantastic, his love interest Sue Storm – The Invisible Woman, her brother Johnny Storm AKA the Human Torch, and Ben Grimm also known as a The Thing. On a scientific space mission, they gain superhuman powers.
