The FANTASTIC FOUR Cast Want To See 'Namor' and 'Silver Surfer' In Sequel

At a press junket in Atlanta, the cast of Josh Trank's Fantastic Four were asked what they'd like to see in the planned 2017 sequel, with Jamie Bell (who portrays the Thing in the film) offering his thoughts first up. "I'd like to see more of how the characters interact with each other famously from the comic," he explained. "It would be appealing to me. This one very much is to get them to that point, to take them from people you don't know, to transition into characters you can recognize. The job of the next film is taking it further and having the characters already established, seeing them interact in the very famous kind of way. Things between me and Johnny get very antagonistic. More of a blossoming love story between Reed and Sue. More of a family dynamic. Stuff like that would be great. There's a wealth of material and with a 90 minute run time of an origin story it's very difficult to fit it all in."

Dr. Doom serves as the antagonist for the freshly-faced team in this year's reboot, and with the Fantastic Four comics housing a wealth of villains, the cast turned their thoughts to the characters they'd like to face off against next. "You can't get away from Silver Surfer," Bell said. "I know chronologically speaking that was the next villain in the previous franchise but I think Silver Surfer is cool looking." The character previously appeared in 2007's Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, which didn't exactly wow audiences or critics, so whether Fox would be willing to take another stab at him is up in the air. Still, with the version of Galactus in that film being a stickler for fans, perhaps they may adapt the two once again...

Michael B. Jordan, who plays Human Torch, added a suggestion of his own: Namor. "Namor is a cool one," he said, adding he is, "by far, he's the strongest mutant. You know what I'm saying? Maybe not by far, but he's the strongest mutant. It would be a pretty interesting battle, the Fantastic Four vs. Namor." Considering Namor's rights are currently with Universal Studios, it's not likely we'll see him go head-to-head with the FF anytime soon, though it'd certainly be something fans would be happy to see. Who, or what, would you like to see in the Fantastic Four sequel?
