Actor Pedro Pascal, who portrays Star and Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic in a production, discussed the source of Mister Fantastic’s elastic abilities. This follows the exploration by The Fantastic Four: First Steps director Matt Shakman and Johnny Storm/The Human Torch actor Joseph Quinn on similar topics.
In an interview, Pascal mentioned that Reed’s character is primarily driven by intelligence rather than physical prowess. He hinted that the inspiration for this came from observing the cunning nature of an octopus, not in a direct sense, but subtly influencing his thoughts. This was one of the most significant character revelations he shared.
Earlier on, Pascal shared his thoughts, expressing that each new project he took on – such as Game of Thrones, Narcos on Netflix, Star Wars, and The Last of Us in video games – had been incredibly daunting. He admitted that he relied heavily on the people around him for support to help him navigate these intimidating experiences.
Returning to Shakman, Shakman explained that his work is heavily influenced by. He also mentioned that he draws inspiration from, stating it’s “predominantly about the space race and venturing beyond our world,” so “First Steps” is “partly inspired by that concept of exploration.
Speaking about the film “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” released in September 2024, Ben Grimm/The Thing actor expressed his admiration for his co-stars. He stated during that time, “They’re amazing. We’ve been putting in a lot of effort together. There’s such a strong bond between us, and even when I’m away for a while, I feel a bit of separation anxiety.” Interestingly, Bachrach had shared in June 2024 that he hadn’t watched the previous Fantastic Four movies before being cast. He explained, “I haven’t seen those films. When I got this role, it didn’t seem productive to watch them. People ask me about how this differs from the others, but I don’t think comparing it to something else is beneficial.
The Reboot Is All About the Characters
Furthermore, in a recent statement, Kevin Feige, President and Chief Creative Officer of Marvel Studios, emphasized that the focus is primarily on the characters. Earlier, there was talk about Julia Garner being cast, but it turned out to be false. Lately, Tom Hiddleston (Loki) and Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl) have been spotted together, sparking speculation.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps will be released in theaters on July 25.
