Welcome back everyone, this will be my Marvel Fantastic Four video
for Adam Driver apparently he is going to be the new Reed Richards Mr Fantastic of the main
616 Marvel universe so we'll break it all down
if you're brand new to the channel be sure to subscribe to get all the videos Matt shackman
from wand division is making the Fantastic Four movie really excited to see what he does with
the project but it's going to be set in the main 616 universe so for instance the John Krasinski
read Richards Mr Fantastic in the 838 Universe in Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness was meant to
be a completely different version of the character it's so funny that Kevin cast John because the
fans had a dream of who the perfect rate Richards would be and because it's an alternate universe
I think Kevin said let's make that dream come true when they introduced that version of the
character he obviously said that he already was married to sue storm his invisible woman from
that universe and he already had his children Valeria Richards and Franklin Richards so there
already been a lot going on with the Fantastic Four in the timeline of that universe but the big
change that Marvel is making is that for the Fantastic Four movie they're introducing the
main version of the team from the main universe that all these movies have been taking place on
earliest the movies that haven't been Multiverse movies like Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness
there might be some Multiverse stuff happening during the movie because we are in the middle
of the Multiverse Saga obviously we're talking about the incursions king the conquer everything
that's happening leaning up to Avengers 5 King Dynasty and Secret Wars but this is them saying
that there's been a version of the Fantastic Four team in the main Marvel Universe this whole time
and they'll be explaining why we haven't seen them till now they've been a lot of theories about that
like have they not had the accident that turned them into mutates like the cosmic storm that gave
them their powers yet when they introduced stored during one division it seemed like The Logical way
for them to go because it was the beginning of Marvel phase four and we knew they were going
to do fantastic for is that they would say that the Fantastic Four characters were working for
sword and they were on a mission when they had the accident that gave them their powers the
cosmic storm but the interesting report is that now they're actually paying off a long-running
Easter egg that people had questions about during Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness there's a
scene during that movie when Doctor Strange is first meeting Mr Fantastic in the other
Illuminati characters and he makes a joke about them charting in the 60s Hello Steven Fantastic
Four didn't you guys chart in the 60s at the time people wondered if that was meant to be an Easter
egg for the group The Fantastic Four in the 1960s and the rumor is is they're actually going to use
that to say that that version in the main Marvel Universe like his own Universe was the actual
Fantastic Four that had been displaced in time like they got lost in the past and stuck there
for a while and through the course of their movie they'll find a way to come back to the
events of present day like they'll make it back to present day and that's why we haven't seen the
actual Fantastic Four characters until now like they'll actually just be from the past technically
and then come into the future obviously them casting Adam drivers Mr Fantastic is a bit of a
left turn I actually expected him to be cast for a character like Doctor Doom just because he's
so dark and broody most of the characters that he plays I feel like he'd be fantastic either way it
sounds like this version of Reed Richards they're casting him for Mr Fantastic will be a much more
hardcore darker version of Reed Richards there are reports that Marvel did approach him about
playing either Reed Richards or Doctor Doom and it sounds like he wanted to play Reed Richards
more than he wanted to play Doctor Doom maybe he wanted to avoid being Typecast you guys can let
me know what you think about the actual casting I mean he's a fantastic actor I'm just interested to
see what they do with this version of the actual group there have also been reports about casting
for Sue storm being pretty close to the Invisible Woman Mila Kunis was spotted recently having a
meeting with Matt shackman the director of the movie Allison Williams name was thrown around
and Jody cummer who I'd love to see play a more unhinged version of Sue storm if Adam Driver is
going to be doing a darker more intense version of Mr Fantastic no word yet on who would play Johnny
Storm or the thing Ben Grimm there were rumors that the thing was going to have a cameo scene
during She-Hulk and like one of those meta type of cameos but he'd still be a version of Ben Grim he
wouldn't have had his powers yet or it would have just been an Easter egg for his character they did
have that weird meta post-credits scene teaser with all the sneakers that featured Easter eggs
for like every single major comic book character that Marvel has ever done including all the X-Men
characters Fantastic Four all the way bigger versions of characters that Marvel hasn't done
yet are versions of characters that they're about to do like Deadpool in Deadpool 3 he was featured
in the scene but they've actually been setting up the Fantastic Four including Easter eggs for the
team for a long time since the very beginning of Marvel phase four even the end of Marvel phase 3
like Spider-Man far from home the next big Easter egg is the construction sign so when he swings
down you see the one two three in question mark instead of the four with the different
colors the text reads we can't wait to show you what comes next obviously that's a reference to
a bunch of different things in Marvel phase 4 is a reference to Marvel phase 4 itself like
we can't wait to show you all the new movies in Disney plus Avengers spin-off series that we're
doing right now but as you probably spotted the four numbers in the colors of the numbers also
correspond to the power sets of the Fantastic Four so the one is red represents Human Torch
the two yellow represents the thing three blue Mr Fantastic and the reason why you don't see the
four it's a question mark is because it's meant to represent the Invisible Woman it's invisible so
you can't see the four then the last little Easter egg here is when he swings down and they stand on
the street corner here at the intersection of East 41st and Library way that's actually near
Yancey Street in the comics where the comic book version of the Baxter building resides
there's also a really cool connection between what's going on with all the quantum energy
the portals that Mr Fantastic and Doctor Doom use in the MCU as well as king the conquer in the future
so like all these characters are connected but according to Sam Raimi the director in
the writer of the movie The really cool doctor Dooms scene happens when John krasinski's read
Richards of the a38 universe Fantastic Four enters the room for the first time and this
is the clip of them talking about that just doing commentary for the movie so really cool reveal if
you listen to the commentary Lynch was a pleasure to work with Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four
so was John hello Stephen teleportation device he uses to get into the scene is something we took
from the comics that's Dr tombs uh Doctor Doom's uh time door appreciate it I'm platform Stephen but
it's not the Scarlet Witch that we fear and while it is not Professor X's first time on
screen it is the first time we see that uh over chair from the Animated Series Pete Richards is
my favorite Marvel Comics character so it was a real honor to write his first entry I guess here
in the museum so there's a lot to unpack in that John Krasinski Fantastic Four stuff that Sam Raimi
and the writer are talking about but the really important part is all the stuff about Doctor Doom
they're confirming that read Richard's portal technology is the same technology that the TVA
is using allowing him to travel across time and space Not Just across space confirming that it's
based on their version of Doctor Doom's time travel platform which is a huge comic book deep cut that
also confirms that he's using Quantum energy to power it which was a big theory of ours like he'd
be using Quantum energy because the portal looked very similar to TBA portals it's just that it's
blue colored instead of orange colored and we know all of Kang or he who remains time travel
platforms the TVA portals that they use and Iron Man's time travel platform during Avengers end
game is also powered by Quantum energy and if you didn't realize too Iron Man's time travel platform
is also based on the concept from Doctor Doom's time travel platform it's just a very different looking
kind of platform the one in Doctor Strange 2 is more literally meant to be a copy of Doctor Doom's
time travel platform because the way it looks here the reason why his portal would be blue in
Doctor Strange suit probably just because the difference in the actual technology behind the
portals themselves the version that Kang uses in the distant future the TVA technology would be
vastly vastly more advanced so this means in the 838 Universe John krasinski's Reed Richards had
already encountered a version of Doctor Doom makes sense this is kind of like the wish fulfillment
most comic bookie universe that we've ever been to inside the MCU Multiverse like every big Easter
egg from the comics mixed together in a bucket put on the Illuminati together which themselves
are a huge Easter egg for the team in the comics so this version of Reed Richards would have had a
version of their comic book history together with Doctor Doom in school Doctor Doom's origin story is also
connected to the history of the Fantastic Four when they were attending school they kind of did
a version of that backstory during the classic Fantastic Four movies at Fox you know you made
a lot of folks at MIT feel like a junior high science fair so you'll excuse me if I say for
the moment and this 838 Universe version of Reed Richards developed his portal Technology based
on Doctor Doom's time travel platform meaning that their Doctor Doom had already figured out time
travel and built a version of it like in the main MCU 616 universe is Iron Man who's the one to be
the first to figure out time travel building his time travel platform you have to imagine in this
universe it was Doctor Doom being the person to do that and then this version of Reed Richards just
improves on that design basing his portal take on it because the writer said that this version of
the 838 Universe Fantastic Four backstory and Doctor Doom took more from the comics you have to
imagine that this universe's Doctor Doom also created his time travel platform for similar
comic book reasons like all the Illuminati stuff with them versus their their version of Thanos and
their version of Avengers Infinity war is all completely separate from the Doctor Doom stuff
it sounds like I'm not expecting to see Doctor Doom during this new Fantastic Four movie they might be
introducing him in some other MCU place but there were reports they were actually going to tease him
during black panther wakanda Forever at one point and he would have been behind the initial mission
to actually find vibranium underwater because we're getting so close to the movie coming out
we'll probably see some more Easter eggs for his character as well as the other Fantastic Four
characters everyone just posts all your reactions about what's going on let me know who you want to
play the other Fantastic Four characters in the comments Marvel's next big series that I'll be
doing episodes for is secret Invasion click here for my brand new secret Invasion trailer
