Fantastic Four is an upcoming MCU Phase 5 movie which will serve as a Marvel Earth 616 reboot. Though nothing much has been revealed about the film, it is already trending owing to Doctor Strange 2. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness proved to a be unique but not so glorious MCU film. It had a lot of potential but it is safe to say that it did not live up to it properly. Yet it made up for an entertaining and thrilling watch which kept viewers on the edge of their seats and sometimes fall off it. That’s because there is no doubt Doctor Strange 2 was the scariest Marvel film till date and it could have been really scary if it wasn’t PG-13. Thanks, to one crazy moment in the movie, Fantastic Four is trending along with “Fantastic 3” on Twitter, and here’s why.
MCU – Fantastic 3 Trends Instead of Fantastic Four
One of the most surprising scene moments in Doctor Strange 2 was the appearance of Illuminati, which quickly turned into the most horrifying moment in the film. The Earth-838 Illuminati suffered quite gory deaths at the hands of Scarlett Witch and one of them was Mr. Fantastic. As previously leaked, the famous actor and director John Krasinski took on the role of Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic of Earth-838. The short but hype-worthy cameo ended up in one of the most brutal deaths in the MCU, leaving fans rooting for more. Anyways, Krasinski will surely return to play Earth 616 Mr. Fantastic but as for Earth 838, Fantastic Four has been reduced to Fantastic 3. This is exactly what sparked this new trend all of a sudden.
