That they're going to make Mister Fantastic black as well?

Or do you think they'll chicken out and go with the "They're not actually related" plot line lmao

isn't he some distant descendant of his?

if so, Kang can still be black while Reed is white.

Reed isn't Kang's dad. They're related over the course of a few generations. So Reed can be Caucasian and still end up with a black descendant.

A few generations? Isn't it 1000 years?

Pretty sure they already confirmed the same actor for Kang in Ant-Man.

I'm just saying

There's an alligator Loki out there and our Loki isn't even the original Loki in any sense of the meaning, so.......

I thought he was supposed to be a descendant of Reed's father and not Reed himself but maybe not lol.

Either way it seems like a cop-out if they do end up running with that backstory for the MCU and then just casting a white actor as Mister Fantastic.

John Krasinski would be my choice for Mr. Fantastic but John David Washington can also take the role.

At that point, are they really even considered "related" at all?

After ~16 generations, you would have 32000 direct ancestors, and that only goes back 500 years.

Yeah. This article is a good read.
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/humans-are-all-more-closely-related-than-we-commonly-think/

It's estimated that anyone of European descent shares some relation as recently as 1000 years back. So he is Mr. Fantastic's descendant, but it would be nothing special that far in the future in the real world.

Looks kinda like Apocalypse

I would buy Thanos, Female Loki, Galactus, and Mephisto as all being dark god variants of Kang (Crossed with other characters)

I don't think anyone totally knows how high-level of a villain he's going to be. Him being the bad guy in Ant-Man 3 seems pretty low-level idk.

If they continue down this route as a reference to the thought put into the casting and how the characters have evolved over the years on paper as well as on the set....

I think that would be fine

Have you seen Loki? His performance was fantastic and I eagerly anticipate him being a full villain.

Lol come on now. Reed wouldnt even have to be in an interracial relationship. 1000 years is a helluva long time. His grandkids grandkids could be in an interracial relationship, and then after that their mixed race kids could marry into a black family. A white mans descents can be predominantly black in like, less than 100-150 years, let alone 1000. That being said Im almost certain that someone in the F4 will be black, but its not remotely necessary to make Reed and Kang related.

It probably won't even be mentioned because it won't be relevant to any of the F4 movies.
