Exciting news has emerged for Marvel fans, with Pedro Pascal, known for his roles in “The Last of Us” and “The Mandalorian,” gearing up to join the cast of the highly anticipated reboot of “Fantastic Four.” According to a listing from SAG-AFTRA Foundation, Pascal is set to star in Marvel Studios’ “Fantastic Four” movie, scheduled for release in 2025.

While Pascal’s role as Reed Richards, also known as Mister Fantastic, was reported last year, this listing confirms his involvement. It states, “Pascal recently wrapped production on Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated Gladiator 2 and will soon begin production on Marvel Studios’ Fantastic Four.”

Although there hasn’t been an official announcement from Disney or Marvel Studios yet, this confirmation from SAG-AFTRA Foundation is a promising sign for fans eagerly awaiting updates on the project.

Pascal’s introduction to the Marvel Cinematic Universe aligns with the ongoing “Multiversal Saga,” hinting at his potential involvement in future Avengers movies, particularly the upcoming Secret Wars storyline.
