Margot Robbie’s Sue Storm Casting Reportedly Still Not Confirmed, Marvel Looking for Other Actresses for Fantastic Four
There is undoubtedly a lot happening in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as far as future projects are concerned. With the ongoing Marvel’s Phase 5 this year, more future projects are underway with the next.
One of them is the Fantastic Four comeback, which has been in the talks for a long time. The most recent appearance of an FF character was in Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness, where John Krasinski cameoed as Reed Richards.
However, it is not been confirmed whether he will also be taking up the role in the upcoming Fantastic Four movie. And more recently, another character’s casting has also been reported as not being confirmed yet. Margot Robbie, who was rumored to be playing Marvel’s Sue Storm, is not the final choice. And the studio is still looking for the perfect match.
Upcoming Fantastic Four Film’s Sue Storm Casting Is Still Undecided
For a long time since the word went out that Marvel Studio was bringing their Fantastic Four (FF) back, the casting for the four main characters has been constantly up in the air, especially among fans. Possible choices for the first family include Adam Driver, Emily Blunt, Margot Robbie, etc.
However, it also came to light that the studio has not confirmed anything regarding the cast as of yet. More recently, it has been reported that the rumor of Margot Robbie being cast as Sue Storm in Fantastic Four is not true. Reportedly, no actor has been locked in for the characters yet, which means MCU is still open about casting options.
Many of the fans have since reacted to this news on Twitter and have given their opinion on the best cast for the role.

All they need to get for Sue Storm is Jodie Comer. Call her! If they can't secure her then get Meghann Fahy. It's not that hard

I hope they do something insanely left fields like Halley Bailey or Meng'zer Zhang as Storm, Trevante Rhodes or Ronny Chieng as Torch and Ma Dong-Seok or Harish Patel as the Thing. Weird, new and different, I'd so be there for that.

From the people’s reactions, Jodie Comer and Meghan Fahey are mostly mentioned to take on the role. Also many think that Robbie is too popular and well-recognized for Sue Storm’s character, despite her talent.
More on The Upcoming Fantastic Four Reboot
It was confirmed last year by Kevin Feige that Fantastic Four would be back in Marvel’s Phase Six in February 2025. A lot has since happened, as plenty of rumors have been around the casting of the four main characters, namely Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic), Sue Storm (Invisible Woman), Johnny Storm (Human Torch), and Ben Grimm (The Thing).
The reboot is being directed by Matt Shakman which was confirmed at a Disney event D23 last year. As far as any other information that is available, the film will not have any origin story involved.
