Marvel Studios’ Fantastic Four has already found Galactus
Marvel Studios has hired an Oscar-nominated actor for an as-yet-undisclosed role.
John Malkovich in the MCU
According to Deadline, John Malkovich has joined the Fantastic Four movie. Unfortunately, the outlet did not reveal who the famous actor will be playing, so fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will have to guess about the mysterious role. It was recently confirmed that Paul Walter Hauser will be a part of the film, but it has not been revealed who he will be playing. The Fantastic Four cast is completed by Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm and Julia Garner as Shala-Bal.
Malkovich was nominated for an Oscar twice for In the Heart and In the Line of Fire, and won an Emmy for Death of a Salesman.
Marvel already has Galactus.
Marvel Studios has chosen Ralph Ineson to be the MCU’s Galactus. This isn’t Inson’s first time playing a Marvel character, as the actor gave life to a pilot in the original Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
Fantastic Four hits theaters on July 25, 2025.
