Mila Kunis Shut Down The Rumor She’d Been Cast In The New “Fantastic Four” Movie, But Teased That She Knows Who Is

Just in case you didn’t know, Marvel is rebooting the Fantastic Four and bringing them into the MCU (in their own movie) in 2025.

And while the Fantastic Four is set to begin filming early next year with Matt Shakman (who directed WandaVision) as the director, we still haven’t gotten word on who the cast is.

Well, last week, the internet went wild when a rumor circulated around that Mila Kunis had been cast as The Thing. Needless to say, fans were NOT happy.

It should be noted that Marvel Comics does have a female variant of The Thing, so the character can be either male or female. 

But, Mila set the record straight during an appearance last Wednesday on The Late Late Show, when asked by James Corden whether she was going to play Sue Storm in the film (which, apparently, is the other rumored role she was set to play).

According to Mila, she had actually just gone to grab lunch with Matt, and seemed confused by the whole thing, saying, “Apparently, if you go to lunch with somebody that is also in the industry, you then start working together, according to the internet.”

She then added, “I am not in Fantastic Four, but I know who is. I don’t want to get in trouble with The Mouse, so none of you will find out.”
