My most anticipated movie of the summer just keeps looking better. The official site of the upcoming Fantastic Four released some cool features on the four main characters. The features include a brief bio of each character along with a report from Dr. Franklin Storm (Reg. E Cathy). I think this is something worth checking out, especially if you want to get little more in depth than what we’ve seen in the trailers of who these characters are. Personally, I find the actors and their characters more fitting than I did before.
Unfortunately, I must bring up the controversy that has taken place over Reed Richard’s bio. Specifically, when it says “he can warp the space around him“. For some reason this caused an outcry among internet users, as if they were looking for something else to complain about with this film. Producer Simon Kinberg has just clarified with HitFix that Richards does indeed stretch. The person who was assigned to write these bios was simply asked to explain the character’s powers in a more scientific way.
Now that all that is out of the way, check the character bio’s and reports below. At the bottom is a link to the official website. I highly recommend you visit the site, as they’ve done some cool stuff for the film there.
Fantastic Four releases on August 7, 2015
Reed Richards
REED RICHARDS IS A SCIENTIFIC PRODIGY WHO HAS BEEN QUIETLY EXPLORING THE UNIVERSE’S DEEPEST MYSTERIES IN HIS GARAGE, AFTER SCHOOL. AFTER BEING TRANSFORMED BY ONE OF HIS EXPERIMENTS, HE CAN WARP THE SPACE AROUND HIM, AND APPEAR TO STRETCH HIS BODY INTO IMPOSSIBLE FORMS AND TO INCREDIBLE LENGTHS.
Dr. Franklin Storm’s comments:
“Reed Richards, a scientific prodigy. Unfortunately his home life was not condusive to intellectual growth. I’ve seen it before, an ambitious mind in a hostile environment, groundbreaking ideas mistaken for delusions. He has yet to reach his full potential. With help I have faith he will get there.”
Sue Storm
SUE IS BRILLIANT AND BEAUTIFUL, INDEPENDENT AND SARCASTIC. THE POWER TO BECOME INVISIBLE AND TO GENERATE HER OWN FORCE-FIELDS CAN MAKE HER HARDER TO REACH THAN EVER—BUT THAT WON’T STOP SOME OF HER TEAMMATES, ESPECIALLY REED, FROM TRYING.
Dr. Franklin Storm’s comments:
“Sue Storm, independent and prefers to work alone which is no surprise. She wasn’t always the easiest child but she is her own person. Her mind is unique, operating at a different tempo, visualizing things the rest of us can’t see. If only she would let us in, the possibilities are endless.”
Johnny Storm
A TROUBLEMAKER AND A THRILL-SEEKER, JOHNNY IS THE ROCK STAR OF THE TEAM. HIS POWERS ALLOW HIM TO SHOOT FIREBALLS, FLY AT BREAKNECK SPEEDS, AND REALLY LIGHT IT UP.
Dr. Franklin Storm’s comments:
“Johnny Storm, extremely bright and good-natured but unfocused with unbridled energy. His acts of defiance compensate for feelings of insecurity and at times his rebelliousness is a distraction. I need to help him see the value of his contributions. And also, teach him how to be a team player.”
Ben Grimm
A RARE BREED OF BRAWN AND HEART, BEN IS WARM, EVEN SENSITIVE, DESPITE HIS ROUGH-AND-TUMBLE UPBRINGING. HE IS ROCK-SOLID—IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. A LOYAL AND PROTECTIVE FRIEND, HIS STONE BODY GIVES HIM EPIC STRENGTH AND MAKES HIM VIRTUALLY INDESTRUCTIBLE.
Dr. Franklin Storm’s comments:
“Ben, uncooperative, disinterested and far from a team player. Ben’s abrasiveness stems from a callous upbringing and though he is despondent there is hope. As he is fiercely protective of his friends, perhaps I can break through to him by earning his loyalty, but this will be no easy task.”
