Published 2024-05-17
Casting updates continue to roll out for Fantastic Four as we eagerly await for Marvel’s first family to officially join the MCU in July 2025. The most recent announcement sees Natasha Lyonne joining the film in an unnamed role, along with the recent casting news of John Malkovich, Paul Walter Hauser, and Ralph Ineson as Galactus. But could these announcements shed more light on the plot of the upcoming film? Jessica Clemons shows us how the casting of Natasha Lyonne could tell us more about the role H.E.R.B.I.E could play in the film, especially when it comes to the Devourer of Worlds, Galactus.

Malkovich = Puppet Master Lyonne = Alicia Masters Lyonne would play off of Ben perfectly!
-
You guys had a lot of fun making this one LOL
-
Loving all the Herbie dubs 😂😂😂
-
Love the D.O.T. Matrix reference!
-
If we had an older x-men cast, I’d have cast Lyonne for Rogue. She’d be perfect.
-
Natasha as H.E.R.B.I.E. is wiiiiiiiiiiild
-
HERBIE would have a lot of sass in this movie.😂😂
-
I thought Paul Walter was an odd choice for Herbie but I was excited for it. I need Natasha Lyonne as Herbie now, very curious as to who Paul and John Malkovich are playing now!
-
I still think John is going to be another elder of the universe. They've been casting very distinct characters to fill those rolls. I looked this up last week so it's not fresh on my mind but I think I came up with the astronomer and the possessor as being good candidates.
-
The Venture Bros did the herbie story in the 6th or 7th season season. Dr ventures consciousness went from an homepod to their “Baxter building” venture industries
-
I think Natasha might play Alicia Masters (Ben's girlfriend)
-
My predictions: John Malkovich: Puppetmaster Natasha Lyonne: Alicia Masters Paul Walter Hauser: Moleman And I don’t think HERBIE has been cast yet but I expect that to happen any day now.
-
0:52 Idk why, but when I look at John Malkovich I definitely see him as the Puppet Master lol
-
I thought that If anything, she’d play Alicia masters not herbie 🤔
-
THE PUPPET MASTER! MOLEMAN FROM THE FIRST ISSUE! AND NOW NATASHA!! I'M LOOSING MY MIND HERE!🤯🤯🤯
-
Purely for physical reason, I immediately thought of Medusa when Natasha Lyonne was mentioned.
-
THANKS, Ms. Clemons!!!!
-
Jessica!!!!❤❤🎉🎉🎉
-
7:45 😳I don’t think we need to share our hurbies , once you catch herbies you have it for lif
-
Nice research Jessica. A lot of new comic information I've learnt.
