Molecule Man? Puppet Master? Our theories on the Oscar winner's MCU role.

Marvel's First Family is about to be back on the big screen, with Marvel Studios ' The Fantastic Four currently on track for a 2025 release date. Now that the film's four main protagonists have been set, its ensemble cast is beginning to take shape — and it just added an Oscar-winning actor. John Malkovich has reportedly joined the cast of The Fantastic Four , but his role remains unknown at this time.

Nathaniel RichardsNo, not the future-flung Nathaniel Richards known as Kang the Conqueror, whose involvement in the future of the MCU remains uncertain at the moment. It doesn't seem unfounded that Malkovich could be playing the original Nathaniel Richards, an accomplished scientist and the father of Reed Richards . Created by John Byrne during Fantastic Four's 1980s run, Nathaniel work in the field of science allows him to travel throughout time.

Franklin StormIn the same vein, there's a chance that Malkovich could portray Dr. Franklin Storm, the father of Sue Storm and Johnny Storm . A surgeon who ends up in prison after committing manslaughter, he eventually gets swapped with the Super-Skrull, which kickstarts a whole cosmic fight that ultimately leads to his demise.
