The Marvel Cinematic Universe is adding John Malkovich to the ever-expanding franchise as he has landed a role in The Fantastic Four movie. One of the most highly anticipated upcoming films for the MCU is The Fantastic Four, after the character rights finally returned to Marvel Studios after being at Fox for many years. Production on the reboot is expected to start later this year, and The Fantastic Four cast is currently being filled out ahead of filming starting.

S.R confirmed with Disney/Marvel that Malkovich is joining the MCU as part of The Fantastic Four cast. However, details about Malkovich’s character are being kept under wraps for the time being, so it remains to be seen who he’ll play in the film. Malkovich is the latest talent to board the reboot, following the news of Paul Walter Hauser being cast for a secret role too.

With a major talent like Malkovich joining The Fantastic Four, chances are high that he will play a central role in the Phase 5 installment. Since it has been reported that The Fantastic Four’s main villain will be Galactus, it wouldn’t be shocking if that is who the Academy-Award-nominated actor is portraying in the MCU. Even though there is always the chance that he could play someone else, there are a lot of good reasons for why Malkovich would be a good fit to play Galactus.

Given how Galactus’ only live-action appearance was a missed opportunity, tapping Malkovich as the big bad would be a major first step in getting the character right in The Fantastic Four. Not only is Malkovich a gifted actor, but his voice alone would be a terrific fit as the iconic Fantastic Four villain. Since Galactus will most likely be rendered through CGI, it wouldn’t require Malkovich to have to sign on for a role that would be too physically demanding.

To this point, The Fantastic Four cast is shaping up to be pretty solid for the reboot. There will likely be more characters and cast members added before principal photography gets going. Hopefully, more details on Malkovich’s mystery role – and who exactly is playing Galactus – in The Fantastic Four will be revealed sooner rather than later.
