The role of Reed Richards in the upcoming Fantastic Four reboot is still up for grabs, but Adam Driver reportedly rejoined the short list of prospective casting as the actor is called in to read the new script for the film.Driver’s name is popular among the rumor mill as one of the actors considered to play Mister Fantastic, in yet another Fantastic Four reboot film. The Star Wars actor even reportedly turned down the role because he couldn’t relate to the character in the early version of the script. A new report, however, has suggested Driver’s renewed interest in the project, pending review of screenwriter Josh Friedman’s revisions. This development rekindled the hopes of fans to see Driver’s take on Reed Richards. Daniel Richtman, a reputable entertainment scooper, first dropped the leak, per Fantastic Four Updates on X.Reports of Driver’s involvement in the project have been contradictory and mixed. The actor was rumored in talks with Marvel for a Fantastic Four role as early as October last year. His potential casting then was entirely speculative, but his role as Kylo Ren in the Star Wars sequel trilogy proved he would be perfect as Doctor Doom. Fans took to social media with a mounting appeal that Marvel cast Driver as Doctor Doom instead of Reed Richards, a role which was then played by John Krasinski in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Krasinski has since maintained that his casting as Mister Fantastic was a one-time thing, quelling prospects of his repeat appearances in the MCU.RELATED: Adam Driver Should Be the MCU’s Reed Richards – And White Noise Proves It
