Terry Crews Wants to Play The Thing in Fantastic Four | Superhero Hype
Besides his smaller roles in The Newsroom and Arrested Development, I like his current role in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, which is pretty funny.

Why don't they just cast the whole team Black and call it the Fantastic Harlem Four

This time,The Thing needs to be CGI....

 

[Biojex]

Ya know...**** it. Cast him as Thing. It would be great

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Since he'll be covered in orange CGI rocks why why the hell not.

If SLJ can be Nick Fury and it be fine why not this?

Ya know Fury was black in the ultimate universe right?

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Ahhhh, but it wasn't called The Ultimates

Clark Duncan is another example though.

Well then,Black Panther's cameo will be casted by a White Guy

 

[Biojex]

Well just as long as you're aware


All I know is, I want to hear Terry yell, "it's clobberin time WOO!"

The gif was in response to calling it "Fantastic Harlem four"

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Lots of

"HE CAN'T PLAY HIM, HE'S NOT WHITE"

"HAVE HIM PLAY THAT BLACK CHARACTER INSTEAD BECAUSE HE'S BLACK"

Crews could break em all in half

I hope they don't cast Crews as Thing only because he needs to be Luke Cage. If Ant Man can get a movie, Power Man and Iron Fist can sure as hell get one too.

I wouldn't be against a black dude playing Thing, or Fury, or any number of other characters, so long as they still retained the essence of the 616 comic characters. I'm not sure if Crews can do that for the Thing, though (Jackson certainly doesn't do that with Fury--I don't care about whatever the Ultimates version does). The actor chosen would need some dramatic chops to play that kind of tortured character. Thing isn't just a "let's go nuts and beat the **** out of everyone" character, which is someone I think Crews would be better suited to play. He could certainly be a good member of the Wrecking Crew. He's got the build and attitude.

I'd love an Iron fist movie.

I was discussing this with a couple friends who are comic book fans and also happen to be black. Taking an established character and casting a black actor seems like pandering when there are so many characters that are already black, were created black and continue to be black. I don't want Tom Cruise playing T'Challa but would like to see Crews as Luke Cage.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Do you find it pandering when people come across as saying "he should play this black character because he's black and it fits" Whereas with a white actor it's because "he's a good actor that could pull off the characterisation of the character" not just the skin colour.

If you get my meaning.
