David Tennant Reveals He Had His “Eye On” Portraying Reed Richards In ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Before Pedro Pascal Got The Role
David Tennant says he 'would have quite liked' to portray Reed Richards in 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' before Pedro Pascal was ultimately cast.
During a panel conversation at MCM Comic Con in London, the Doctor Who alum was asked by a fan if there were any villains or superheroes he would like to portray that he hasn’t gotten the chance to yet. “In terms of superheroes, I don’t know, I did slightly have my eye on Reed Richards, and unfortunately, it looks like they’ve gone in a different direction,” he said tongue-in-cheek, “although if it has to be someone, I’m happy for it to be Pedro Pascal, frankly.” Due in theaters July 25 and helmed by three-time Emmy nominee Matt Shakman, First Steps marks the fourth attempt to translate the original comic book characters to the silver screen.
