Marvel’s upcoming Fantastic Four reboot is beginning to fill out the rest of its cast, and now Emmy-winner Paul Walter Hauser is the latest addition. Via Deadline, Hauser’s role is currently undisclosed, so he could be playing a friend or foe to the first family of superheroes.
Hauser won his Emmy earlier this year for his haunting supporting role as serial killer Larry Hall in Apple TV+’s Black Bird. He also starred as the title character in Richard Jewell, and he has a recurring role on Netflix’s Cobra Kai.
In 2024 alone, Hauser has voiced the Dark in Netflix’s animated film, Orion and the Dark, in addition to lending his voice to Embarrassment in Pixar’s Inside Out 2. Hauser also recently signed on to star as the late Saturday Night Live legend Chris Farley in a biopic directed by Josh Gad. Additionally, Hauser will star opposite Liam Neeson, Pamela Anderson, and Kevin Durand in The Naked Gun reboot.
Earlier this year, Marvel announced that The Mandalorian’s Pedro Pascal will play Mr. Fantastic alongside Vanessa Kirby as Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as the Thing. More recently, Ozark’s Julia Garner was cast as Shalla-Bal, who will be the Silver Surfer in the MCU.
The Fantastic Four will be directed by Matt Shakman from a script by Eric Pearson, Josh Friedman, Jeff Kaplan, and Ian Springe. Marvel will release the film on July 25, 2025.
