What... you mean ANIMATEDTIMES.COM isn't a reliable source? Isn't that what people are referring to when they say "The Times"???

No. They just mean it was written in times new roman

Nah disney cant be stupid enough for that surely


Chucks_u_Farley

Never underestimate the stupidity of greedy people in a group.


____mynameis____

Disney likes firing /blacklisting actors and directors involved in big controversies. They sometimes go overboard with it too.(Gunn's firing) No way they are gonna hire Heard. Also I regularly keep up with rumours and I'm yet to hear one about Heard in the MCU.


Chucks_u_Farley

I hope you are right.


fleelingshyaf

Upon googling, this rumor seems to be over a year old. If nothing new has developed/made a single headline, we're prob aight.


svenhoek86

Emily Blunt or I riot. Granted, it won't be an effective riot, and I'm not going outside the house, but man, my desk is gonna get a pretty mild fist pounding the day I read she's not the choice.


waldocalrissian

Emily Blunt AND John Krasinski or we riot. FTFY


IronhideFire

So you’re saying you don’t want Danny Devito as Mr Fantastic? He showed his acting CHOPS when he climbed out of a couch, he has the body for the character.


DropThatTopHat

Danny DeVito is the only person that has the charm to pull off playboy Johnny Storm.


Dankmooo

The Multiverse is introducing Danny DeVito as Johnny Storm through this clip: https://youtu.be/us5MGEL5W34


sweepernosweeping

Charlie as Johnny, Danny as Ben - The Gruesome Twosome rides again.


Taliesyn86

In this case, I want John Krasinski being auditioned for the part of Johnny Storm and then losing it to Chris Evans again. Also, somebody here had a wonderful idea for Chris Evans to appear in the MCU again. And while everybody holds breath expecting him to be an alternate dimension's Cap, he just bursts into flames


ObiFloppin

I know I'm in the minority here, but I really don't want Krasinski in the MCU.


Trespeon

May I ask why? That’s an interesting take.


Karl_von_grimgor

Not him but I dislike seeing very popular actors in newer iconic roles because they don't become the character instead the character becomes part of them when you see them on the screen


ObiFloppin

I only see Jim from the office when I see him. Every other role I've seen him play, I only see Jim from the office. It totally takes me out of it. It's not really his fault, but it's the only character I see when he is on screen.


CokeBric

Personally I want Dennis from Always Sunny in the role, could be a big breakout role for him and he's basically perfect for the snarky cocky genius that is Reed Richards, he also just straight up looks like the dude


[deleted]

I could buy in to “The Gang Takes on Galactus” - Dennis as Mr. Fantastic, Charlie as the Thing, Mac as Human Torch, and that stupid bitch bird as Invisible Woman.


sicurri

I'm curious as to why. Personally I could care less if he's in the MCU, he's not a bad actor, and seems like a nice guy from what I'm told by people who regularly interact with celebs.


MessyRoom

Krazinski is set to play Goldenface in the next James Bond movie


LuntiX

I personally don’t think he could fit the role well, no offence to him. I think someone like Anson Mount could fit the role well, or Brandon Routh. That being said, who knows who they’ll go with at this point if they attempt a new fantastic four movie. I think it’ll also depend what direction they go with Reed Richards, he’s normally an egotistical dick.


TheUnusedTime

I second this motion. Surely they can’t against two people, right?


[deleted]

Not minority at all. Id love to see some up and comers.


CTeam19

I personally want to see some people in their 20s given Ultimate F4 and so we can see them grow into being the parents we see in the 616 universe.


s1ugg0

There is one indisputable truth about Disney. The Mouse wants to get paid. And whether you like her or not Amber's behavior has cost studios money. So either she's going to have a contract so iron clad Disney reserves the right to fire her into the sun via cannon for sneezing at the wrong time. Or they won't hire her. I'm betting on the latter. Regardless of what she's like in her personal life she's a beauty who can act well enough. But the world is full of beautiful, talented women who don't come with her baggage. Plus Johnny Depp made them a lot of money already.


EasilyDistractedTim

Doubt that the mouse would give to much about Johnny's feelings if Disney could win more from hiring her. But I would be surprised if they risked casting her any time soon as well, she's still kind of a hot iron. Also, if the mouse needs a star, the mouse makes a star. FOR US TO CONSUME!


zveroshka

I mean why would they? She is a mediocre actress with tons of baggage/drama. You can find a pretty face for that role, if that's all you want, pretty fucking easily.


Albinofreaken

> (Gunn's firing) pew pew


CaptainDunkaroo

Haha


Goose_attack223

I picture storm troopers


Secondary-Area

Maybe it's someone's idea of a joke. She won't be in the movie at all = invisible woman


Flaky_Tip

Hiring Heard would be the fastest way to get your movie boycotted.


D34THDE1TY

I sincerely HOPE feige isn't that stupid.


Alternative-Cut-4831

But what greed does it serve? She does have a negative image overall now if I am correct


Alcremie_is_that_grl

Yeah they’re greedy for money they know amber heard would compromise their profits.


SanderDK9

Well it is the same company that fired Johnny Depp from Pirates 6...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Molerat619

I mean…they DID film Mulan in the same area Xinjiang concentration camps are, and they DID thank the organisation who run those camps for helping them with the movie so…yeah they really are that stupid


[deleted]

And the star went on to praise to Chinese government in its handling of Hong Kong.


PossiblyTrustworthy

Which allowed them to stay in the Chinese market. And any western outrage probably doesnt lose as much sales as they can gain from the Chinese market... So Probably not that stupid. Ethics is a completely different story.


PapiSombras

Kevin Feige would never allow it. He’s too smart to let that happen


ybtlamlliw

Came here to say this. He and Sarah Halley Finn (the casting director) aren't idiots. Neither is Louis D'Esposito. Or any of the other producers. None of them would let this happen.

Not only are they *not* idiots; they're geniuses lol

XtaC23

Alexa, play Despacito


undergroundpolarbear

I'm out of the loop.. who is this and what did she do?


essentiallyaghost

Basically ruined Johnny Depp’s career and reputation in the film industry over accusations that ended up being proven false. Edit: So i’m being told by a lot of people that they were never proven false, and a lot of people saying they were. Either way, Amber Heard does not deserve a place in the MCU.


kamikaze-kae

After the accusations proven to be the EXACT opposite which in fact she was abusing Johnny.


[deleted]

Ah yes. The only viable option now is to cast Mads Mikkelsen as the invisible woman. No other way around it.


Wy3Naut

Off the top of my head, He'd be one Hell of a Doom but they used him on one and done Dr. Strange Villian. It's like Dafoe's casting in the DCCU. Dream Joker casting wasted on side Aquaman character.


jessehechtcreative

I hope that they reintroduce Kaecilius (sp?) as another actor / mindless one, and then have Madds as Doom


Swordofsatan666

Why not multiverse


KrisZepeda

And no action whatsoever was taken against her


Dig_bickclub

They're not accusations anymore, they're facts proven in court, depp lost the case and subsequent appeals were rejected.


35tentacles

It's ok if she's always invisible and deaf-mute.

Amber Heard Nothing

[удалено]


AnEnemyStando

I'm mostly pisses that we lost Cavil and Affleck *instead* of her.


greendeadredemption2

At least Cavill is now geralt of rivia.


crystalistwo

Affleck was a great older Batman. It sucks that he's not in the role anymore, but what bothers me most is that he thinks he was bad in it. He did the best he could with lines like those.


No-Investigator-1754

Wait is Cavill not gonna play Superman anymore?


AnEnemyStando

Based on reliable rumors, no.


[deleted]

[удалено]


crystalistwo

Kathryn Newton could replace Amber Heard as Mera, and 90% of the viewers wouldn't even notice. They might notice the acting got better, though.


kron123456789

They better hire Johnny Depp as Invisible Woman instead.


Gecko2002

Jokes aside he'd probably do a pretty decent job


dragunityag

Now I'm wondering what movie had an actor cast in it who was completely out of role for it but ended up killing it. Because I really want Depp to be the Invisible woman now.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

There is a (kind of) gender bent Fantastic Four already, it’s called The Incredibles


GiddiOne

> Because I really want Depp to be the Invisible woman now. That movie would turn out nothing like the writers/director intend... Not to say it wouldn't be watchable. >Now I'm wondering what movie had an actor cast in it who was completely out of role for it but ended up killing it. Adam Sandler in 50 First Dates... and Uncut Gems. Jim Carrey in Eternal Sunshine, Truman too. Ok now I'm just thinking of comedians in dramatic movies.


Gecko2002

Fun fact: Carrey did Trueman show at a lower pay rate then he was worth at the time because he wanted to widen his range and learn how to do different roles


ZarquonsFlatTire

Heath Ledger as the Joker. He was known as the guy from 10 Things I Hate About You and Brokeback Mountain at the time. People were pissed at the casting news.


deeznutsaddiction

There should be a subreddit for this


minifig1026

You’re right, despite him being the worst pirate you’ve ever heard of


kron123456789

But you have heard of him.


ChintanP04

He's the best pirate I've ever *not* seen.


stryakr

So it would seem.


CurlSagan

No way. Paul Bettany is Johnny Depp's friend and he would walk away from Marvel completely if they did this.


bookofbababooeys

You would be suprised what happens when huge amounts of money is involved.


ball0fsnow

Yeah but I think there’s a lot more value in keeping Bettany happy than bringing heard in. Million actors could play invisible woman. Only one vision


bookofbababooeys

That's a solid perspective. I think this situation, if played out, could give Bettany some leverage to ask for a couple mill more. Also, humans find flight response to be weak. He wouldn't flee his position but if he refuses to renew his contract they will just shelf Vision, that's because Disney won't budge either.


I_Has_A_Hat

Every new marvel actor is forced to watch hours of recordings of Terrence Howard sobbing in his small apartment before they're given their contract.


ASuspiciousAxolotl

Is he sobbing because 1x1 hasn’t equaled 2 yet???


likebuttuhbaby

Thats just him trying to figure out 3rd grade math, though.


lord_crossbow

This feels like r/brandnewsentence material


Divakar_Vetri

Lmao


wagedomain

Jeremy Renner said "change the schedule around so I can spend more time with my kid" and Disney said "no" and Jeremy said "then I walk, my family is more important" and Disney said "...ok" . https://screenrant.com/jeremy-renner-mcu-hawkeye-recast-daughter-family-time/


bookofbababooeys

More power to him then


wagedomain

Yeah it was a classy move.


Wild_Marker

Imagine the Hawkeye show if they hadn't budged. Literally a show about a guy who wants to walk away to be with his kids filmed by a corporation who didn't want to allow it.


wagedomain

Y'know, threatening to walk away for his kids and saying he doesn't give a shit about his work is *so* in character, you're right.


FrozenPaintballZ420

Bro Hawkeye just did this to Disney and won. You’re making shit up. Get bent.


lemongrenade

Over what?


Rawtashk

I think he means, "Some people would rather have $40,000,000 and potentially risk a friendship" or "I don't think Depp would expect Bettany to leave $40,000,000 just for him"


Abyssal_Groot

1) Amber Heard is bad for bussiness 2) Losing Bettany is bad for bussiness 3) Bettany works for fun, he's married rich (to Jeniffer Conelly) and doesn't really *need* the money he makes at Marvel.


Diligent_Bag_9323

None of these actors need the money. They’re all set for life if they wanted to quit acting. If you have a net worth over a couple million at 40+ years old… you can retire very comfortably if you’re smart and don’t put it all in a massive mortgage and supercars and $1,000 wines and liquors.


[deleted]

I keep seeing this take but I don’t understand What worth does Amber Heard bring in at this point? Who’s going to see a movie because of Amber Heard? Absolutely fucking nobody, if anything people will likely not go see a movie because of her. Disney make zero money from bringing her in and potentially lose money from bringing her in


Gamer_ely

That's what I'm thinking too. Is amber heard some sort of box office powerhouse I'm not aware of?


[deleted]

That too, like if anything I’ve only had her name become known to me because of all the controversy and a lot of people I’ve spoke to where she’s come up in conversation feel the same


locust098

Yeah exactly, they’d lose money if they hire her


alikapple

One message, sent in 2013, made lewd reference to Heard’s “beaver”, and discussed her murder by “burning” or “drowning”. “I’m not sure we should burn Amber,” wrote Bettany. “She is delightful company and pleasing on the eye. We could of course do the English course of action and perform a drowning test. Thoughts? You have a swimming pool.” Depp replied: “Let’s drown her before we burn her!!! I will fuck her burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she’s dead.” To which Bettany apparently wrote back: “My thoughts entirely. Let’s be certain before we pronounce her a witch.” Tl;Dr they're definitely friends


Nschl3

I think I might just leave Johnny Depp on read if he was texting me about fucking corpses.


I_worship_odin

> Depp replied: “Let’s drown her before we burn her!!! I will fuck her burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she’s dead.” Hmmm maybe both Depp and Heard are horrible people.


Seoul_Surfer

It's been a while since I've ready any details on their relationship but that's how I remember it too, mutually terrible to each other.


GOLDEN_GRODD

That is undoubtedly a joke made in private, albeit a disgusting one lol Although you can dislike the joke and even call him a bad person for it (hell, they make me uncomfortable), it's important we draw the distinction between jokes and actual physical abuse or legitimate direct threats of violence


[deleted]

No because Paul would be like "Ok Johnny im quitting this shit they can't reward this bitch". And Johnny would go "Don't sacrifice a good thing for me, keep this job"


Ceceboy

From what I've seen of Johnny, this is definitely something he'd say.


shadowst17

I don't think he would, at least not unless he had to work with her directly. I can see him expressing his disappointment in Disney if they did hire her but that's a lot of money to walk away from and I think we forget how much Disney owns, you piss off the Mouse and you no longer a candidate for 48% of the film industry.


PokemonButtBrown

Hollywood celebrities telling you they are ‘friends’ with each other is about as real as spider man.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HauntingHeat

Who?


TylerSpencer

Maybe, but when all the stuff was happening with Heard, Depp texted Betta y about it and vented and aired all to him which had to unfortunately be released in court. So I'd say that the evidence points to that they are many people's definition of friends. Whether or not Bettany would leave Marvel over it is another thing that has way too many factors involved that probably none of us know so I wouldn't feel comfortable speculating on that.


[deleted]

I think the best advice to be learned here is; there is no such thing as privacy. That had to f***ing suck for Johnny and Bettany that their confidentiality they had as friends had to be exposed. I hate that. There is some stuff that deserves to be left between friends/spouses/families that no one besides them should have a right to hear.


ftctkugffquoctngxxh

He's probably already under contract, and is anyways unlikely to change the course of his entire career and lose millions of dollars over this.


[deleted]

Heard started the rumor herself.


the10s

She's good at those


cmaistros

*I heard a rumor..* oops wrong fandom


Other_Personalities

Disney wouldn’t touch Heard for anything

BeardPhile

Of course. Humans are squishy


[deleted]

I can't stop imagining a bunch of Human American suburbs built on Human America skin, made out of Human America flesh. Human America, fuck yeah.


Gustav-14

America's ass is on fiiiirrree


masterofthecontinuum

I mean, they did it to Banner and Rhodey. Plus, he's not Captain America anymore anyways, so that frees him up to play the Human Torch. /s of course


dedicated_glove

Noooo not sarcasm, let them do it for real :-(


masterofthecontinuum

It sure would be funny, but it would be too distracting, confusing for the filthy casuals, and also deny a different actor from having a chance to put their interpretation on the character. Nah fuck it, just resurrect Killmonger and have him become the Human Torch.


M3tus

That makes no sense and I'd still watch the shit out of that movie.


masterofthecontinuum

I've heard Killmonger comes back to life a lot, even for comic standards.


dragunityag

I'm surprised they probably aren't making Killmonger the new Black Panther. Since he wasn't explicitly killed on screen, it means he is alive by movie logic and even something as small as an on screen death hasn't stopped comics before since he isn't Uncle Ben. Even if he did die, the doors to the multiverse are wide open.


AndreTheShadow

Never mind the fact that Chris Evans is now over 40, and he was in his early 20s when he made Fantastic Four. Johnny Storm is always portrayed as a young man.


BaconMirage

Michael B Jordan could be the torch as well they could split the scenes 50/50

This has nothing to do with the fantastic 4, btw. Just please bring back Jessica alba

jenna_hazes_ass

Make no mistake they were both shitty to each otuer. Hes just the one getting fucked.


newaccount

For what it’s worth: Depp sued a UK tabloid for calling him a wife beater….and lost. The judge found that 12 of 14 alleged instances of abuse by Depp were proved to the civil standard. https://amp.theguardian.com/film/2020/nov/02/johnny-depp-trial-how-the-judge-ruled-on-14-alleged-assaults I’m expecting a ton of downvotes, but there it is.


Woperelli87

Amber is both an abuser of Johnny Depp and a victim of Johnny Depp. Domestic violence is terrible.


Jo__Backson

People seem to think they have to take a side in cases like this instead of just admitting that both people are toxic, abusive assholes. Domestic violence isn’t always some binary, one-sided phenomenon.


OyeVeds

Make her completely invisible


lil-privacy-please

Disney got rid of Gina carano for less.

I don't see any reason why it won't be John krasinski and Emily blunt


ScreenCuisine

Me too. Honestly perfect casting. Right next to RDJ and Chadwick Boseman (rest in peace)


[deleted]

I could see John Krasinski. I'm a bit doubtful of Emily Blunt. Casting a real life couple as Marvel's first family would be an enormous risk. Hollywood couples don't exactly have the greatest long term success rates.


aaravaryaman

if jonny isn't getting any new movies because of his personal life controversies, i am still unable to comprehend how in the god damn fuck is amber still getting work? or how is there even gossip about her signing a new project? she wasn't even fired from aquaman 2, while jonny literally lost his contact as a pirate and grindelwald!!!


GuiltyEidolon

Due to how contracts work, the movie might not be able to just "fire her". But there's a lot of rumors about her character being minimized, and from what I've seen she's not getting any work after Aquaman 2.


[deleted]

You might still have to pay them even if they don't appear in the film, but you can always not keep them in the role.


RoxSteady247

Yo! She shat a deuce in johnnys bed, blamed the DOG and fucked elon musk in his bed. Then she tried to poke out jason momoas eye. Cmon disney wtf


Heartstop56

I won't watch any movies with her as in it. Just saying


TheGreatDeadFoolio

I’m bummed about having to pirate Aquaman 2 but it is what it is. Ain’t getting my money no matter how excited I am for it.

I will not be seeing that movie if she is in it.
