Kevin Feige reportedly pushed for Pedro Pascal’s casting in Fantastic Four to promote diversity
Actors from Game of Thrones have been pouring into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which is known for its intricate storytelling and ability to bring beloved comic book characters to life on screen. Pedro Pascal, a Thrones alum who has ruled 2023 with shows like The Last of Us and The Mandalorian, might be the latest to enter the highly popular MCU as Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic.
Pedro Pascal was added to the MCU to make it less “white”
No doubt, Pascal has proved his mettle as an esteemed performer in the Hollywood industry, however, his reported casting might have been the result of another factor. According to industry insider Jeff Sneider, before Pascal was revealed as a possible choice to play Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, MCU head Kevin Feige was concerned that the ensemble of Marvel Studios’ upcoming Fantastic Four film would be “way too white.”
