The article discusses Vanessa Kirby's official casting as Sue Storm (Invisible Woman) in Marvel Studios' upcoming Fantastic Four movie. Kirby expressed her excitement about joining the MCU, calling it an "honor" and stating she feels like they are taking the "first steps" into this massive universe.

She joins the previously announced main cast: Pedro Pascal (Reed Richards), Joseph Quinn (Johnny Storm), and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Ben Grimm/The Thing).

The article highlights the importance and complexity of the Sue Storm character, often seen as the heart and powerhouse of the team. It also delves into speculation about future character arcs, specifically mentioning Sue Storm's darker transformation into the villain Malice from the comics. While not confirmed for the first film, the article suggests this is a rich storyline Kirby could potentially explore later, adding significant depth to her portrayal beyond the typical superheroine role.

The piece touches upon the general excitement for the film, fueled partly by the retro aesthetic hinted at in the casting announcement, and positions Kirby's casting as a key element in bringing Marvel's First Family back to the big screen.
