I can understand your trepidations given how the previous 3x Fantastic 4 movies have been major flops in terms of Critic Response & Fan Response.
Hopefully Disney will handle it correctly. I do want it to be a good movie and hopefully Disney understands how to handle the Fantastic Four.
That would give hope to when they eventually will tackle the rest of the Marvel IP that they've recovered from 20th Century FOX like X-Men.
Attractive redhead of a certain age who’s in a popular show. Pretty much the only criteria. It’s how we got Sophie Turner.
None of those people were holding flags in the original photo, that's why some of the grips are so odd. Most of them were pointing. Mr 4 fingers had his index finger shopped out when they stuck the flagpole in his hand.
Absolutely.
That all aside, Sadie Sink proved the last season of Stranger Things that she has a lot of raw talent and I've been hoping she would get opportunities to show off that potential. I'm still mad she didn't get any kind of recognition for her performance in that season.
I'll have to take your word for it, because I don't know any of them. (And they all look so young to me! Couldn't be that I'm getting older....
)
So I was doing some Googling & apparently, beyond the Spider-Man Franchise & his cast of characters that belong to Sony right now. The Hulk & Namor Characters / IP are owned by Universal Studios for Solo Film release rights.
So anytime we see "Hulk & Namor" in a Marvel movie, they have to be paired with other characters in their respective movies.
We'll never get to see Disney have solo "Hulk & Namor" movies until Universal is willing to sell the rights back to Disney.
I guess we're still dealing with the fall-out of the previous person who decided to sell off Marvel Character/IP rights to various Movie studios, even today.
So the reason you see Marvel only using "Hulk" with other characters / Marvel Movies is because of the complication due to Universal owning Hulk & Namor.

the "put GOT people in everything" era
Personally, it's not necessarily the identity of the actor playing Banner that makes TIH such a great movie; it's the story, tone, theme, and structure.
Edward Norton is excellent, yes, but if you swapped him out for Ruffalo but left everything else the same, I think it would still have been a phenomenal movie.
Incidentally and as an aside, I didn't quite realize how much I missed Liv Tyler's Betty Ross until my rewatch, or how much I'm looking forward to her being in Brave New World; here's hoping her return goes better than Natalie Portman's as Jane Foster did, because I don't think I can handle another 'bring the actress back just to kill off the character' situation.

Fun Trek connection with the Hulk: The actress who played Odona of Gideon in "The Mark of Gideon(TOS)" is in this episode of the old CBS series.
Didn't the guy who played Namor have sexual allegations against him? I don't know the details but I get the feeling we're never seeing Namor again.
I only know Sink, from Stranger Things. Never heard of the other two. They look like the comic characters for the most part.I'll have to take your word for it, because I don't know any of them. (And they all look so young to me! Couldn't be that I'm getting older....
The X-Men should be young. Especially Kitty, who was like fourteen when she joined. The early comics took place at a prep school after all.
According to Wikipedia's article on Tenoch Huerta:
The actor maintains his innocence, it's one musician/activist making allegations against him.
So far nobody has brought anything to the government for Judicial Proceedings to go ahead with.
No one's ever explicitly confirmed the contracts never changed, but if everything went according to those original contracts Universal's rights to the Hulk should've expired in 2023. It has been explicitly confirmed that Universal's rights to TIH itself have expired so that's a good sign at least.
The situation around Namor's rights has never been clear at all, unfortunately.
There were dozens of Trek guests in the Bixby/Ferrigno Hulk, from every live-action Trek series from TOS to ENT, and at least one from the movies (Kim Cattrall). They include both the actors who did the Hulk's voice, Ted Cassidy (also the narrator) and Charles Napier. There's some overlap of writers, producers, and directors too.
And the bad news?
