Alexandra Daddario is in the running to be The Fantastic Four’s Sue Storm.
News and rumors for Marvel Studios’ Fantastic Four have been building up. First, they confirmed Matt Shakman as the director. In addition, the writing duo Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer is on board.
Talk has been going around that John Krasinski will return as Reed Richards. This is especially because Krasinski took the role of Mister Fantastic in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. But, as we wait for an official confirmation, we wonder who Marvel Studios would cast as the other FF members.

In a report from DeuxMoi (via Everything Always), Alexandria Daddario and her brother Matthew Daddario could be MCU’s Sue and Johnny Storm. DeuxMoi is an Instagram account that focuses on fashion and celebrity news. Note that people are not certain if this account verifies their content. More importantly, DeuxMoi has produced mixed results. Some reports get correct information, while others are completely untrue. Because of that, you have to take this news with a grain of salt.
Alexandria Daddario has never left the spotlight. Ever since she got the role of Annabeth Chase in Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, she has been active in the industry. More recently, she has been getting more main roles with The White Lotus and Why Women Kill.
Daddario is an actress with a broad range of talent. Indeed, she’s proven herself time and time again.
Like many actors, Daddario is keen on getting into the MCU. Daddario has shown her interest in the franchise years ago. She was one of the actresses that the production considered for Netflix’ Jessica Jones. She was already close to getting the role. In the final leg, she tied with Krysten Ritter. Eventually, Ritter landed the role.

Many fans wanted Emily Blunt to take the role. Although, from what we understand, Blunt is not really interested in long-term commitments that franchises will require. There are several actresses that are rumored for the role. However, to hear Daddario belonging to this list is not much of a surprise. For sure there are several actors trying to work with Marvel Studios.
We will learn about who will take the roles of Marvel’s first family eventually. Considering we already have a director and writers now. We are already hearing more about the remaining Phase Five films like Thunderbolts and Captain America: New World Order. So, it’s not far off that we may hear some more solid news in the coming months.
