Just in time too, since filming started <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nola.com\/movies\/index.ssf\/2014\/05\/fantastic_four_reboot_begins_f.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a few days ago<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Cathey has worked with Michael B. Jordan and Kate Mara (Johnny and Sue Storm, respectively), so adapting into a role as their on-screen father shouldn&#8217;t be too difficult for the seasoned actor.<\/p>\n<p>The addition of Dr. Storm into the story does change things a bit, as the character is largely unnecessary for the classic Fantastic Four origin story. He is, however, an important character in the\u00a0<em>Ultimate Fantastic Four<\/em> storyline, so it&#8217;s possible that director Josh Trank will be following the &#8216;Ultimate&#8217; version. This theory is further supported by the fact that Dr. Doom (Toby Kebbell) and Moleman (Tim Blake Nelson) will be the main villains in the movie, which was also the case in the comicbook version.<\/p>\n<p>Miles Teller and Jamie Bell fill out the quintessential quartet as Reed Richards and Ben Grimm. The film is set for a June 19, 2015 release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nThe Fantastic Four reboot has been a bit of a crazy roller-coaster ride of a movie; they&#8217;ve gone through multiple&hellip;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=12237\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;Fantastic Four Reboot Adds Talent from &#8216;The Wire&#8217; for Dr. Storm&rdquo;<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":12239,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[6],"tags":[223,258,260,571],"class_list":["post-12237","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-film-tv","tag-dr-storm","tag-fantastic-4","tag-fantastic-four-reboot","tag-reg-e-cathey","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Fantastic Four Reboot Adds Talent from &#039;The Wire&#039; for Dr. Storm - The Cultured Nerd<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=12237\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Fantastic Four Reboot Adds Talent from &#039;The Wire&#039; for Dr. Storm - The Cultured Nerd\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Fantastic Four reboot has been a bit of a crazy roller-coaster ride of a movie; they&#8217;ve gone through multiple&hellip; Continue reading &ldquo;Fantastic Four Reboot Adds Talent from &#8216;The Wire&#8217; for Dr. Storm&rdquo;&hellip;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?p=12237\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"The Cultured Nerd\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/theculturednerd\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2014-05-09T01:23:19+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Andrew Reinemann\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@Rhino_Man\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@theculturednerd\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Andrew Reinemann\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=12237#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=12237\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Andrew Reinemann\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/7727aa794d484eec8ac32fb62eedf730\"},\"headline\":\"Fantastic Four Reboot Adds Talent from &#8216;The Wire&#8217; for Dr. Storm\",\"datePublished\":\"2014-05-09T01:23:19+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=12237\"},\"wordCount\":236,\"commentCount\":0,\"publisher\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/#organization\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/theculturednerd.org\\\/?p=12237#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"\",\"keywords\":[\"Dr. Storm\",\"fantastic 4\",\"Fantastic Four reboot\",\"Reg E.
