Recent rumors suggest that the Marvel Cinematic Universe is contemplating introducing Franklin Richards in its forthcoming film, The Fantastic Four.
While some may believe it is a promising move, there are concerns about the potential drawbacks of unleashing Franklin Richards in the MCU.
From the extent of his powers to the intricacies of his backstory, skepticism abounds regarding the decision to introduce him to the cinematic universe.
Why the MCU Should Think Twice About Introducing Franklin Richards
While excitement mounts among fans, some caution against the rumored introduction of Franklin Richards to the MCU. They argue it could be a risky move.
Here’s the gist: If the MCU were to introduce Franklin Richards, it might be safer to portray him as a child, raised by Reed Richards (played by Pedro Pascal) and Sue Storm. This could add emotional depth to the Fantastic Four reboot.
However, bringing in an adult Franklin Richards could be problematic due to his immense powers, which surpasses even major villains like Galactus.
The decision ultimately rests with Marvel Studios. Matt Shakman‘s Fantastic Four” is set for release on July 25, 2025, in U.S. theaters.
