Marvel has a new Invisible Woman, and the fans of Netflix’s hit historical drama series might know her quite well.
The Fantastic Four is finally getting a movie just as fantastic that it deserved all along, and once again Marvel’s adaptation of the famous comic book features a whole list of big Hollywood names.
Led by Game of Thrones and The Last of Us’ Pedro Pascal as new Mister Fantastic, The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces a completely renovated team of four superheroes, including a different Invisible Woman and wife to Pascal’s Reed Richards.
