We now have the arch nemesis in the new Fantastic Four movie. Toby Kebbell has officially been cast as Dr. Doom in the new Fantastic Four reboot, as the 31 year-old joins the other young cast in the comic book movie. There was this pretty interesting rumor that this reboot was going to see another random change in the Fantastic Four lineup, by casting a female for the Dr. Doom character. Given the backlash they have already endured with the cast of the team of heroes, nice decision on not doing that.
Kebbell is not a well-known actor by all means, but I think that is somewhat what they are going for with this reboot. The only flick I believe I have seen him in was Guy Ritchie’s RocknRolla, which he did very well in, and he should do okay as this villain. Fantastic Four will hit theaters June 19th, 2015, so let me know your thoughts on Kebbell being Dr. Doom.
