After Evans’ Cameo as Human Torch in Deadpool & Wolverine, Jessica Alba Hints at a Return as Sue Storm

As a die-hard Marvel fan who fondly remembers the early 2000s when the Fantastic Four graced our screens for the first time, Jessica Alba‘s desire to reprise her role as Sue Storm brings a wave of nostalgic excitement!


The newest addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), starring Deadpool and Wolverine, has been breaking box office records worldwide while delighting audiences everywhere. A major factor in the film’s triumph is its dedication to pleasing fans, particularly through the comeback of iconic live-action characters from the Marvel universe.

The film takes a look back at significant periods in Marvel’s live-action timeline, ranging from Wesley Snipes’ Blade to Jennifer Garner’s Elektra. A scene that particularly resonates with many viewers is Chris Evans’ appearance as the Human Torch from the earlier Fantastic Four movies.

Initially, the Fantastic Four movies received harsh criticism, but over time, they have become cherished and remembered fondly by fans. Despite the Marvel Cinematic Universe introducing a new group of actors for the Fantastic Four, the original cast members continue to express eagerness about reprising their roles.

There’s been talk that Ioan Gruffudd might take up the role of Mr. Fantastic once more, and it looks like Jessica Alba is also considering coming back as Sue Storm.

In a recent chat with Collider, Alba shared her excitement about potentially revisiting her character, Sue Storm, within the Marvel universe once more.

She’s somewhat iconic. It feels like nearly two decades have passed since then. Such a long time, you know. I greatly enjoyed working on the Marvel films, and I’m an enthusiast of Disney too. I can’t wait to watch it. My children are fans as well, so being part of that world anytime would be a dream come true for me.

In the movies Fantastic Four, released in 2005 and 2007, Jessica Alba played Sue Storm. Although these films garnered a mix of opinions, Alba’s portrayal of the character was generally praised by critics.

Additionally, Alba offered a few suggestions to Vanessa Kirby, the actress chosen to portray Sue Storm in the forthcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe remake.

Experience joy and cherish every instant… The supporters were truly exceptional! One could argue that it was among the most memorable periods in my life, traveling across the globe and encountering countless individuals who share an ardent affection for The Fantastic Four, adore these graphic novels, and resonate with these narratives.

To my perspective, interacting with a multitude of diverse individuals, bringing happiness to them, is undoubtedly the most significant aspect for any actor fortunate enough to portray such captivating characters. I’d advise her to simply enjoy herself and savor every moment.
