Following Evans’ Cameo as Human Torch in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Now Jessica Alba Wants to Return as Well

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is the most recent MCU installment and the movie keeps breaking box office records and entertaining fans worldwide. Much of the movie’s success can be attributed to fan service, as you know the movie marked the return of Marvel’s live-action legacy characters.

From Wesley Snipes’ Blade to Garner as Elektra, we’ve truly revisited all important phases of Marvel live-action adaptions. According to many, the best by far was Evans’ cameo as Human Torch, from the original ‘Fantastic Four’ movies.

The original ‘Fantastic Four’ movies were notably panned by critics, but now looking back, fans look at them with endearment and nostalgia. The MCU currently has a new Fantastic Four cast, but that doesn’t stop the former cast from returning.

We’ve already covered rumors that Ioan Gruffudd might return as Mr. Fantastic, but it seems that Jessica Alba would like to reprise her role of Sue Storm as well.

Alba recently sat down with Collider and commented how she would very much like to return to Sue Storm and the Marvel universe in general:

She’s kind of a legend. It was like 20 years ago. That was a long time ago. I loved doing the Marvel movies, and I’m a big fan of Disney also. I will be watching. My kids are fans as well, so I would love to be part of that universe any time.

Jessica Alba played Sue Storm in two ‘Fantastic Four’ films released in 2005 and 2007. Alba’s portrayal of the character was well-received even if the movies weren’t.

The actress also had a few tips for Vanessa Kirby who is set to portray the character in the upcoming MCU reboot:

just have fun and soak in the moments. […]The fans are so amazing, It was probably one of the best times of my life, going around the world and meeting all of the people that just love The Fantastic Four and love these comic books and can relate to these stories.

That, to me, and to be able to meet so many different people that you can touch and bring joy to them, I would say that’s first and foremost for anyone who gets the honor of playing one of these awesome characters. So I’d tell her to just have fun and soak in the moments.
