Julia Garner’s Silver Surfer Role Reportedly To Be Short-lived in the MCU Being Described as “one and done”

Several months ago it was revealed that MCU’s Silver Surfer will be Julia Garner. Julia will be portraying Shalla-Bal, Norrin’s love interest in the comics, but there is a reality in which Shalla serves as the Herald of Galactus as well, Sunglow.

The reactions to Julia Garner’s casting were extremely polarizing with a good part of the community feeling that genderswapping Silver Surfer, whom 99% of people associate with being male, is extremely disrespectful to the character’s legacy. The second part of the fandom however feels that other versions of Silver Surfer – notably female ones, should get their moment of glory.

‘Fantastic Four’ is about to enter production soon, and more and more details regarding the movie itself are leaking through various industry insiders and scoopers. One such recent rumor was brought to attention through Cosmic Circus’ Alex Perez who claims that Julia Garner’s role in the MCU most likely won’t lead to a tenure, as the role is described as “one and done.”

If true, this isn’t surprising at all, Feige already confirmed that ‘Fantastic Four’ will take place in an alternate reality, meaning that MCU’s true Silver Surfer won’t debut until later, and judging by Perez’s comments it won’t be Julia Garner.
