So itās being reported that MoM should be wrapping up the reshoots that add a bunch of new cameos to the movie.
So I have a wish list of who I want to see.
Mainly these two :
I very strongly dislike the Fox X-Men for alot of things they did. I could rant about them for hours. But goddammit do I wanna see Michael Fassbenderās Magento again. (Especially if the rumours of Wanda being the villain are true..i wanna see this fight š)
As for Mr Fantastic? I love Reed. I love to hate Reed. Heās every bit that arrogant, smug, genius, morally questionable, absolute bastard that people think Tony and Stephen are, but amplified!

Iām not trying to be rude here but I donāt think you have a very good understanding of Reedās character; maybe thatās the conclusion you drew from the movies but Reed Richards has very rarely been arrogant in 616 comics; the times where he has been have resulted in consequences he feels very guilty over, or happened in event comics which are nortoriously awful for Reed characterisation.
as you can see from Fantastic Four vol 3 #60, Reed feels incredibly guilty over the actions that led to his familyās predicament. Itās something he beats himself up over constantly. Heās terribly aware of being all the things you claim he is, arrogant, smug, morally questionable, because heās been like that in the past and itās hurt the people he loves. And he tries every day to make up for it, because he feels the consequences so deeply. As Sue says in FFv1 #296, Reed keeps punishing himself over speficially what happened to Ben, heās so guilty over it.
And Reed has been repeatedly shown to be a deeply kind, loving individual, who sure may struggle to show that to his loved ones (as do I, as a fellow autist), but heās ultimately a good person who wants to help other people. Thereās many examples of this but one of the best comes from Marvel Knights #4 where Reed talks down a cancer patient down from suicide.
And later in #28, Reed keeps his promise and is there when Martin is dying. I wonāt post those panels because this is long enough but point is, Reed is not arrogant at all. Far from it. Sometimes he can come off that way but thatās part of what makes him a nuanced, interesting character. He certainly isnāt smug and he certainly isnāt morally questionable as you describe. At the very least, he isnāt more arrogant than Tony Stark. Not by a long shot.
