Reg E. Cathey Joins Fantastic Four Reboot

The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that actor Reg E. Cathey (House of Cards) has joined the cast of Josh Trank's Fantastic Four. He will be playing the role of Sue and Johnny Storm's father Dr. Storm. Cathey has worked with both the actors playing his children, Michael B. Jordan (The Wire) and Kate Mara (House of Cards), previously on various TV projects. So playing their father should be a simple transition for the character actor. It's great to see Frank Underwood's main man Freddy getting some love. Maybe Cathey will channel his Freddy into Dr. Storm and BBQ up some ribs for Reed and the gang.
