Now this is interesting. Apparently Jessica Alba has decided not to participate in the filming of Fantastic Four 2. The reason I find this so interesting is because I was under the impression that the whole cast was contracted for 3 films (remember, that doesn’t mean there will be 3 movies… it just means that the cast are contractually obligated to appear in the next films if called upon by the producers).
From all accounts Michael Chiklis, Ioan Gruffud, Chris Evans and Julian McMahon are all on board for the sequel. Now, I can understand why Alba may not WANT to do a Fantastic Four 2… but how does she have a choice? Did the producers not get her to sign the same contract the other stars did? Was I mistaken about the contract in the first place?
Meh, who cares I guess. As much as I like Jessica Alba… the reality is that she really wasn’t all that great in the movie and could easily be replaced. I’m just confused about how she can walk away. Any of you guys have thoughts or info on this?
