Fantastic Four

The Fantastic Four is an internationally-renowned group of superhuman champions (often dubbed the world's premiere super hero team or the first family of super heroes) based in New York City and dedicated to the betterment of the world through scientific discovery and defense against evil. Note: Black guy for Reed isn't a necessity but I think it's likely seeing as we already know Nathaniel will be played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II.
