Andre Braugher to play general in FANTASTIC FOUR sequel

I hope this military general isn't named "Fury". That would kind of suck.

I never thought of that ponyboy, but it could happen "and would suck". I'm not sure but I think shield is seperate from the military though.

let me ask why it would suck??

If it has anything to do with His skin color. Fury is black In the Ultimate Marvel universe. Now if it has nothing to do with race, then it does suck if he was Fury, because of his acting talent.. hes a good actor, I'll give him that.. however I cant see that guy playing Fury. What am I saying? If "the Hoff" can pull of playing Fury, then any body can right?
:(

But like you to said.. I hope its not Fury.. I'm already mad we wont see galaticus (MAYBE till the end of the movie) and the FF movie already rubbed me wrong with how they went with DOOM (my favorite Marvel villain).....

love this guy!! I AM SERIOUS!! But he blew off a killer role on ER to do this comic book movie. I hope its worth it Andre!! Bye Bye Emmy hello shlockie comic book movie! Maybe it will be worth 10 bucks to see the greatest tv actor ever.

Braugher is a terrific actor, and I hope the role he's landed in FF2 is worth him blowing off a guest-starring role on ER. Those ER roles have put a lot of actors in the spotlight and even garnered a few awards and nominations, so I hope he's got a meaty role in FF2. I doubt he'll play Fury though, because I thought I read somewhere that they were developing a Shield/Fury movie to be produced under the Marvel banner. Of course, they may have cast Braugher in the role of a general to see how the public would react and gauge the excitement for a possible Fury film.

#3 - I'm sure ponyboy isn't referring to his race, as he too is black. I think. If I'm on the same page as he is, I'm feeling it would suck because I don't want to see Fury in a movie convoluted with enough Marvel characters. You can't really explore his back story so why make him a popular Marvel character. Since he is just another supporting character with no background story, why make him Fury? It would be just as practical to make him Gen. John Doe. Or should I say Gen. Jamal Doe. He is just a supporting character, so there isn't a need to make him Fury.

Also, I like Braugher. Good actor.

Not sure why it repeated my line.

I seriously doubt that they'll have Fury in it at all, simply because Nick Fury is one of the separate properties to which Marvel got the rights to produce their own movies. That's the only thing that sucks about Marvel movies. With their properties all over the place, they can't have a whole lot of crossing over characters. And what pisses me off about DC is that while AOL Time Warner has the rights to all of DC comics, a couple years ago they passed on doing a "World's Finest" movie because they "didn't want to cross over their franchises." Personally, I think I "World's Finest" movie directed by Wolfgang Peterson (Das Boot, In the Line of Fire, The Perfect Storm) could have been really good.

Anyway, point being, as far as I know, Fox has the rights for all Marvel mutant titles (they've even gone to court over that "Mutant X" TV show) and the Fantastic Four, but now Marvel has the rights to the Avengers, Captain America, Dr. Strange, and Nick Fury (among others.)

#7, it probably repeated that because the posting system agrees with you that he's a good actor. I think having anyone as Fury would suck for the FF film, because he just doesn't belong here. This movie's universe is different than Daredevil's and the Punisher's. Fury would be more at home in that style of movie - gritty and violent. FF is more lighthearted & fun. Like Spider-Man without the emotional depth.

ER is still on television? hahaha
