The Fantastic Four Casts Paul Walter Hauser In The MCU Movie"s First Mystery Role
Summary
As confirmed by Deadline, actor Paul Walter Hauser has been cast in Matt Shakman's The Fantastic Four. Which Marvel character Hauser is playing is yet to be revealed, though the actor's previous roles could point to a few possible Marvel figures. Hauser is the sixth actor to join The Fantastic Four after Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Joseph Quinn, and Julia Garner, which suggests that he will play a sizable role in the MCU movie.
Who Is Paul Walter Hauser And Who He Could Be Playing In The Fantastic Four The Actor's MCU Role Is Currently Undisclosed Close Paul Walter Hauser is best known for Cobra Kai, where he has played the immature martial artist Raymond Porter a.k.a. Stingray in seasons 2 through 5. Hauser also appeared in the 2022 true crime miniseries Black Bird as serial killer Larry Hall; in 2021's Cruella as the titular villain's bumbling henchman Horace, and in the 2018 dramedy BlackKklansman as the comically evil Ivanhoe. Paul Walter Hauser's credits also include the famous sitcoms Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, and Community.
Hauser's comedic skills and experience in the comedy genre may have earned him the role of the Fantastic Four's robot assistant HERBIE.
While Paul Walter Hauser's MCU role in The Fantastic Four remains unconfirmed, the fact that his casting was announced so close to the movie's main cast suggests he will play a character who's intimate with Marvel's First Family. Hauser's comedic skills and experience in the comedy genre may have earned him the role of the Fantastic Four's robot assistant HERBIE. Recently, Ricky Gervais responded cheekily to rumors that Marvel was looking to cast a comedian in this role, which supports this idea.
Hauser is also expanding his filmography in the comedy genre with the upcoming The Naked Gun reboot starring Liam Neeson, and will voice the character Embarrassment in Pixar's Inside Out 2. These two roles more than support the theory that Paul Walter Hauser is voicing HERBIE in The Fantastic Four. However, Hauser's MCU role will only be officially confirmed by Marvel Studios as more news about The Fantastic Four come to light in the following months.
