Ebon Moss-Bachrach took to “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” to talk about his recent casting in Marvel’s upcoming “The Fantastic Four” film — revealing that his character Ben Grimm (aka the Thing) will be created using motion capture rather than a physical suit.
“In the past, I think they’ve done a suit. Michael Chiklis wore a suit that apparently was really uncomfortable, and it’s kind of… we’re past that,” Moss-Bachrach said. “It’s a little kind of cosplay, kind of amateur that kind of stuff now with the technology we have.”
Kimmel also pressed Moss-Bachrach to confirm if the recent teaser poster released by Marvel — which unveiled Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards (aka Mr. Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm (aka the Invisible Woman), Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm (aka the Human Torch) and Moss-Bachrach as the Thing — meant that the film would be set in the 1960s.
To fans’ disappointment, Moss-Bachrach only quipped that the poster did, in fact, look like it was ’60s themed: “That image does seem to be ’60s themed.”
