I hope he is still Reed Richards in the MCU... he needs a better writing. and an actual direction (I'm not counting Sam Raimi, because Krasinski's scenes were done AFTER production and put in at the last minute), so I think real direction would help.

If he isn’t the main 616 Reed, maybe they could get him back as another variant in Secret Wars.

Did he let it slip accidentally? After referencing the Jim villain piece he said "That's why I'm doing Fantastic 4, to balance it out".

If Jason Segel as The Thing rumors are true, I feel like Krasinski is almost definitely staying as Reed Richards.

I normally don't like to read too much into these things but he was playing it pretty coy here. Instead of just being like "Idk man, that was a fun cameo to do and we'll see what happens" he gave very short answers and it seemed like he didn't want to say something wrong.

Maybe he's just scared that Feige will come after him lol.

I get that he’s not allowed to say anything but God, it’s been two months of him being coy about it.

The longer this lasts and if he ends up not being Reed, that will be really disappointing.

That being said, I enjoyed watching him im the interview because he really is so charismatic. I do hope Marvel makes use of him again.

Good chance he will be the MCU's Reed. MCU seems to be sticking with the same variants due to popularity: Kang, Peggy, Maria, Black Bolt, Strange, even the TVA.(DD and JJ can probably be included even though they aren't variants)

You have some not-exceptions like Loki, and the Spider-men but even they were brought back due to their popularity..

I could see Ioan and Miles being among of the Council of Reeds, maybe even Miles as "The Maker"

John is a great actor and a very popular choice, he will do well as Reed.

RDJ was 42 when he was cast so chill out about the age.

The fact that he played coy about it has changed my opinion, I think he’s gonna be Reed. Prior to this I would’ve said it wasn’t gonna be him, based on what we know.

But there’s no way he would be so coy and not answer anything about it if he wasn’t involved and knew he was a one time thing.

There’s something innately exciting about his casting as Reed to me, even if it’s a little ‘fan casty’.

-Thank you for coming back to the show. It's nice to see you in person. -It's very exciting. Yes, you're back! -You look good, buddy. -You've been back for a while but I'm back with you. So now we can start. -Now we are back. -Now the show is back. -I'm seeing you up on the big screen. -Oh. -I saw you in "Doctor Strange." -Yes. -You had a -- [ Audience cheers ] Right? Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. We all saw that. -But three people are like, "spoiler alert." Like, super bummed. -Yeah. Three people plug your ears. But you're in it for a little bit. -How dare you. It was a big moment for me. -No, sorry. -It was a big moment for me, but that's fine, yeah. Okay. -But I mean -- but a little bit of the magic from the movie was from your scenes. -That's right, yes. No, I know, yes. -But everyone freaked out. You were Reed Richards from Fantastic Four. -Yes. -Mr. Fantastic. -I was. -We all freaked out. The audience I was in, everyone was like, "Whaaat?" -Thank you. -"We love this!" -I actually asked. I called and I was like, "Did they go, 'Whaaaa?'" -Yes. -And they said yes. -We all did. -Yes, they said yeah. -Comic-Con, they just announced all these new movies and they announced that there's going to be a Fantastic Four movie. You're not allowed to say anything. -Nope. -I'm not allowed to really ask you. -Right. -But... [ Laughter ] You think? [ Laughter ] You think? -Do you think? -Do you think? Could one think? Could one think? -Seriously, what have you heard? I need to know. [ Laughter ] -They don't tell you anything? -They don't tell you anything, no. -Until right before you're about to do it. -That's right. -And there's also a rumor that your wife, Emily Blunt, will play Sue Storm. -Oh. [ Audience ohs ] You think? [ Cheers and applause ] You think? -Jimmy, I'm going to tell you on your show... -Oh! -It's -- -Oh, my gosh. Someone killed him right now. Could we get a medic? That's acting right there. -No, it's actually a Marvel dart. -There's a guy walking around. -Yeah, exactly. -I know you're a great actor, but you're also a great writer and director. -Thank you. -You've been busy, busy, busy. -I got to come here more often. This is boosting my personality. -No, but you just finished writing and I think you're about to direct a movie called "Imaginary Friends"? -Yes, it's called "If," and it's with Mr. Ryan Reynolds. [ Cheers and applause ] He's an indie guy, and this unbelievable actress named Cailey Fleming. If anybody watches "The Walking Dead," she's on "Walking Dead," yeah. [ Cheers and applause ] And it's official. Emily met her, saw her, and was like, "She's the best actress ever."So that's it. It's done. It's over. -That's it? That is the best actress? -That's it. We got best actress on the planet. -But you're reuniting with Steve Carell. -Yeah. I should have started with this is "The Office" reunion movie. [ Cheers and applause ] -This is "The Office" reunion movie. -Yes. -Wow, no, it's not that at all. -Nope, it's not, no. -Well, what is "If"? What is "Imaginary Friends?" -"If" is basically a movie about imaginary friends. And yes, they are these adorable, fun ideas that kids have, but really, they are also time capsules for all of our ambitions, our dreams, our hopes when we're kids. So the movie is about what if we could tap back into that? -Ah, I love it. I love the way you think, bud. -Aw. Aww. It's a horror movie. [ Laughter ] -No, it is not a horror -- It's a nice -- -It's terrifying. -There was something that was going around the Internet. I just wanted to ask you about this. -The Internet is always right. -Thank you. It says, "'The Office' -- Is Jim really the villain?" [ Laughter ] -Wait, what, did you make that up? -No, I did not make it up. We all decided -- -It's on a card. -Yeah, I made the card. I made the card, but we all voted. -What? -93% agree with this. [ Laughter ] -Guys, we were doing so well. -Did you manipulate Pam? From the beginning? -When you ask it like that, it makes me uncomfortable. -Yeah, it's true, I've never done that before. -"Did you manipulate Pam?" [ Laughter ] -[ Funny voice ] Did you manipulate Pam? [ Normal voice ] I don't even know what voice I was doing, I'm sorry. -Can you imagine if that's what it was? -[ Funny voice ] What, my voice? [ Laughter ] John Krasinski, could you talk about Pam? [ Laughter ] Please. -Were you at Comic-Con? -Please talk about Pam. [ Laughter ] We'd love it told. -You're getting progressively more British. [ Laughter ] -We want to know about Pam. -The fear in your eyes as the voice took over. -[ Normal voice ] That's the best acting I've ever done. I don't know why -- Why would anyone do this? Jim is one of the most loveable characters and funny characters in the world. This is so not true. This is garbage. -Well, they're on to me because I played it as a supervillain. [ Laughter ] That's why I did "Fantastic Four," to balance it out. I had already done the villain. -Let's talk about "Super-Pets." This is a big deal. You get to voice Superman. -Yes. -Is this one of those things, the same as the Marvel thing, they call up, who is it? Kevin? -Kevin Feige's from Marvel, yeah. -He calls you up and he's like [Deep voice] "Hey." [ Laughter ] John, how you doing, buddy? Hey, it's me, Kevin Feige." -Can you take a TV time-out? We got to talk about this. -"It's Kevin Feige. It's Kevin Feige." -Oh, no, now it's Will Arnett. [ Laughter ] -Hey, it's Will. -Hey, man. -Hey, man. Hey, man. Hey, man. You want to do it? -Hey, man, do you want to be Mr. Fantastic? [ Laughter ] -Hey, man. -Yeah. -You don't? Oh, you don't? Oh, you don't want to be Mr. Fantastic? Oh, you don't? Oh, really? -Sean will do it. -Oh, you want to be Superman? Yeah, you should go to DC. Go do DC. -Do DC. [ Laughter ] [ Cheers and applause ] -None of that is useable. -[ Normal voice ] We have to air it. We have to air it. -If only for Will. -We have to air it just for Will. But then you get to do this. Dude, you get to play Superman. It's unbelievable. And this is like a great movie the whole family will love. It's you, Kevin Hart, Dwayne Johnson. -Yes. -The cast is insane. It's super funny. But you get to play Superman, and then kind of your pets have to save the world. -Yes, which, at first, I was really excited to play Superman until they made my dog bigger than me and somehow more handsome? It's played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, by the way, who called and was like, "Hey, will you do 'Super-Pets'? Make the dog cooler. Oh, it's a yes? Okay, great. Perfect." -And have you taken your daughters to see this? -They loved it. It was -- They were laughing very, very hard. I think up until now they didn't believe I actually was in the business. 'Cause they've never seen anything I've done. So it's like, "Quiet Place," not yet. "Jack Ryan," things like that, nope. -And this is the perfect movie to take them to see. -They were like, "Wow, you're not an accountant." [ Laughter ] -I want to show everyone a clip. Here's John Krasinski as Superman in "DC League of Super-Pets." Take a look at this. -From Metropolis, I'm Lois Lane. -Hey, Lois! I know you like these, so I got you one from actual Paris. I don't know why I said it like that. -And I got you one of these from 43rd Street, which is like a full three blocks out of my way. -During rush hour? Wow, that's like me flying to Mars. -What, you can fly? I always thought the cape was just a cute accessory. -Oh, so you think I'm cute? -I said the cape was cute. -[ Sighs ] You think I'm cute. -Are we licking faces right now? Because if we're licking faces, I got to get in on -- [ Barking ] -Yeah, come on. -Yeah! [ Cheers and applause ] -John Krasinski, everybody! "DC League of Super-Pets" hits theaters Friday. We'll be right back with Rege-Jean Page. Stick around.
