Fantastic Four star Joseph Quinn hasn’t reached out to former Human Torch actors Chris Evans and Michael B. Jordan.

“I haven’t gotten in touch with them – maybe I should. It’s important to claim these opportunities as your own,” Quinn toldMen’s Health. “I think they both did incredible jobs, and I’m definitely aware of how much this role means to a lot of people, and how successful they were in portraying him. I think it’s important to come at this with reverence for the people that have played it before, but an intention to make it one’s own. We’ll see.”

Quinn plays Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch in the upcoming movie, which officially introduces the Fantastic Four into the MCU. The cast includes Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm aka The Human Torch, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm aka The Thing, Julia Garner as Silver Surfer, andRalph Ineson as Galactus.
