Jessica Alba Spills FF2 Details

Yes my friends, it's true. We are drawing close to the start of Fantastic Four 2, which is probably good since we're now nearing the end of X-Men 3 news. Yours truly personally loves the Four even more than the X, and is desperate for a worthwhile film this time around. Jessica Alba says filming starts in August, and she shares a few plot details as well. According to Alba the film will deal with the Four discovering they are not the only ones who have inherited super powers (how they've lived in the Marvel universe for more than 5 seconds without realizing this is beyond me, but whatever). Alba also confirms the existence of the Silver Surfer as both hero and villain, which certainly means Galactus is waiting on the horizon for possible sequel opportunities. She further said another villain will enter the picture, and her character (Sue Storm, the Invisible Woman) will find herself in a love triangle. As a final thought, she offers the tease of her character using some manner of ability that hasn't been disclosed yet.Okay, new villain and Invisible Woman love triangle? I don't know about you, but this certainly sounds like the Atlantian to me. Good old Namor was once hopeful of getting his own flick ... maybe they're using this to test the waters (ha-ha)? It would make perfect sense to introduce him via the Four, as he has a long and rich history with title. Who wants to bet (if he is in fact in the movie) he ends up helping the Four despite his desire not to, and he and Reed are forced to grudgingly respect each other and shake hands?

More Jessica Alba and less Dr. Christian "Doom" Troy in the sequel, I hope.

Galactus, the Surfer, and Namor all in the same flick? Sounds pretty awesome. At least I hope it's Namor. It would be a good intro for his flick. I don't know the full FF history so I don't know if there was anyone else she might have been "tempted" by. And who could the other super powered people be? Frightful Four? Maybe it could be that they mention Spidy or Daredevil or the X-Men in a news report or have a copy of the Bugle laying around. Then again, that could all be put down by rights issues...

That would be freaking brilliant if FF2 contained both Namor and Silver Surfer! Then we're halfway to a Defenders movie!!!! All we need now is a real Doctor Strange movie.
