The Fantastic Four reboot has lined up Jamie Bell, Kate Mara and Miles Teller.

The actors have joined Michael B Jordan in the process of closing deals for 20th Century Fox's superhero movie, according to The Wrap.


Bell is in line to play Ben Grimm/The Thing, with Mara as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman and Teller as Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic.

Jordan has been assumed for the role of the Human Torch for some time, though has remained cagey about confirming his involvement.

This is the first time Bell's name has been attached to the reboot, although sources claim a deal is yet to be finalised.
