I’m sure we’ve all had pretty high expectations for the look of Michael Chiklis as The Thing in the upcoming Fantastic Four movie. We even saw an early conceptual sculpt of a possible proposed costume for the actor. But, I’m sure we’ve all seen the new pics of Michael Chiklis on the set, in full costume. It’s much more of a sleek, slim, human hugging figure. Its not the bulky, rocky, craggy Thing we were hoping to see. Although, it does look like a pretty interesting costume.
I, personally, am a tad disappointed to see them go this route with the look and feel of Michael Chiklis’ Thing. Please, no pun intended. I would have much rather seen the rocky mountain that we are all familiar with. But, I supposed this look will suffice as long as the movie doesn’t suck. Also, just as long as there are no visible styrofoam ‘creases’ in the joints of the Thing’s limbs. let’s see how far they can successfully go with this flick. I know i’m interested to see what they do.
