If they made a rap Fantastic Four movie, who would you cast?

Going by the trailer, the new Fantastic Four movie looks terrible - miscast, dumbed down, unfaithful to the comic books and obsessed with fx over anything else.

The first mistake they made was not casting MF Doom as the villain. That's just self-evident. But going from there, let's say someone talked the studio system into making a rap musical of Fantastic Four. Who would you cast? How much better would it be than the real movie?

The Thing = Killer Mike

Mike Ladd as Mr. Fantastic.

And Chuck D as Dr. Doom, perhaps. And the main rapper from Boo-Ya Tribe as the Moleman.

Lil' Kim as Sue Storm

The sequel could be The Fantastic Four Plus One More

Who else should be the Invisible Girl? Jessica Alba's definitely the wrong call.

Oh god, it's soooo miscast. I'm a big FF fan, and it just makes me cringe. I don't know about hip hop casting, but if I was going to pick someone to play Reed Richards, it would be Alexis "Wesley Wyndam-Pryce" Denisof.

Not to be overly Buffycentric, but Sarah Michelle Gellar would probably be a much better Susan Storm.

Matching physical characteristics and also flows to powers...

I kinda like the idea of Pos as Reed Richards (brainy, elastic)
Hmmm...
Lauryn Hill as Sue (disappears, protects)
Ghostface as Johnny (hot, fly)
KRS as the Thing (rough, direct)

I win!
