There's no denying that Joseph Quinn became an overnight sensation thanks to his role as Eddie Munson in Stranger Things Season 4 and the breakout star would be a massive grab for any studio at this point. Of course, considering his growing popularity, fans are now interested in seeing him make the jump to the Marvel Cinematic Universe once his Stranger Things stint is over.

The idea doesn't seem too farfetched when you think about it, considering Marvel Studios has been keeping an eye on Quinn's co-star Millie Bobby Brown for years now. The real question is, which Marvel hero or villain could he end up playing should he join the billion-dollar franchise?

Well, Instagram artist @spdrmnkyxxiii thinks the rising British actor would make a good Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic and I gotta say, I think he looks the part especially after seeing the artwork. Check it out here:

It's worth noting though that the studio has reportedly found the actors that will make up Earth-616's First Family and with the reboot set to hit theaters in late 2024, it would be safe to assume that the casting announcement will finally be made official in the coming months. Perhaps at the upcoming D23 Expo? I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

As for Quinn, while we still don't know what the future holds for Eddie Munson, it's safe to say that we haven't seen the end of the character despite his gruesome death in Season 4.

Marvel Studios' Fantastic Four reboot is the MCU's opening salvo for Phase Six.
