As a Marvel fan, the one thing I love about going to Disneyland is getting to see Marvel characters. It’s always fun to bump into Captain America, Thor, Loki (a personal fave of mine), Scarlet Witch, and more. It’s also nice when Marvel adds new characters to Avengers Campus, which usually happens when a new movie is about to release.

Reed and Sue in Tomorrowland

Well, we now have a tip that one Marvel character that hasn’t been available in Disneyland for a while may be coming back…at least in some capacity. After all, there is a HUGE Marvel movie releasing at the end of the year, so it totally makes sense.

We recently spotted a new Disneyland audition notice looking for someone to portray Mr. Fantastic (aka Reed Richards, the leader of the Fantastic Four). The audition notice points out that characters like this interact with thousands of guests, signing autographs, posing for pictures, and “helping to create magical moments with guests of all ages.”

Mr. Fantastic was last seen as a character in Tomorrowland in 2025 to promote the Fantastic Four movie, which was released on July 25th, 2025. He appeared with the other Fantastic Four characters, Sue Reed (aka Invisible Woman), Human Torch, Thing, and H.E.R.B.I.E. We don’t know if this new character appearance will happen in Tomorrowland or Avengers Campus, but as it says it’s for “Special Events,” we’re guessing this might have something to do with promotion for the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie.

The Fantastic Four are confirmed to be appearing in that film, so it makes sense that they might put in an appearance somewhere in Disneyland with other Marvel characters ahead of the big Doomsday premiere on December 18th. Of course, we’ll be keeping an eye out for an official announcement from Disney about the appearance of Mr. Fantastic in the parks, so we’ll let you know when we know more. In the meantime, stay tuned to DFB for more Disney news.
