First Steps star John Malkovich shares his knowledge of the titular group growing up and if he'll feature in future MCU titles.

John Malkovich told GQ that he turned down multiple Marvel roles before agreeing to appear in "The Fantastic Four: First Steps."

If you’re going to hang from a crane in front of a green screen for six months, pay me,” said the ‘Opus’ star John Malkovich is soon to make his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut. But it wasn’t his first superheroic offer.

John Malkovich is set to make his Marvel debut as a mystery character in this summer’s “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” but it wasn’t the first Marvel role the Oscar nominee has been offered over the years.

Basically, it boils down to John Malkovich knowing his worth and not accepting anything less. I’m curious to learn what these other Marvel movies are that he’d ben approached for, but regardless, he didn’t think he was being offered a fair deal for half his year being taken up on a blockbuster production.
