Joseph Quinn is about to mark yet another milestone in his rising career. After making himself noticeable in the world of television, the British actor is now taking another step as he officially joins the Marvel Universe. The actor has been cast as Johnny Storm, aka the Human Torch, in Fantastic Four, which is going to be the biggest role in his career yet. However, not everyone is confident about this casting decision, especially after seeing the new transformation of the 30-year-old.

Some pictures of Joseph Quinn from his Fantastic Four training recently surfaced on the web. He was seen posing alongside his personal trainer in London, wearing sweats and sporting a bald head. Fans found it hard to picture a bald Johnny Storm, a character known for his trademark blonde locks. However, despite the skepticism, Quinn seems more dedicated than ever to the part.

In a recent interview with GQ, Joseph Quinn gave a peek into his intense training to play the iconic Fantastic Four hero. “I’m eating stuff and lifting things,” said the actor. He also showered praise on his personal trainer, calling him “a rhinoceros of a man.” Nonetheless, some fans are still not convinced that Quinn fits into the role of the Human Torch.

Upon seeing the bald look, fans took to X to share their worries about how a bald Johnny Storm would ruin the character for them.

Since the moment it was announced that Joseph Quinn got the part of Johnny Storm in the upcoming Fantastic Four, fans have had mixed feelings. Although the actor is highly lovable, not everyone thinks he can capture the charm of Storm. And after seeing his shaved head look, fans' skepticism further went through the roof. 

While some could not see past "a bald human torch", others felt a wig would do the trick. 

As Quinn moves from Netflix’s Stranger Things to the heart of Disney’s next big swing, there are a lot of hopes riding on him. However, fans will have to wait until July 2025 to see if their fears were on the mark, or if Joseph Quinn proves everyone wrong and knocks it out of the park.
