We’re sure to see a lot of awesome stuff when The Fantastic Four: First Steps hits theaters later this month, but one thing we won’t see is John Malkovich. The legendary star of Being John Malkovich, Con Air, Rounders, Red, and more was cast in the film and shot all his scenes. But, it turns out, those scenes have now been cut.

Despite not making the final cut, Malkovich “was brilliant in it, and gave it his all," said director Matt Shakman

John Malkovich's scenes as antagonist Ivan Kragoff/Red Ghost have been cut from the Marvel movie The Fantastic Four: First Steps, as they didn't fit in with the film's plot.
