Jessica Alba got real about her least favorite scene to shoot as Sue Storm in the 2005 film Fantastic Four<\/a> 20 years later \u2014 a \u201chumiliating\u201d one where her character reappeared completely naked over a bridge.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought that was awful,\u201d she said while giving an expansive talk on her career<\/a> at the Red Sea Film Festival. \u201cIt was very humiliating in real life. I grew up with a pretty conservative family, and I am a pretty modest person. I dreaded that scene for weeks. I have a lot of whiplash from those days.\u201d<\/p>\n

That said, Alba went on to say that she \u201cloved\u201d playing the character and breaking gender stereotypes in superhero media with the role. \u201cShe was a woman I looked up to,\u201d she explained. \u201cShe was very maternal and very kind, but also not a pushover; she spoke her mind. She had a great moral compass. No matter who you are, you can look up to her. Oftentimes, the women in these stories need to be saved by a guy or the villain, the problem in the story. This was back then. It\u2019s different now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ranking the Fantastic Four Movies\"With<\/p>\n

Interestingly enough, Alba hasn\u2019t had a chance to catch her successor, Vanessa Kirby, try her hand at Sue Storm in The Fantastic Four: First Steps<\/a>. \u201cI usually watch those movies with my kids, and if Sonic was out, my son wants to watch it 85 times in a row. When it comes to movies that are for the family, my kids dominate what we watch for sure,\u201d she revealed during the talk. \u201cBut I have to convince him because we have to see it! I love Marvel, and they\u2019re so fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alba took on the role of Sue Storm in the 2005 entry and the 2007 sequel film Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer<\/a>. After her, Kate Mara played the role in the 2015 reboot film<\/a>. Last year, Alba said she would “jump at the chance” to reprise her Fantastic Four role<\/a>, but confirmed Marvel Studios has yet to approach her about a return.<\/p>\n

Marvel rebooted The Fantastic Four with Vanessa Kirby taking on the role of Sue Storm<\/a> alongside Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards\/Mister Fantastic, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm\/The Thing, and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm\/Human Torch.<\/p>\n
