Joseph Quinn, the British actor who stole hearts as Eddie Munson in Netflix's hit series Stranger Things, is now set to electrify the big screen as part of Marvel's highly anticipated Fantastic Four reboot.
From Hawkins to Hollywood
Quinn's journey to stardom wasn't overnight. After his breakout role in Stranger Things season 4, where he played the beloved metalhead Eddie, the actor quickly became a fan favourite. His emotional performance and on-screen charisma catapulted him into the spotlight, earning him critical acclaim and a massive global following.
Marvel's Newest Superstar
Now, Quinn is preparing to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though his exact role in Fantastic Four remains under wraps. Industry insiders suggest he might be playing Johnny Storm (The Human Torch), though some speculate he could portray a younger Reed Richards. Whatever the role, fans are already buzzing with excitement.
Behind the Scenes
Off-screen, Quinn has maintained a relatively private life. Born and raised in London, he trained at the prestigious London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) before landing roles in British television shows like Dickensian and Les Misérables.
When not filming, Quinn enjoys playing guitar - a skill he showcased in Stranger Things - and has expressed interest in music production. Friends describe him as down-to-earth despite his rapid rise to fame.
What's Next for Quinn?
With Fantastic Four scheduled to begin production soon, Quinn's star is only set to rise higher. The film, directed by Matt Shakman, is expected to hit cinemas in 2025 as part of Marvel's Phase Six.
Meanwhile, fans continue to speculate whether Eddie Munson might return in Stranger Things season 5, though Quinn has remained tight-lipped about any potential cameos.
