Doctor Strange, in the Multiverse of Madness was John Krasinski’s first appearance as the Fantastic Four. Fantastic for the Illuminati in Earth-838. Krasinski brought a brand new costume from the Illuminati into the MCU to represent the Marvel First Family. He was a sensational debutant who was able to bring the Marvel Universe’s essence alive.
This costume was just one of the many problems that the Doctor Strange2 team had to overcome in order to costume the many characters who were key players in the story. Doctor Strange was fitted for a new Master’s costume. With half a dozen Illuminati heroes, it was crucial to ensure they appeared onscreen in the correct way.
At minimum some of these suits were completely digitally created, such as Anson Mount’s Black Bolt suit. This leads fans to question how much CGI was put in surprising places for Doctor Strange2 .
Now, there are more details about John Krasinski’s Fantastic Four costume. This explains how hard it took to bring the MCU’s original Mr. Fantastic is the title of this story.
Krasinski’s Mr. Fantastic Suit Fully CGI

Graham Churchyard, MCU costume design expert shared his insight on how John Krasinski’s suit was made for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness ..
Churchyard explained that Hayley Atwell’s and Lahsana Lynn’s costumes were made after many fittings. He confirmed however that Krasinski was Mr. The Fantastic suit was entirely created using CGI. No physical costumes were made, unlike Anson Mount’s Black Bolt:
” To answer your question Captain Carter, yes, Hayley was fitted a couple of times in London, before she went to the States for additional photography. Lashana Lynch. We did many fittings together, she is amazing. There was a very different, but still accurate, and intriguing looking Captain Marvel costume. It was completely made by hand, moldable, and all of the parts are molded to fit the individual’s body. However, I was surprised by Reed Richards, Black Bolt and other individuals mentioned, however, I have to say that they aren’t physical costumes .”
.
Churchyard also spoke with ComicBookMovie, offering his sympathies to visual effects artist Janek Sirrs for having to “shoehorn those in at the last moment,” largely due to the travel bans that affected the shooting. Once the characters were set, it was “too late and too close” to shooting to do anything with the costumes physically, meaning they would all have to be done via CGI:
“I feel bad for Janek Sirrs because he had to squeeze those things in last minute. There were designs for characters other than the one we had in mind, but casting was not available and travel bans prevented us from casting. Actors like Sir Patrick were unable to travel to London when we shot the Illuminati. Richie Palmer, as well as everyone else had an extensive wishlist of people who would be joining the Illuminati. It was too late for Los Angeles to have something local when it came to these two characters. It was too soon and way too late. “

The designer shared how much the team tried to do practically in terms of visual effects, even putting Elizabeth Olsen on “a very elaborate wire rig” on which she did all of her stunts as the Scarlet Witch. The team did their best to achieve practical effects without compromising the costumes.
” It was too close to be comfortable for any visual effects because everything had already been there. Wanda is flying through Kamar Taj using a wire rig. It’s a spider-like device that pulls you in many directions. If possible, most of Wanda’s costumes are physical, except for the part where they complain about the skirt. This is just one of many things they must do to create these characters.
Churchyard explains how Lashana Lynch’s Captain Marvel costume was made. He started with a 3D scan of Lashana Lynch before the costume was constructed, then printed and molded over the scan. He was happy with the result, despite the fact that the Illuminati were defeated in the film.
“Lashana Lynn as Captain Marvel…we made that completely from scratch. The process begins with a 3D scan of the subject in a photogrammetry booth. Next, we create a model of the individual and build the costume from that. Finally, we sculpt the pieces in the computer. Then we print them out and mold them. Finally, we bring the actor to our workshop for fittings and refine it. Lashana’s outfit was a great fit. She was happy with her costume and the performance. It was a quick ending for the Illuminati, and a lot was cut. There was more footage, but it might be available on Blu-ray .”
The Surprising Use of CGI for Mr. Fantastic

In recent years Marvel has been more dependent on CGI than ever, especially when it comes the famous costumes in its movies. Spider-Man stunned fans with the creation of a few parts of Spidey’s costumes digitally. The She-Hulk movie will feature a lead character entirely computer-generated.
In the Illuminati’s initial introduction to the MCU it was clear that the majority of the Illuminati wore actual costumes, aside from John Krasinski (and Anson Mount), whose powers required more CGI to make come to life. Fans are hoping the Fantastic Four’s costumes will be as beautiful as they expected in the solo film.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is now streaming on Disney+, and its Blu-ray disc will be available for purchase on July 26.
