  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nMichael B. Jordan already gave us an \"unexpected\" update on Prime Video's **_Fourth Wing_ TV show** when he revealed where the show is in its pre-production phase. \"Trust me, I know how beloved this franchise IP is and we’re diligently…We’re in the lab; we’re cooking up. We got it. It’s coming,\" he **told _Deadline_**. \"It’s early stages, but I feel how much people care about this one. It’s not lost on us.”\n\nWell, the actor (who's executive producing the romantasy adaptation) also just spoke on what kind of casting we can expect — which is arguably the most talked-about part of the entire process. (Seriously, have you seen all the different **fan casts**?!).\n\n* * *\n\n## Here's what Michael B. Jordan's latest update on the _Fourth Wing_ TV show cast because I know you're on the edge of your seat!\n\n### Michael B. Jordan promises the 'Fourth Wing' cast won't be \"obvious\" or \"cheesy.\"\n\n\n\n\n> @britandco ummm could we get Michael b Jordan as xaden?? #fourthwing #michaelbjordan #xadenriorson #rebeccayarros #booktok ♬ Ordinary - Alex Warren\n\nThe _Sinners_ actor opened up about the casting process for making sure every single role in the _Fourth Wing_ show is just right — because Jordan clearly knows how important it is to choose the right people. While some fans of the book are hoping for famous A-listers and others are hoping for unknown actors, it sounds like we could have a combination of both.\n\n\"When it's done the right way, I think you can have a nice balance where casting won't be distracting,\" Michael B. Jordan **told the BBC**. \"It allows people to, like, fall in love with the characters that they have imagined in their head without any baggage, with projecting their own feelings on certain casts. So just know, it's nothing cheesy coming out. It ain't no obvious choices. I think it's going to be something that feels honest.\"\n\nBut will Jordan himself take on a starring role? \"I don't know,\" he says honestly. Okay, listen, that's not a no! I would love to see Jordan onscreen, even if it's in a cameo or a smaller role. I think that could be a fun wink for audience members.\n\n### Does Fourth Wing have a cast yet?\n\n\n\n\n>  View this post on Instagram \n>\n> A post shared by Danny Griffin (@danny_griffin_)\n\nThere isn't an official cast for the show yet, but hopefully we get updates sooner rather than later. **Josh Heuston as Xaden Riorson and Mackenzie Foy as Violet** are some fan favorite casting choices, but recently, Danny Griffin **posted a photo** of himself reading _Fourth Wing_ , which has readers wondering if we'll see him step into the show too. Stay tuned for more casting news as we get closer to the show's release.\n\n**Follow us onFacebook****for more _Fourth Wing_ news and updates!**",
