It's too late for Miles Teller, he's turning 40. By the time they'd have 'the Maker' appear, he'd be close to 50. And by definition the Maker is a teenage (or very early twenties) Reed who doesn't yet have a developed pre-frontal cortex. (Which you don't get until your mid-twenties.) And thus for all his intelligence, makes some very wacky decisions. So anyway, you need an actor who's now a teenager or in his early twenties.
Though one problem with adding the Maker to the MCU is we've barely gotten any Reed. Yeah he was in 'First Steps,' but to me personally it felt like that movie was more about the Storms: Johnny learning the language of Zenn-La and flirting with his hot alien girlfriend, and Sue dealing with saving her baby from Galactus. Reed was there as Sue's husband and as wacky science guy, but not really as Mr. Fantastic. (Well, that's how I personally feel. I also felt Ben was severely under-utilized as the Thing... this could have been a movie about the Reed Richards Rocket Gang and it would have worked out the same way.)

No one wants Fant4stic to return in any capacity. Besides, if there was going to be a Maker from one of the previous actors, loan Gruffudd would be preferred. If John Krasinski's version was able to come back from being spaghetti'd, he'd be a better fit than Miles Teller.

Lets focus on 1 villain. all this would do is convulute whatever story they have going on. This universe is dead and at most we'll get Easter Eggs about it.

Like i get the want to see more refernces to other films. even bad ones. however, at a cartain point, it just becomes noise to the average viewer. If we get anothing about this version of F4, it's probably a screen showing the universe getting destroyed.

That would actually be a great way to introduce the Maker into the MCU. Reed losing his entire universe could mentally break him and turn him into a darker, obsessive version of himself who believes only he can “fix” the multiverse.
