Then, on the very day of the films opening, Trank took to Twitter to express his frustration about the cut of the film being released in theaters. The tweet read, "A year ago I had a fantastic version of this. And it would've received great reviews. You'll probably never see it. That's reality though.". While Trank quickly deleted it, the damage was done and the tweet was estimated to have cost Fox $10 million. Being hired shortly after The Avengers had come out and become a box office goliath, Slater was aiming for that tone and style, writing a big comic book-inspired script that featured Galactus and Doctor Doom as a herald for the world-destroyer. Trank wanted the film to be closer in tone to the body horror films of David Cronenberg like Scanners and The Fly.
In their first theatrical live-action adaptation, the Fantastic Four was played by Ioan Gruffudd (Mister Fantastic), Jessica Alba (Sue Storm / Invisible Woman), Michael Chiklis (Ben Grimm / Thing), and Chris Evans (Johnny Storm / Human Torch). This version of the superfamily lasted for two movies, and while they are still remembered as the original live-action version of the heroes, neither movie was well-received enough to please comic book fans. The second version of the Fantastic Four tried to follow a completely different path, with a teen cast of characters and an interdimensional plotline that was equally rejected by critics and the audience in 2015. Add that to the 1990s live-action movie that didn’t even get to theaters and it is easy to see how the Fantastic Four doesn’t have a prosperous history in Hollywood.
Trank and 20th Century Fox reportedly feuded quite a bit while filming took place, and it was noted the movie did not have an ending. Reshoots were ordered by Fox in January 2015, as they were not satisfied with the cut they had seen. A sequel was scheduled for a June 9, 2017 release, but was cancelled after the film's failure.
Next came casting, and having worked with Michael B. Jordan on Chronicle, Trank cast him as Johnny Storm. Trank wanted to cast a Black actress to play Sue Storm but the studio reportedly blocked that decision, and the role eventually went to Kate Mara. Mara later stated that Fantastic Four was one of her worst experiences on a film, and Trank reportedly took his frustrations out on her. Trank also picked Miles Teller, hot off The Spectacular Now and Whiplash, to play Reed Richards, and the two would eventually clash on set multiple times. Fantastic Four premiered at Williamsburg Cinemas in New York City on August 4, 2015, and was released on August 7 in the United States. Critics called the film "woefully misguided" and unfaithful to the source material, although there was some praise for the musical score.
Fox canceled the previously announced sequel which was set to open in theaters on June 9, 2017. While Fox floated ideas for how to continue the brand, including a Doctor Doom origin movie, Disney began the move to acquire 20th Century Fox which became official in 2019. Shortly after, plans to bring the Fantastic Four into the MCU began to move forward, and the character's introduction will kick off Phase 6 on November 8, 2024. In many ways, the 2015 Fantastic Four serves as a cautionary tale, but an interesting artifact of a superhero film made at a point of transition for many involved. manga In the seven years since its release, it has not generated the same nostalgic reappraisal that other comic book movies have, but it is certainly one that the next film can only improve upon. In a bad sign, the movie's social media embargo did not lift until 7 pm on Thursday, the same time as its first showtimes, indicating that 20th Century Fox knew the reviews of the film could easily sink their chances at a semi-decent opening weekend.
He is portrayed by John Krasinski, who had previously expressed interest in portraying Richards.[171][172] Additionally, the Baxter Foundation is mentioned in the film as the employer of Christine Palmer. Meanwhile, Victor, having also been affected by the storm due to the shields' malfunctioning, begins mutating into organic metal and is able to produce electricity, and begins plotting to use his new powers to take his revenge. On the Brooklyn Bridge, Ben accidentally causes a traffic pile-up while stopping a man from committing suicide. While the public cheer them for their efforts, Ben's fiancée arrives to silently split their engagement, unable to accept him for his condition. The media dubs them "The Fantastic Four," and Victor exploits the news story to his stockholders, but they decide to pull out of Von Doom Industries.
Each character possesses a unique set of abilities that you can use and combine in the hunt for Doctor Doom. So far, this has been an amazing experience, and we have noticed that over time, we have gained more benefits from these moments. Feel free to reach out to us if you have something to share or simply have a good time on a Friday afternoon. I consider myself lucky to be part of a team of incredibly interesting people from whom I learn a lot every day. It’s not uncommon for our lunchtime conversations to evolve from simple questions like “How has your day been so far?
That’s some big shoes to fill, and we are all very curious to see how Kaplan & Springer will handle the task. While Kaplan & Springer don’t have much Hollywood experience, they are currently attached to Warner Bros. high profile project Disaster Wedding. So, while it’s still too early to know where Kaplan & Springer would lead Fantastic Four, we can already hope they will fare better than the previous cinematic versions of the superfamily. Based on the 2005 movie of the same name, Fantastic Four lets you control the team of superheroes known as the Fantastic 4.
When plans for a third film fell through, 20th Century Fox rebooted the series with 2015's Fantastic Four. The film experienced a worse critical reception than the original films and failed at the box office, leading to the cancellation of a sequel planned for a 2017 release. Trank said that shortly before production began, the studio cut $30 million from the film's budget.
