Synopsis for Fantastic Four Reboot Revealed
The news coming out of the Fantastic Four reboot camp has been interesting, to say the least. Director Josh Trank has told numerous sources that this film is going to be a bit more grounded and develop the world these characters live in. More recently, actor Toby Kebbell said that his version of Doom is a computer programmer who is also a blogger that goes by the name of "Doom."It seemed like they were trying to keep this film a bit more realistic rather and move away farther away from the comic book fantasy. However, the synopsis for the film, over at Rotten Tomatoes, says something a bit different about the film.THE FANTASTIC FOUR, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel's original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.They're taking some liberties with the original origin, but it's a film and fans should come to expect that. However, travelling to a parallel universe doesn't feel like a film that is very grounded in reality. However, we'll see. It's still a bit early to judge. What do you fine folks think of the synopsis? https://games.yahoo.com/news/synopsis-fantastic-four-reboot-revealed-172200451.html

Fox mismanages the first reveal of The Thing from 'Fantastic Four' reboot https://www.yahoo.com/tv/s/fox-mismanages-first-reveal-thing-230000791.html

Okay, now they're just screwing with us.That's the only explanation for the way we get our first look at The Thing. You've got one of the main characters in a highly anticipated comic book summer movie, and you're carefully protecting the reveal of the character. So of course, you post outdoor billboards with the character before you release any official imagery, and you let your first worldwide media moment be courtesy of Some Random Dude on Instagram.Really?I'm doubly confused by the image itself. What the hell is going on with Kate Mara's head? Was she unavailable for the publicity shoot so you had to build a head out of ten different photos of her? I like that Miles Teller's superpower appears to be "being Miles Teller" so far.But I can't honestly tell you what my reaction to The Thing is because that's such a half-assed way to get a look at him. His expression is odd, and the resolution of the image isn't great. Beyond that, I want to see him in motion. I want to see other actors reacting to him and playing a scene with him. I want to see if Josh Trank shoots him like an actor or like a special effect. I want to see if they've managed to make him a character, because that's the only thing that ultimately matters.

Josh Trank's Fantastic Four film will be hitting theaters on August 7, 2015 and it seems things are locked up a bit tight when it comes to images and news about the film, compared to other blockbuster also coming out during the summer.Luckily, some new images were released today at Empire that give folks a look into what this movie is actually going to look like and one of those images is Jamie Bell as the Thing.

Final 'Fantastic Four' trailer focuses on Doctor Doom, finally gets the tone right https://www.yahoo.com/tv/s/final-fantastic-four-trailer-focuses-162800637.html

The “Fantastic Four” reboot has had a bit of a rough go of it. From terrible wording in character biographies, to mismanaged reveals, to having to back pedal on Doom’s origin, things have been bumpy to say the least.This new trailer goes a long way to fixing those issues for me. Reed Richards is finally shown as a scientific genius who has little grasp on social niceties or safety protocols (which is probably how they all end up in the teleporters to begin with). Johnny Storm gets to let loose with his trademarked snark. The plot finally puts in an appearance, with the government hoping to utilize the team as a weapon while Johnny and Sue’s dad tries to stop them. And we finally get a good look a Doctor Doom, who’s scarred body is leaps and bounds better than whatever was happening in the 2005 version.Of course, your mileage may vary.

Fantastic Four Cast Want Silver Surfer & Namor In Sequel http://news.yahoo.com/fantastic-four-cast-want-silver-surfer-namor-in-083041556.html

The cast of the new ‘Fantastic Four’ reboot have been talking about the characters they’d love to see in the sequel, namely a fan favourite and a character not yet seen on the big screen.Michael B Jordan, who plays The Human Torch and Jamie Bell, who plays The Thing shared their thoughts with ComicBook.com during the promotional trail for the film set for release next week.“You can’t get away from Silver Surfer,” says Bell. “I know chronologically speaking that was the next villain in the previous franchise but I think Silver Surfer is cool looking.”This is as likely as it is unlikely. The Silver Surfer is a top character Fox own as part of the Fantastic Four license, but they may be concious about repeating the past - as Bell mentions.“Namor is a cool one,” Jordan then said, adding that the character is, “by far, he’s the strongest mutant. You know what I’m saying? Maybe not by far, but he’s the strongest mutant. It would be a pretty interesting battle, the Fantastic Four vs. Namor.”Sadly this won’t be happening as the rights to Namor The Submariner belong to Universal Pictures and Marvel - the former belonging the distribution rights as they would for any solo Hulk movie.
Bell also spoke about how he wants to see the relationships between the four continue to grow.

A Soon-to-Be Supervillain Lurks Among 'Fantastic Four' (Exclusive Clip) https://www.yahoo.com/movies/a-soon-to-be-supervillain-lurks-among-fantastic-125442545022.html

Meriah Doty....Here is our best look yet at how a certain foursome becomes so fantastic.This exclusive clip from Josh Trank’s upcoming superhero reboot Fantastic Four sets up the origins of the titular characters. Mirroring the plot of the Ultimate Fantastic Four comic book, the clip finds Reed Richards (Miles Teller), Johnny Storm (Michael B. Jordan), and Ben Grimm (Jamie Bell) preparing for their maiden voyage into another dimension — called the N-Zone in the Marvel Universe — which will give them extraordinary abilities. Richards turns into the stretchable Mr. Fantastic; Storm becomes the highly flammable Human Torch; Grimm morphs into the Thing, the team’s literal rock.While the footage does not include Sue Storm aka The Invisible Woman (Kate Mara), there is a fourth member of the team revealed here: Victor Domashev, played by English actor Toby Kebbell (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes).

'Fantastic Four' Cast Handles Offensive Interview Like Pros......Why are these questions being asked in the first place? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry...9d1e4b0b23e3ce2f963?ncid=txtlnkusaolp00000592

While making press rounds for their upcoming film "Fantastic Four," Michael B. Jordan and Kate Mara fielded a series of cringeworthy questions on the "Rock 100.5 Morning Show" in Atlanta on Thursday. Interviewer Steven J. Rickman ("Southside Steve") first asked what he claimed was an "obvious" question about how the two actors' characters, Johnny and Sue Storm, could logically be brother and sister, as they have been in previous iterations of the story. When the actors confirmed they were, he pushed on in utter confusion -- "But you're white and you're black. How does that happen?" -- until Jordan, much like he did when faced with similar questions on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," stepped in to explain basic reality.

Fox thinks outside the box with 'Fantastic Four' http://www.cnbc.com/2015/08/01/fox-...adline|headline|story&par=yahoo&doc=102879315

Next weekend, 20th Century Fox will see whether moviegoers are ready to welcome back the Fantastic Four—eight years after two forgettable films brought to life Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch and The Thing.However, a few controversial casting decisions for the film have left some fans fearing the worst, with a vocal contingent even vowing to boycott the movie altogether—raising the possibility that the film could fall short at a time when demand for comic book movies has never been stronger.Marvel's super-powered quartet is the latest comic book property to undergo a big-screen makeover. Box-office watchers have come to expect huge hauls after a series of superhero flicks became breakout hits. Yet some analysts say measuring "Fantastic Four" by those standards risks overlooking Fox's long-standing and mostly successful strategy."Fox is a different kind of studio than most other studios. They don't tend to swing for the fences. They don't make the gigantic big bets, and they don't miss very often," David Bank, a media analyst at RBC Capital Markets told CNBC.

Already flopping at the box office, looks like Marvel/Disney will get the rights back to another one of their properties, I doubt Fox will want to make another one to keep the rights since this one cost $150 million plus marketing.

It will go back to Marvel just like Daredevil did and Spider Man ( film rights now shared with Sony).

The only film franchise that Marvel has no control of is X-Men and that is doing just fine for Fox.

They just can't do that and some other movies right!! IMO

Box Office: ‘Fantastic Four’ Bombs With $26.2 Million Weekend https://www.yahoo.com/movies/s/box-office-fantastic-four-bombs-26-2-million-150059514.html

Scathing reviews and an indiscreet tweet left “Fantastic Four” on the slab, after the franchise reboot flopped at the weekend box office.Fox’s hopes of rejuvenating the comic book characters and turning the super-team into a cinematic juggernaut to rival “The X-Men” have flamed out given that the film debuted to a dreadful $26.2 million across 3,995 theaters. With a production budget of $120 million, plus millions more in marketing costs, the film will need to get a boost from foreign crowds if it wants to avoid being a write-off.The studio was banking on a cast of up-and-coming actors like Michael B. Jordan and Miles Teller and a wunderkind director in the form of “Chronicle’s” Josh Trank to push the Human Torch, the Thing, Invisible Woman, and Mr. Fantastic into the modern era, but production difficulties may have doomed the project. Trank reportedly exhibited bizarre behavior on set that was so extreme it cost him his gig directing a “Star Wars” spin-off. He seemed to acknowledge those tensions, blaming studio-mandated reshoots for the poor critical notices in a tweet Thursday that he subsequently deleted.“Fantastic Four’s” opening is well below the $40 million-plus debut that most analysts had projected and trails the $56 million launch of 2005’s “Fantastic Four” and the $58 million bow of 2007’s “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.” It’s the worst opening for a movie featuring Marvel Comics’ characters since “Ghost Rider: The Spirit of Vengeance” debuted to $22.1 million in 2012. A C minus CinemaScore means that word-of-mouth is going to be toxic.

Fantastic Four sequel reportedly postponed in favour of Deadpool 2 http://www.flickeringmyth.com/2015/...tedly-postponed-in-favour-for-deadpool-2.html

Things are already pretty bad for Fantastic Four. It has rather poor reviews (read ours here and here), a war raging on between director and studio (with Josh Trank tweeting its their fault, and Fox saying it was his), and the film is only tracking to make $25 million by the end of its opening weekend. Fox had already penned in a date for a sequel on June 9th 2017 – but they may be backtracking on that idea.Deadpool isn’t released until February 2016, but the red band trailer has already generated positive buzz among comic book fans, and according to The Daily Superhero we may see a sequel for it in the place of the current Fantastic Four sequel date.It should be noted that the source of this rumour is hardly reputable, but it wouldn’t be too out-of-sight for Fox to distance themselves away from the movie following all its bad press.Deadpool is set for release on February 5th 2016 in the UK and February 12th 2016 in the States. Reynolds and Miller will share the screen with Morena Baccarin (Gotham) as Copycat, Gina Carano (Fast & Furious 6) as Angel Dust, Ed Skrein (Game of Thrones) as Ajax, Andre Tricoteux (Seventh Son) as Colossus, Leslie Uggams (Roots) as Blind Al and newcomer Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead.

Fantastic Four: Fox Moving Ahead With Sequel Despite $60m Loss

Looks like 20th Century Fox are going to take the failure of ‘Fantastic Four’ in their stride and press on with a sequel despite a likely $60 million loss.A sequel has been penciled in for 2017, but that release date is still in doubt with reports indicating Fox may take their time with the follow-up.In a HitFix report into the failings of the film, Drew McWeeny writes: “Everything I’ve heard would indicate that the studio will move forward with a 'Fantastic Four’ sequel."It may not make that original 2017 date, but they’re definitely planning to make it.”This despite the film flopping at the box office with The Hollywood Reporter estimating that it will end up costing Fox a huge $60 million. As it stands the rights to the Fantastic Four and all the characters who come with them will expire (based on the time elapsed between the previous two movies) in 2022 if Fox doesn’t already have a sequel in the works for a 2023 release date. They have plenty of time to make a sequel work.

'Fantastic Four' Is One Of The Most Shocking Box Office Flops Since 'The Avengers' http://www.forbes.com/sites/scottme...ngers/?utm_campaign=yahootix&partner=yahootix

*No, not THAT The Avengers. I’m talking about the other Avengers movie. No, not Age of Ultron, the OTHER Avengers movie. The one that turns 17 years old on Friday? ”Rain or shine, all is mine?” “How now, brown cow?” Yeah, that’s the one.Thanks to happenstance and random chance, I found myself seeing Fantastic Four and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. within hours of each other. We now know what I thought of both films, but there was something interesting about seeing them so close as if one acted as the antidote to the other. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. is no great artistic triumph, but it is reliable, engaging, and intelligent meat-and-potatoes entertainment. And coming after the devastating catastrophe that was Fantastic Four, there was almost a feeling of relief, a reminder that Hollywood could still pull off this kind of pulpy and relatively unassuming goodness. That in itself was a familiar feeling. It was the same response I had on August 21st, 1998 to a little down-and-dirty R-rated vampire movie called Blade. Its sheer entertainment value and unquestionable competence were a huge relief coming just one week after the stunning disappointment of The Avengers. In fact, looking back on it, the utter failure of the 1960?s spy adventure is every bit as unlikely as the complete failure of the comic book superhero franchise picture was today.

Why the new Fantastic Four movie is an even bigger disaster than we thought https://www.yahoo.com/tech/s/why-fantastic-four-movie-even-bigger-disaster-thought-224012518.html

It’s unclear just how deep the issues ran on the set of Fox’s rebooted Fantastic Four, but a new story from The Hollywood Reporter paints the clearest picture of the dysfunction to date.The funniest detail comes from the first lines of the article, in which a source reveals that director Josh Trank sent an email to the cast of the film shortly before opening day stating that Fantastic Four was “better than 99 percent of the comic-book movies ever made.” A cast member responded with the following: “I don’t think so.”As THR goes on to note, the story might not have been so volatile had Trank let whatever behind-the-scenes drama transpired remain behind the scenes, but the tweet on August 6th stirred the pot enough to get reporters poking around for juicier details, resulting in the continued fallout.Inside sources suggest that the original reports of “erratic behavior” actually undersold the extent of Trank’s irresponsibility, resulting in the director hiring lawyer Marty Singer to keep his name as clean as possible.

'Fantastic Four' Got So Bad, Miles Teller and Josh Trank Nearly Beat Each Other Up https://www.yahoo.com/movies/fantastic-four-got-so-bad-miles-teller-and-josh-126670602777.html

No wonder the new Fantastic Four reboot became a punching bag for film critics, and then got knocked out by indifferent audiences: The set of Fox’s superhero flick was so dysfunctional, it nearly became a boxing ring itself.There’s been a lot of finger-pointing in the aftermath of the $120 million movie’s disastrous $26 million opening weekend, which actually began with director Josh Trank’s Twitter-diss of the film on the eve of its release. The latest behind-the-scenes allegations finds Trank almost throwing down with star Miles Teller, who played Reed Richards in the Marvel mishap.Trank initially fought hard to get Teller cast in the film, winning out over Fox’s objections. But the director and actor’s relationship later turned sour. According to a story in this week’s Entertainment Weekly, Trank and Teller did not get along on the set of the film; Trank was allegedly withdrawn during production, and Teller is frequently sarcastic, making for a bad combination. Things got so bad at one point, in fact, that Trank and Teller’s disagreement brought them chest-to-chest, daring one another to throw the first punch (Teller didn’t have the benefit of Mr. Fantastic’s super-stretchy arms in real life).

'Fantastic Four' flop sparks Marvel clawback rumors http://www.cnbc.com/2015/08/14/fant...adline|headline|story&par=yahoo&doc=102919410

These are grim days for Marvel's First Family, otherwise known as The Fantastic Four.Walt Disney-owned Marvel Studios has clawed back the film rights to a handful of heroes in recent years. After a spectacular flop at the box office last weekend, speculation is rampant that the Fantastic Four could return to its Marvel roots.Industry watchers and fans alike are questioning whether 20th Century Fox can salvage its Fantastic Four franchise after an attempt to reboot the series drew scathing reviews, and opening weekend earnings that fell well short of its $40 million estimate—and its reportedly $120 million production budget.The outcome could shake up the lucrative superhero film business, giving Disney control of virtually every Marvel character and leaving Fox with only the X-Men.In the mid 1990s, Marvel sold the rights to a number of its hottest properties at a time when it was in the throes of bankruptcy. Among the spoils, Fox got the X-Men and Fantastic Four, and Sony picked up Spider-Man.
