20th Century Fox has reportedly zeroed in on a hot up-and-coming filmmaker to direct their Fantastic Four reboot.

Variety says that Josh Trank, director of the upcoming superpowers flick Chronicle, has taken a number of meetings with studio brass about helming the restart of the Marvel superheroes on the big screen.

The trade claims Fox is waiting to see how Chronicle performs at the box office before extending a formal job offer to Trank. "Internally, studio execs expect Trank to land the coveted helming gig," Variety adds.



Green Lantern's Michael Green penned the script. Akiva Goldsman is no longer involved as a producer.

Hmm ...

Uh oh I think I put this in the wrong spot my apologies .

Controversial opinion: The last two F4 films weren't THAT bad. Could be better, but still watchable.

I rather enjoyed them actually. But that could be because I think Julian McMahon is a bad ass so I liked him as Dr. Doom.

Also I won't be seeing this film. I'm sick of quick reboots.

I think it is a little to soon for a reboot of F4 anyways. Way to soon.

This and Spider-man. Way too goddamn soon.

That Garfield fella being Peter Parker really doesn't help either.

Or that ridiculous form fitting suit that put him in.

Also another stupid casting choice having a famous for her red hair actress dye it blond to play Gwen Stacey, nobody gives two shits about her.

Why not cast Emma Stone as Mary-Jane? Stupid. Stupid.

Well considering tobey mcguire's spider man story was supposed to be continued with spider man 4 5 and 6

Even if they had to replace Tobey, I still would have wanted to see the next chapters in that series. I hate starting over.

Now the new villain is gonna be curt conners/lizard. If spider man 4 came out, lizard would have been perfect

 

[Wangman Page]

I don't mind Lizard as the villian. He was a pretty good villian. Kingpin would be good too as him a spidey had some feuds along with Dr. Doom. I really want carnage too. I would rather have a sequel than a reboot though.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Sequel all the way. We could have had both Lizard and Carnage in four as the villains. If you remember, Conners had a piece of the symbote.

I'm sure that was going to spawn Carnage. Four was going to be money. Fuck reboots.

out of all the reboots the only I have enjoyed so far has been Batman. Superman sucked. I hated Brandon Routh.

That wasn't actually a reboot. It's was a very poorly done sequel. The first two films did exist in that timeline.

The next one "Man of Steel" will be the reboot.

TBH I'm not a fan of the Batman series but I respect it was time for a fresh series. None of these others though needed do overs.
