Oomph! Are you seated comfortably? Because you might just want to grip onto your popcorn containers and feed your curiosity, folks. Something pretty "fantastic" is in the works - yes, we're yapping about the impending reboot of Fantastic Four due for an action-packed 2025 release. It seems like we could be in for one spin-tingling ride!
The reboot movie, the third entry, promises a full new wardrobe change for Marvel's First Family, donning a new psyche and fresh attitude, according to Matt Shakman, our very own director. "It's different in so many ways," Shakman, in a riddled language that sounds like a mad scientist, coyly spills to Collider. "We're doing things from a story standpoint, from an approach to the filmmaking that fits the material like a skin-tight suit on Mr. Fantastic himself," he continued, in a fashion that would make J.J. Abrams proud.
Wait a sec, did we get anything more? Did our dear director spill more beans? Oh, how we wish! Shakman stopped short of revealing more juicy tidbits, but managed to hint at an experience unlike anything we've ventured into before in the Marvel cinematic universe. Talk about firing up our imaginations!
Given that our beloved Marvel cinematic universe has been making rounds for quite some time now, an invigorating leader marching forward the superhero march would be just what the doctor ordered. So, it looks like our Fantastic Four may just come out of the telephone booth in new garb, ready to conquer the universe once more.
But that's not all folks! Our whisper-birds also confirmed shooting for the film to start next year. "Yes, we are definitely going in front of cameras next year," Shakman revealed, leaving us salivating for an update that would make a fictional tabloid proud. "It will shoot in London. In the fine cosmopolitan of Pinewood."
As for who gets to play the coveted roles, that's a story yet to be written. Rumors are flying thicker than The Thing's orange skin though - with heavy-hitters like Adam Driver, Jodie Comer, and Paul Mescal spotted on the rumor radar. But, by Odin’s beard! Let us not engage in mere speculation. We've all titled a bit too forward in our seats for that.
So, while you await the Fantastic Four, take a little detour down the Marvel release lane. Loki season 2 has a new episode dropping every week on Disney Plus. It’s chock-full of unexpected twists, deep dives, recaps, and much, much more. But fear not, we promise no spoilers. What we do promise though is a Fantastic Four that is anything but ordinary. So shine up your shields, straighten out your capes and cinch those utility belts. We're in for a wild ride!
