Fantastic Four remake in the works

Miles Teller, Kit Harrington and Kate Mara among those testing

 

Sources tell Variety that Simon Kinberg has finished rewriting the script and that the studio plans to begin testing thesps for the roles of Reed Richards (aka Mister Fantastic) and Sue Storm (aka the Invisible Woman) by the end of the month.

 

Teller was asked Tuesday in an interview at Sundance if he would be playing Richards. He replied that, “Yeah that should be happening in the next few weeks,” making it seem like the actor was already on board. But sources say the actor was misunderstood and that he is testing but isn’t the frontrunner or officially attached. Other actors expected to test for the part include “Game of Thrones’” Kit Harington and Richard Madden.

 

Kate Mara and Saoirse Ronan are expected to test for Sue Storm. Michael B. Jordan is attached to play Johnny Storm, but he is expected to test with the actors to see which group has the best chemistry.

Josh Trank is on board to direct the pic with Kinberg, Matthew Vaughn and Gregory Goodman serving as producers.

 

“The Fantastic Four” is slated to bow June 19, 2015.

I love  Saorise Ronan and Emile Clarke but if Michael B. Jordan is a lock to play Human Torch then Sue Storm needs to be a black actress as well.

 

 

Anyways, I have faith in Josh Trank because Chronicle was really good and he's taken his sweet old time developing this movie. Since all of the actors are young it looks like they're going the Ultimate FF route which I'm in favor of because I think Ultimate FF is a really fun comic series. i forsee the movie bombing though due to a lack of stars, no big name director, the previous movies sucking, and FF not being as big of a deal as it used to be.

growing weary of super hero movies.

 

They need to reboot the Batman movies. It's been almost 9 years since the first movie in the series was made. They need to do it again, with better special effects, a younger actor, and make it darker and not so cartoonish this time around.

Sometimes the reboot is a necessity.. See "The Amazing Spiderman', the SamRaimi trilogy was doodoo after the 1st installment. I really liked the new version, ready for the 2nd in this series...

 

Reboots are stupid, anybody that is going to see these movies have seen the others...pick up and move on with the story.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
