New Fantastic Four Movie Announced by Disney

A new Fantastic Four movie is being made. It was approximately one year ago when Disney bought the rights to the Fantastic Four and will be joining MCU with their movie.

 

If you didn’t already know, Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is owned by the Walt Disney Company. At their quarterly investment call on Thursday, the company announced the launch of the superhero family movie, Fantastic Four, and although the director has been confirmed, other details are still sketchy.

 

New Fantastic Four Movie Planned

Although many believe that the superhero genre of movies is currently oversaturated, if you are a fan of Marvel, the new Fantastic Four movie is great news. At their quarterly meeting, the announcement was made. And the most interesting part of the news was that a Marvel Studios veteran will be at the helm to direct the film.

The Walt Disney Company didn’t share many details during their 2020 Disney Investors Day, but they did announce the director. Veteran MCU director Jon Watts will be directing the movie. Watts has previously directed Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Spider-Man: Far from Home. Watts will also be directing the third film in the Spider-Man MCU series.

 

New Fantastic Four Movie Launch Date?

At the time of writing, the info on the Fantastic Four Disney movie is limited. No details about the cast, the filming schedule, the story, or the release date were mentioned. We will have to wait to find out. Patience is a virtue, Luke!

 

Considering how poor the past Fantastic Four movies were, it only makes sense to have a trusted director at the helm. Disney is no fool. The Josh Trank directed Fantastic Four Reboot by FOX in 2015 is the source of much derision and mockery.  And the 2005 attempt didn’t exactly set the world alight! Let’s hope the Disney version is better and doesn’t make a joke out of the Fantastic Four franchise.

Will you Watch the Fantastic Four?

Because the past few attempts at Fantastic Four movies were so dyer, will you be watching the new version of the movie? We should give it a chance as it will be a collaboration between MCU and Disney.

 

As of yet, no launch date has been confirmed. The only thing we know is that the movie is currently in development and will happen. Will this be in 2021 or 2022? Nobody outside of the studios knows the answer to that question. Let’s just hope they do the franchise justice this time!
