- FANTASTIC FOUR REBOOTS
It's been some time since it was first announced that 20th
Century Fox is planning a reboot of the Fantastic Four film franchise.
Trank makes his big screen directorial debut with Chronicle
on February 3rd and, with it, already has a connection to both the studio and
the superhero genre.
Fantastic Four, Marvel's self-proclaimed "World's
Greatest Comic Magazine", first hit the stands in 1961. Its debut is
generally considered the beginning of the "silver age" of comics and
the real beginning of the Marvel Comics universe that exists to this day.
The property has been adapted twice before for the big screen
with Fantastic Four in 2005 and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer in
2007. Both were directed by Tim Story.
Trank's involvement in the reboot is likely contingent on
Chronicle's box office performance and a decision is not expected to be reached
until next month at the earliest.
