Trank says they “consciously decided to not release anything official” until now.
In terms of plot and story, Trank was guarded but did say, “This is a modern telling of how these four iconic characters came together and came to be.”
Trank revealed that renowned composer Philip Glass is scoring the movie with Marco Beltrami.
The film recently did a few days of additional photography and it was to film some bits and pieces. Nothing major. They weren’t filming some huge new ending.
The original shoot was seventy-two days and they were on-schedule and on-budget.
The film is heavily influenced by David Cronenberg and Trank mentioned that Scanners and The Fly were big influences on the look of the film.
The film is an origin story and there are influences of what Kirby and Stan were doing in the 60’s all the way up into the present day.
The Ultimates was also an influence and a lot of the science specifics are there. They told me a lot of the means of transformation they took from the books.
Trank’s first cut of the film was around 2 hours and 10 minutes. He said the final film will probably be between 2 hours and 2 hours and 20 minutes.
Kinberg says there is an Easter egg in the teaser trailer.
They are very influenced by what Marvel has been doing regarding combined universes. Saying that, they admit it’s tricky to combine X-Men and FF because the X-Men films so far don’t acknowledge the Fantastic Four and the Fantastic Four takes place essentially in the same time period as the modern day X-Men movies.
Kinberg does confirm that there is a different approach to the Marvel movies at Fox than when they started making Marvel films at the studio. “There is an intent and want to be a part of a larger fabric and tapestry the way Marvel has done so brilliantly.”

That's exactly why I thought the trailer was bad lol. -
it a teaser not a trailer and the youtube comments..
i am not surprised -
LOL so as expected people are already turning around on this just like I had said on this board months ago. Internet fanboys are so transparent.
Personally? I think it looks like a standard 21st century sci-fi flick and not really like the F4. That's good for people who aren't Fantastic Four fans cause it makes the property appeal to them. They even took the classic circular logo and made it a square lmao. It definitely is the complete opposite of what Marvel Studios would've done with the property.
Which is what I would've liked to have seen (Marvel Studios' F4) since F4 is one of my favorite Marvel IP's as opposed to something like The Avengers which I never really liked. I'm a Cronenberg fan and The Fly is one of my all time favorite movies so it's interesting to see Trank take influence from that. I'll check it out on video though. I think Fury Road will be my only trip to the cinema this year unless something else come's out of left field. -
I may be alone in thinking this, but this could ? around and rival Avengers for best movie of 2015. Not numbers wise perhaps, but from a quality standpoint.

that was a lame ass trailer

You need to look at the 2015 slate again... -
I don't read spoiler articles on movie sites anymore so I have a question
Is Annihilus supposed to be in this movie? -

I stand by my post. They're promoting this as "from the studio that gave you DOFP" which was, in my opinion, best movie of the year. This teaser says they're trying to match or exceed it in quality. -
Yeah I also ready in other sites that it's gonna be more of a sci fi flick then a comic book movie.

They are also combining X-men and FF as well. -

No they're not.
They share the same writer but he said both will be set in their own stand alone universes which IMO is perfectly fine. Not everything needs to be interconnected. -
