Fox Reportedly Unhappy With Josh Trank's "Mess" Of A FANTASTIC FOUR Movie

[The_King_of_Everything]

Bleeding Cool reported last year that 20th Fox were in the process of looking for other writers and directors to tackle The Fantastic Four, but had no luck in finding anyone willing to take over in the midst of production. That rumour was dismissed at the time, and we heard nothing more until some recent rumblings of there maybe being some tension between the studio and Josh Trank.

While Matthew Vaughn was quick to sing the praises of the movie recently, they now claim to have heard that studio bosses are not pleased with how The Fantastic Four has turned out, with it being described by some as "Chronicle 2 rather than Fantastic 4." The site adds that a well-connected senior executive has told them that The Fantastic Four is a "mess" and that there is some major "disquiet" behind the scenes in regards to the current state of the movie. As a result, expensive rehoots are apparently being demanded, with set in Louisiana being rebuilt to accomodate these.

If this is true, it could explain why we've seen NOTHING from the movie. Could the release now be delayed? We'll have to wait and see, but be share your thoughts on this in the usual place.

Matthew Vaughn's quote doesn't seem that great either.

Here’s the exact quote from Vaughn (via Flickering Myth)

“I’ve seen the movie, it’s good… I thought Chronicle was a fantastic movie and [Josh] Trank has gone off and done his version of Fantastic Four. If you like Chronicle, then you’ll like this… We’re all backing Josh Trank’s vision… And hopefully the world will like Josh Trank’s vision.”
