Marvel Says New Fantastic Four Movie Is Going In Surprising Direction

It’s been seven years since the last Fantastic Four movie disappointed fans, but now Marvel Studios has regained the rights and planning for a new film project for a 2025 release. One producer hinted that fans would be surprised by the studio’s direction for the new film. 

Speaking to Deadline, Marvel’s Nate Moore said, “We have Matt Shakman directing, who’s so talented and who did WandaVision for us, and I think people are going to be pretty surprised by what we’re doing.”

Disney and Marvel have reported that no cast is confirmed yet, but Marvel producer Kevin Feige said the cast would feature a blend of established Hollywood stars and fresh new faces. 

Feige said, “I think the MCU is a beautiful combination of both (established actors and new faces). I think you look no further than Simu in Shang-Chi, like Chris Hemsworth, like Tom Hiddleston, like Tom Holland, an actor that hadn’t been seen by a tremendous amount of people before, or you have a Benedict stepping into Doctor Strange or Christian Bale stepping into Gorr in our Thor film. It is always a beautiful combination of both, and it really is about the search for the best actor for the job whether that actor is known to the world yet or not.”

The film is set to be released on Valentine’s Day 2025.
