10 Most Outlandish Fantastic Four Rumours

Insiders claim Fantastic Four is a "mess" as behind the scenes battles rage on.

It would be a lie to say that the Fantastic Four is a fan-favourite team. Despite being Stan Lee's first creation and the fact that their initial success is responsible for the creation of the Marvel Universe, their popularity pales in comparison to the likes of The Avengers. Perhaps that's why there's little excitement surrounding this reboot, with most fans wishing that Marvel were doing for these characters what they did for the Guardians of the Galaxy. To dismiss the movie outright seems unfair though, especially given the talent involved. An impressive cast made up of the likes of Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan, and Jamie Bell, along with X-Men: Days of Future Past's Simon Kinberg on writing duties and Chronicle's Josh Trank in the director's chair surely points to this being a great movie? Quite possibly, and that's something moviegoers will discover for themselves in August. But Fantastic Four has been plagued with rumours about behind the scenes problems before even going before the cameras, and Trank is said to be at the heart of that problem. Then there are the sorts of rumours which have left fans upset about the direction these characters are being taken in, especially when it differs so much from the comic books. Here, you will find just ten of the most outlandish and shocking rumours about the troubled Fantastic Four production. From trashed houses to a certain comic book movie director apparently being brought in to oversee recent reshoots, it shouldn't take you long to see why fans are fretting about this adaptation. Of course, there are also plenty of rumours about surprise cameos and much more, so read on to find out what to expect this summer.
