10 Directors Who Were PISSED OFF At Film Premieres

10. Josh Trank Hated The Final Cut Of His Movie - Fantastic Four

Much has been written about the intensely troubled production of 2015's Fantastic Four reboot, most of it focused on the acrimonious relationship between studio Fox and director Josh Trank.

Depending on whose side you take, Fox either neutered the rising filmmaker's ambitious attempt at a unique superhero movie, or Trank was a volatile, uncommunicative presence on set with rumoured substance abuse issues.

Either way, Trank was hugely unhappy with the end result of the movie, and the evening before it opened, he posted a since-deleted tweet where he effectively blamed Fox for preventing him from delivering the superior version of the film he was hoping to create.

It's especially interesting as Trank actually attended the L.A. premiere of the movie the night before, and though the premiere itself went ahead without incident, it's clear from his tweet the next night that he was not-so-subtly infuriated over the state of the film.
