Fantastic Four Critics Consensus. Marred by goofy attempts at wit, subpar acting, and bland storytelling, Fantastic Four is a mediocre attempt to bring Marvel's oldest hero team to the big screen. Marvel Studios shocked everyone at Disney Investor Day 2020 with the reveal that Fantastic Four would be returning to the big screen with Spider-Man 3 director Jon Watts helming the upcoming project.

Marvel is working on a 'Fantastic Four' reboot.

Marvel Studios' president Kevin Feige finally confirmed what fans have long speculated during Disney's investor day presentation on Thursday.

'I'm happy to announce a film about one of the truly iconic Marvel families, in fact, Marvel's first family, Fantastic Four,' Feige said, closing out a round of many Marvel film and show announcements.

'We're working on a feature now and it will be directed by the director of our recent 'Spider-Man' films, Jon Watts,' Feige added.

The comic includes the heroes Susan Storm/the Invisible Woman, Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Ben Grimm/Thing, Johnny Storm/Human Torch.

That's a big deal.

It's Disney's first real foray into playing with some of the Marvel characters it gained from its 20th Century Fox acquisition in 2019. The Disney/Fox deal gave the Mouse House the rights to characters including the X-Men, Deadpool, and Fantastic Four.

Disney purchased Marvel and 5,000 of its characters in 2009 for $4 billion. However, Marvel previously sold off some of its more lucrative characters, including Spider-Man and the X-Men to other studios (Sony and Fox, respectively) in order to stay afloat.

If any previous Fox-owned Marvel characters could use a reprieve, it's certainly the First Family of Marvel.

While Fox struck gold with the 'X-Men' franchise, the studio consistently struggled to get a good version of 'Fantastic Four' off the ground.

Fox's first two attempts at 'Fantastic Four' adaptations, starring Jessica Alba, Michael Chiklis, Ioan Gruffudd, and Chris Evans (who later played Captain America in the MCU), were both panned by fans and critics alike.

And then there's the 2015 Josh Trank-directed reboot attempt, which sits at 9% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Trank reviewed his film honestly last year on social platform Letterboxd saying the final film contains 'two different movies in one movie competing to be that movie.'

Feige's confirmation of a 'FF' reboot has restored faith in fans who are hopeful that we may see a screen-worthy version of the characters because of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's pretty flawless track record (aside from 'Thor 2').
