Fantastic Four (2015 film)

Fantastic Four was a 2015 live-action film based on the comic book, directed by Josh Trank and featuring an ensemble cast of Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan, Jamie Bell, and Toby Kebbell. It is the first reboot of the Fantastic Four film series. It was noted for being a Troubled Production because of Trank's abusive behavior on the set.

Due to the critical and financial failure of the reboot, the film rights for Fantastic Four reverted to Marvel once Marvel acquired 20th Century Fox.
