'Fantastic Four' Release Date August 2015; Fox Asks For Re-Shoots of Certain Scenes Found Similar to 'Chronicle'
It has been reported that a few scenes from the much-awaited movie of the year, Fantastic Four reboot, needs to be re-shot since the Fox production house is unhappy with the film. Reportedly, they have described the film as a mess and strikingly similar to the sci-fi movie Chronicles. The director of the film, Josh Trank directed the movie Chronicles in 2012.
Fantastic Four was originally released in 2005 starring Ioan Gruffudd, Michael Chiklis, Chris Evans and more.
It has been reported that the sets are being built again at the original location where the entire film was shot in Louisiana. Reportedly, Trank was asked by Fox productions to re-shoot a few scenes to add a couple of stunts and sprinkle it with action. It is believed that it will take around a one month's time to re-shoot the identified scenes and photographs to finalize the film.
If sources are to be believed, the entire crew of the film was not happy with Trank's behavior on the movie sets. It has been alleged that Trank used to damage the sets and terribly misbehave with the counterparts, often being so high and not being able to speak properly. Though not officially announced and confirmed, Fox production's CEO and chairman regretfully apologized to the crew member's for Trank's unacceptable behavior.
Fantastic Four is scheduled to be released on August 7, 2015. Even though the shooting for the movie was wrapped up six months ago, the official trailer is yet to be released. It is speculated that the official trailer will be released along with Fox production's thriller Kingsman: The Secret Service, which is scheduled to hit theaters in February.
The movie stars Jamie Bell, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan, Miles Teller, and Toby Kebbell. The film is a story of four people that are sent to a different universe from where they derive their powers for survival.
