For those unsure of the Fantastic Four and were lucky enough not to suffer through the first two movies, Josh Trank’s film revolves around a group of scientists who crash land on an alien planet and end up gaining super powers. As they try to maintain their gifts, a new evil rises out of the flames to try to take over the world. Starring Katie Mara, Miles Teller, Michael B. Jordan, Jamie Bell and Toby Kebbell (our favourite person ever, ) this is an exciting and promising trailer.
Are you happy now? Because I certainly am. Mainly, because I think it looks incredible. The tone seems to fit in with the new Marvel/Fox narrative –giving the beginnings a much darker and powerful start. There isn’t much shown here either and our actors look outstanding in their new roles, young but more vibrant and kinetic as the comic book heroes.
Fantastic Four has a lot to prove because it has a mammouth amount of naysayers saying it looks terrible. But this trailer is a lot better than Ant-Man, not as good as Age of Ultron and certainly gives us a fiery film to look forward to.
Now excuse me, I’m going to watch it again.
Fantastic Four is out August 6th
