Mark Millar is all over the Fantastic Four news for 20th Century Fox. The writer has been tapped to guide the studio on a number of their Marvel projects, including the upcoming reboot to the Fantastic Four franchise. Mr. Millar has tweeted his thoughts about the production so far, but the latest, puts Matthew Vaughn front and center.
Just off the phone with Fox and some excellent news – Matthew Vaughn is producing Josh Trank’s Fantastic Four reboot!

So, Millar, Vaughn and Trank all involved with the Fantastic Four movie. While the behind the camera team sounds impressive, we’ll only know the full extent how well this comes together when we see the new Fantastic Four on the big screen.

I can’t help but feel that until they treat Fantastic Four like the pulpy sci-fi adventure tale it is, emphasizing something other than the tired, old “we’re a family who argues but loves one another” bit, it will never work on screen.
