Superhero Bits: Fantastic Four Movies in Early 2024, Brendan Fraser on Almost Playing Superman and More

While we still have to wait to find out who will play Marvel's First Family in the MCU, director Matt Shakman has revealed when the 'Fantastic Four' reboot will begin filming. “Early next year is when we plan to go,” Shakman revealed in an interview with Collider. Plus, it looks like it's going to fill the filmmaker's plate for the next two years, aside from his work on Apple's "Godzilla" TV show, which he's currently finishing up:

"I'm still finishing up the Godzilla project you were talking about. We're talking about it, and have a few more months on it. 'Fantastic Four' is pretty much my life until Valentine's Day 2025."

Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer are writing the screenplay for the film, although no plot details have been revealed at this time. “Fantastic Four” is tentatively set to hit theaters on February 14, 2025.
