Encyclopedic overview
Fantastic Four (stylized as FANT4STIC) is a 2015 superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team and the first reboot of the Fantastic Four film series. Directed by Josh Trank and written by Trank, Jeremy Slater, and Simon Kinberg, it stars Miles Teller, Michael B. Jordan, Kate Mara, Jamie Bell, Toby Kebbell, Reg E. Cathey, Tim Blake Nelson, and Tim Heidecker. The film follows a group of intelligent teenagers who build a transdimensional portal, causing them to acquire superhuman abilities.
Development of the film began in August 2009. Trank was hired to direct in July 2012 and the principal characters were cast in January 2014. Principal photography began in May 2014 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and lasted for two months. Unsatisfied with Trank's original cut, 20th Century Fox executives mandated reshoots, which took place in January 2015.
