The forthcoming "Fantastic Four" reboot is among one of the most highly anticipated upcoming Marvel movies that’s set to arrive over the next few years. While there are still details that we don’t know about the film, the information that has been revealed indicates that Marvel Studios wants to put a fresh spin on the iconic quartet of do-gooders. CinemaBlend was just fortunate enough to get some time with studio head honcho Kevin Feige, who shed some light on the film’s development. He not only revealed his team’s “focus” while making the movie but also recalled when knew that “90 percent of the work was done.”

Kevin Feige finds himself in an interesting position with this comic book flick, which has a date on the 2025 movie schedule. Like Spider-Man and the X-Men, FF is one of the properties that Feige worked on during the pre-Marvel Cinematic Universe era. CinemaBlend’s own Sean O’Connell spoke to the super producer amid the press day for Deadpool & Wolverine. When O’Connell asked about "The Fantastic Four," Feige spoke to director Matt Shakman’s flair for visuals, before emphasizing the core of the story.
