Way back in March, we brought you the news when Warner Bros. Pictures hired director Josh Trank (Chronicle) to direct the big-screen adaptation of Christian Gossett‘s sci-fi/fantasy comic series The Red Star, published by Archangel Studios and Image Comics.
Now, Deadline reports that 20th Century Fox has now hired Trank to helm their planned reboot of The Fantastic Four. The film will include a new cast, and production is said to be planned just after The Wolverine and director Matthew Vaughn’s forthcoming X-Men: First Class sequel.
No release date has been announced for Fantastic Four.
