“When I look back on that, I should have just walked when that realization sort of hit me, and I feel embarrassed about that, that I didn’t just out of principle. Those aren’t the values I stand for in my own life; those weren’t the values then, or ever, for me. I’m somebody who always talks about standing up for what I believe in, even if it means burning my career out. I feel bad that I didn’t take it to the mat with that issue. I feel like I failed in that regard,” he said.
The “Fantastic Four” reboot received mostly negative reviews from critics and fans, and grossed only $56 million in the U.S and $168 million worldwide against an estimated budget of $155 million. It was the lowest grossing “Fantastic Four” movie to date and one of the lowest grossing films based on a Marvel property.
After acquiring 20th Century Fox, Disney now has the rights to the Fantastic Four and plans to introduce them into the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the future. A representative for Disney did not return
Of all the F4 Reed Richard is the only character in the team who can be rewritten without white privilege ... Its ok to racebend/genderbend character...Just be smart about it
*Adds not casting a Black Sue Storm to the list of poor ass decisions made for this Fantastic Four movie*
Omg this guy is an opportunist
Yes because Storm from the X-Men is already black, while Susan Storm is traditionally a blonde, white girl. The producers probably thought it was unnecessary to create two black superheros named Storm.
You can't polish a turd.
Every virtue seeking white person in Hollywood is digging for a story where they heroically stood up for somebody black. This is grotesque drama. You know the one thing all good people have in common? They don't feel a need to blast to everyone how good they are.
It would have made a lot more sense than having Sue white and Johnny black. The need to re-colour characters is tiresome though.
I am sick of this news. Its been 4 days i am continuously seeing it. Mr. tank, its better that black actress wasn't casted because this decision saved her from massive disappointment which could have been her career killer.
