With the global launch of X-Men: Days of Future Past behind him there’s no rest for Simon Kinberg. The producer/writer is on the set of the Fantastic Four reboot. Movie franchises starring the Children of the Atom and Marvel’s First Family are both controlled by Fox.

 

In a new interview Kinberg tells The Daily Beast the tone of the Fantastic Four will be different:

 

“The tone of this movie will feel as unique as when you saw Iron Man, X-Men, or Batman Begins for the first time.

It’s not as goofy as the first movies; it has humor in it, but the humor is much more real and comes from character, not pratfall jokes. It’s a much more dramatic film than it is a comedy. I would say it falls somewhere between Raimi’s first couple of Spider-Man movies and Chronicle.”

 

Josh Trank (Chronicle) is directing the reboot.
