“But I don’t want to get in trouble with The Mouse, so none of you will find out,” she laughed, much to the studio audience’s disappointment.

The “mouse” you’re referring to is the executives/legal teams/masters at Disney. “Fantastic Four” is a revamp of the Marvel Cinematic Universe property, following Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox that brought the “Fantastic Four” property under Marvel Studios.

Shakman was tapped to direct the film, set for release on Valentine’s Day 2025, shortly after “Spider-Man” director Jon Watts exited the project last year.
