A couple of places around the web are reporting that the plot synopsis for Fantastic Four 2 has been released. I personally can neither confirm nor deny the authenticity of this… but several other sites out there that I respect are saying it is. So there you go.
The good folks over at Canmag gives us this outline of the plot:
Marvel’s first family of superheroes, The Fantastic Four, meets their greatest challenge yet in Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer as the enigmatic, intergalactic herald, The Silver Surfer, comes to Earth to prepare it for destruction. As the Silver Surfer races around the globe wreaking havoc, Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben must unravel the mystery of the Silver Surfer and confront the surprising return of their mortal enemy, Dr. Doom, before all hope is lost.
Ok, now let’s just assume for a moment that this is all legit. To me, that’s a pretty solid sounding basis for the next Fantastic Four film. Now, we already know what the “secret” of the Silver Surfer is (Galactus), but seeing a Silver Surfer on screen is going to be pretty damn cool… as long as they can figure out a way to make sure he doesn’t just look sorta silly on screen (I mean come on… you have to admit the POTENTIAL for high cheese is there when the dude is called “The SIlver Surfer” and flies around on a cosmic surf board).
Also, it looks like the studio heard everyone complaining about the title “Fantastic Four: The Next Chapter” and have apparently changed the name to “Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer”.
Your thoughts?
