I didn’t love Fantastic Four. As a matter of fact it’s a bad film… however I’d be lying if I didn’t admit I had some fun watching it.
As we mentioned a couple of months back, Fantastic Four 2 has been green lit and is already in pre-production. There has been some speculation floating around about who the bad guy in the sequel will be. Well wonder no longer… It’s Doom again. The good folks over at SuperHero Hype give us this:
Fantastic Four director Tim Story told Latino Review this weekend that Doom will indeed be back for the sequel:
Before I hopped on my ride to the airport back to NYC I asked him when does shooting start, Story replies, “August 1st up in Vancouver” And finally I asked Story that towards the end of the film it left wide open that Doom will be back, so will he? “Yes that I can tell you. He will be back in full DOOM, not like we had him in the first film.”
So there you have it. Now, most people hated the Doom character in the first film… but I actually thought he had some great potential. Here’s hoping they tap some of that better than they did in the first. He could be a fantastic screen villain… if used right.
