Marking an expanded commitment to some of its most important franchises, Twentieth Century Fox has brought on comics superstar Mark Millar to serve as a creative consultant on the studio’s upcoming projects based on Marvel Comics properties.
Millar wrote several celebrated Marvel books such as The Ultimates, Civil War and Wolverine: Old Man Logan, before moving on to found Millarworld (millarworld.tv), where he continues to develop existing film franchise titles Wanted and Kick-Ass, as well as newer comic properties The Secret Service, Superior, and Nemesis — the latter also in development at Fox. Millar will work with Fox on developing new avenues for its “X-Men” and “Fantastic Four” tentpoles.
Commented TCF production president Emma Watts: “We are excited to be working with Mark. In addition to his groundbreaking Marvel work, he is simply one of the most original voices in comics today and will be an invaluable resource to us and to our filmmakers as we look for fresh opportunities to innovate within our shared Marvel universe.”
Upcoming for the studio is THE WOLVERINE, starring Hugh Jackman, directed by James Mangold; X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, helmed by Matthew Vaughn; and a reboot of “FANTASTIC FOUR, to be directed by Josh Trank (Chronicle).
“As someone who has spent his entire life obsessed with both comic-books and movies, this is essentially my dream gig as it’s a unique combination of both,” stated Millar. “I spent ten years working at Marvel and am really happy with the work I did on the comic side of things so the idea of working with these characters now in a brand new medium is enormously exciting for me. I really like the Fox team, love this bold new direction they have for their franchises and am proud to be working alongside some of modern cinema’s biggest talents. James Mangold is incredible, Matthew Vaughn’s one of my closest pals and Josh Trank gave us, in my opinion, one of the greatest superhero movies of the last decade with Chronicle. The invitation to join this crew was maybe the coolest phone-call I’ve ever had.”
i don’t remember mark miller or i don’t know Mark Miller so i don’t know what is going on around here and if you like rob to say to me with your big putetic word like (again your such a idiot learn and then you see)
like an asshole pardon me Anthony but this is for this idiot who is bottering everybody is time to stop this idiot Rob if hes puting a agresion coment like insult of everybodys
So chances are, that the new Fantastic Four will be part of the X-Men universe, since FOX is now going the Marvel route.
The first Fantastic Four film did apparenty have a scene where a photo in Victor Doom’s office showed him meeting Senator Kelly (who was actually Mysticle in disguise). But this was deleted from the film. I’m only interested in X-Men. Fantastic Four reboot looks like a disaster waiting to happen.
There already rumors that Days of Future Past will feature some of the actors from the main X-Men Movie trilogy.
I’m glad Fox is starting to bring the X-Men movies togther as one large universe like Marvel is doing with the Avengers.
The Wolverine will be better then Dark Knight Rises.
Let’s face facts; Marvel is better then DC.
Except for the X-Men, all other Marvel movies IHMO lack soul. Except for the first Iron Man, IMHO they are all fast food movies… SFX, explosions, oneliners… nowhere to be found are demand, drama and characters.
I think you have no soul. Marvel Films are the best. Case Closed.
This is going to be great!.. Mixed feelings about Fantastic Four in X-men films.. but I think it looks pretty cool.. They still family on the first place.
This does mean anything great. After all Lauren Donner is still the producer and she has final say on scripts, casting, and the direction of these movies.
