I understand that Fox is already developing a new Fantastic Four film with Dr. Doom as a villain, but I am unsure if it will work. The Fantastic Four has a poor history within film, and I do not see how making the team teenagers/young adults will work unless they drastically change the backstory. Dr. Doom might be Marvel’s most recognizable villain (Loki and Magneto could argued) and has some anti-heroic qualities. Throughout his history within comics, he has always been a man of his word and often aided the superheroes. Furthermore, he many of his decisions are made for the good of his Latverian people. I believe if the Fantastic Four reboot fails, Fox should consider making Dr. Doom a protagonist and highlight his backstory independent of the Fantastic Four.
