RUMOR: Fox Not Renewing The Rights to Fantastic Four!

RUMOR: Fox Not Renewing The Rights to Fantastic Four!

This is the third tip we have recieved from this guy today, but this news is by far the most interesting! Hit the jump for all the details...

Via the Marvel Cinematic Universe Fan page on Facebook, the Admin has just recieved a tip that 20th Century Fox is giving up the rights to The Fantastic Four and the rights are reverting back to Marvel!

Here's the quote: "Insider news: This is my last piece of inside news for now, but it is a good one. Marvel Studios is going receive the film rights to another of there comic book properties owned by FOX. Fox is going to opt not to renew the rights to this property. ITS CLOBBERIN' TIME!"



So, what do you lot think of this news? Finally we can have the likes of Galactus facing off against the Avengers! And maybe the rights have already reverted back and Galactus will be the villain of The Avengers? Probably not but chances are that if this is true in The Avengers 2 we will be seeing the likes of The Fantastic Four, Galactus and Silver Sufer! And, we will finally get to see Hulk and The Thing face off! Anyway,lets calm down for a second. Treat this with a grain of salt but if true (and it probably is)then this should be interesting!

If this is true then Marvel has a chance to make cinematic history and do something never done before.

@SuperDude Yeah I'm a little suspicious too. They claim that Enchantress will be in Thor 2, but we've heard the story before, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Still, the idea of Fantastic Four being in the MCU is just amazing.

PLEASE BE TRUE! PLEASE BE TRUE! PLEASE BE TRUE!

The possibilities are endless!!! After hearing that Marvel are rolling out even more movies each year this may top it as THE best CBM news of the year so far!!!

If true, it has my vote!

sorry guys, DCMarvelFreshman did some digging and the facebook page is full of shit! josh just broke the news to me on the chat :( and that means the other 3 scoops were BS aswell eg the enchantress in thor 2 and benedict cumberbatch in a marvel movie, they did it to get attention.
Scion
Scion - 8/12/2011, 3:11 PM
MM, I'm actually pissed, that means he lied to us (the admins of the page as well) I guess they expect fans to run off and spread the news and we did just that. I really am sorry. F*ck.

If this were true could Marvel make an Anniliators movie? What I mean is who has the rights to Gladiator .

ahhhhh man and i had my hopes up and even drew an idea of what i think Marvel Studios galactus could have been like

I hope Marvel does eventually get the rights back.
But knowing Fox, they're probably reading this, and are gonna pump out a shitty movie to keep them.

I really hope it is true, I want to see The Avengers fight Dr. Doom.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bring on Big G and the FF bitches!
CorndogBurglar
CorndogBurglar - 8/12/2011, 5:49 PM
we still got hope. Nothing from the FF universe has come been done in some time, and I find it hard to believe that Fox is seriously considering a new FF movie with the bad reception of the last 2.

its gotta be close to reverting anyway.
MrAnonymous2013
MrAnonymous2013 - 8/12/2011, 7:37 PM
It would make perfect sense. It would explain the miraculous recovery of Johnny Storm to reunite the FF just in time for Marvel to announce they regained the rights.
