Matt Shakman Says 'Fantastic Four' Will Start Filming Spring Of 2024
Matt Shakman, director of the upcoming Fantastic Four, revealed to Collider filming for Marvel’s First Family will begin in London next year. Fans eagerly await the film to have a canonical film set within the Marvel Cinematic Universe and find out how the team will work into the new Multiverse saga of films from Phase Four.
Also, Shakman spoke on how the Fantastic Four film will be “unlike anything at Marvel you’ve seen before.” He continued by saying, “It’s different in so many ways. I wish I could be specific. I wish I could say more. But we are doing things very differently from a story standpoint, from an approach to the filmmaking standpoint, that really fits the material. I wish I could say more. I would love to, but I can’t.”

Even as the writing strike in Hollywood comes to a close, details regarding the film are sparse. Since Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, fans continue to pine for John Krasinski to return for more than a simple cameo. However, Krasinski spoke with The Wrap in 2022 and denied any efforts of returning to the role; “There aren’t any discussions at all; the only discussion I had was actually in the second-to-last-week of ‘Jack Ryan.’ Kevin Feige called and said would you ever fly to L.A. and play in our sandbox for a day? I was honored to do it. I flew right from Budapest when we wrapped and went right to the ‘Doctor Strange’ set. I’m a big fan of all those characters and that world, so to get to play in that sandbox for one day was a real thrill.”
Fans will continue to wait and pine for more details to emerge as the Hollywood writers return to their desks to get back to work.
