We’ve seen absolutely nothing in the way of promotional material from 20th Century Fox’s superhero reboot The Fantastic Four, but we do now have an official synopsis for the Josh Trank-directed film, which has made its way online via Rotten Tomatoes. Of course, this being The Fantastic Four, it’s giving very, very little away…
The Fantastic Four, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel’s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.
