5. Fantastic Four 3

Fantastic Four

Despite the fact that the first two movies were terrible, there were indeed plans for a third Fantastic Four at Fox. The tepid response to 2007’s Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver meant that this one never got much further than the discussions phase, but a lot of information about the comic book adaptation has found its way online over the years.

The plan apparently was to add Djimon Hounsou as the Black Panther (whether he’s another of those characters both Marvel and Fox hold the rights to isn’t clear) and both Doctor Doom and Silver Surfer would have returned in prominent roles.

There aren’t really any solid details about what the story would have involved, but we’re very glad that this particular comic book movie never came to fruition,  as we would have probably never got to see Chris Evans suit up as Captain America for a start.
