Fantastic Four is a 2015 superhero film that is a reboot to the Storyverse Fantastic Four film series. It was directed by Josh Trank and featured Miles Teller as Mr. Fantastic, Kate Mara as Invisible Woman, Michael B. Jordan as the Human Torch, Jamie Bell as the Thing and Toby Kebbell as Doctor Doom. It was a financial and critical flop and is considered one of the worst superhero films of all time.
Tropes used in Fantastic Four (2015 film) include:
- Big Bad: Doctor Doom.
- Cain and Abel: Ben Grimm has an abusive brother who likes to yell "It's clobbering time".
- Continuity Reboot: Of the 2005 film duology.
- Darker and Edgier: The film has been described by Trank as a David Cronenberg superhero movie, which says a lot.
- Dull Surprise: Almost all the characters are emotionless, which was a deliberate part on Trank.
- Flipping the Bird: Von Doom does this to Harvey Allen.
- Race Lift: Johnny Storm and his father are Black in this film.
