Before Fantastic Four began filming, 20th Century Fox announced plans for a sequel with a scheduled release date of July 14, 2017.[1] Fox then rescheduled the release for June 2, 2017, with War for the Planet of the Apes taking its place on the July 14, 2017, slot.[2] It changed the release date again to June 9, 2017, to be two weeks after Star Wars: The Last Jedi's initial scheduled release date of May 26, 2017.[3]
After the film bombed at the box office, the sequel was cancelled. However, if a sequel were to be released, it would be filmed on a bigger budget, with the same cast but a new director. The film would also have a lot of humor and plenty of action when the superhero team discover that Doom had made a deal with Galactus to destroy Earth. On August 23, 2016, Actors Miles Teller and Kate Mara had expressed interest in starring in the sequel, while screenwriter Simon Kinberg is hoping to get the project made. In September 2015, Tommy Wiseau has expressed enthusiasm in directing a sequel, having personal admiration for the film.
In November 2015, the sequel was removed from Fox's release schedule.[4] In May 2016, Kinberg reaffirmed his intent to make another Fantastic Four film with the same cast.[5] Later that month, Toby Kebbell stated he had no interest in reprising his role as Dr. Doom if a sequel were to happen.[6] Both Miles Teller and Kate Mara said that they were open to returning for a sequel.[7] On February 24, 2017, when asked by Collider whether they would make another Fantastic Four movie, Kinberg stated "I have no idea. I think the truth is we would not do another Fantastic Four movie until it was ready to be made. One of the lessons we learned on that movie is we want to make sure to get it 100% right, because we will not get another chance with the fans".[8] On March 1, 2017, Kebbell told Hey U Guys that he would like to portrayed Doom agai only if Marvel buys the rights.[9][10]
