The highly anticipated Fantastic Four reboot began production at Baton Rouge’s Celtic Media Centre under the working title “Henry Street” today.
The movie stars Toby Kebbell as Dr. Doom, Tim Blake Nelson as Harvey Elder/Mole Man, Miles Teller as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Kate Mara as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm/The Thing, and Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch.
Mara recently said this version of the movie will have a dark side, too. “The whole thing will be different than anything I’ve ever done,” she said. “I really loved (director) Josh Trank’s take on it, and I’m a fan of his last film, ‘Chronicle,’ which was like an anti-superhero movie — really dark, which is what I like. I like things that are rooted in reality and that are dark and not what you expect. And I think that that’s probably what ‘Fantastic Four’ will be.”
Fantastic Four will hit theaters on June 19, 2015.
