Rumors: Joe Carnahan, David Yates And James McTeigue Being Considered For ‘Fantastic Four’ Reboot? Bruce Willis Wanted To Voice The Thing?

And let’s be clear: who the studio wants to helm the film is one thing; whether or not those directors want to helm the film is another. If any of these guys ended up directing the film, I’d be genuinely surprised. Based on their prior work, a Fantastic Four film just doesn’t seem like something that they’d be interested in having on their filmographies.
Willis looks the part, no doubt. That may sound inconsequential considering his performance would be determined primarily by CGI animators (the possibility of motion capture notwithstanding), but having a recognizable face to go with the voice would, I’d imagine, make it easier for audiences to perceive that animated figure as being an actual person.
Between Willis and Brody, this is a Fantastic Four team I could get behind.
