Chronicle director Josh Trank helms the new film and fans get a great look at this version of Doctor Doom, played by Kebbell.
There is a lot of pressure to breathe life into the comic book franchise as Marvel continues to succeed and the DC Universe is expanding.
“I get the skepticism going into it because the previous movies weren’t very good,” says co-screenwriter and producer Simon Kinberg of the 2005 and 2007 versions to EW. “It’s a very hard title to crack.”

Fantastic Four arrives in theaters on August 7, 2015.
