Another Marvel film that is arriving is a new rebooted version of the Fantastic Four as it’s a second chance for Marvel to get it right following the tepid reception of its 2005 film and its sequel. The young-adult series will also be in store as both Divergent and The Hunger Games arrive to bring in bigger stories of female empowerment though the latter is going to be more explosive than its previous film.
