According to sources, Trank was sometimes indecisive and uncommunicative. Producers Simon Kinberg and Hutch Parker had to step in to help pull the film together, though sources stress that Trank was still on set and directing the film. (Were that not the case, the production could have run afoul of the Directors Guild of America.)

Just over three months from opening, Fox’s Fantastic Four has done re-shoots. Those were complicated because stars Miles Teller, Kate Mara and Michael B. Jordan had obligations on other films. The most recent round, which involved three days of re-shoots at the end of April, had to take place on weekends because of Teller’s work on Todd Phillip’s Arms and the Dude. Parker and Kinberg are said to have been heavily involved in those re-shoots, pulling them away from duties in Canada on X-Men: Apocalypse, which they also are producing.

Given the issues with Trank’s performance, the production added Stephen Rivkin (Avatar) to help pull the film together. Trank had hired his Chronicle editor, Elliot Greenberg, on the project.

So what's the over/under on Trank being a Marvel Studios mole?

I'm sure there was a passage in the Art of War about how to handle a rival who's making a pointless reboot to retain rights to a property that you want for yourself.

Sometime wonder if Lucas had never actually met anyone called Luke, just threw it in as another wacky name.

jennifer islam (silby), Sunday, 7 June 2015 17:41 (nine years ago) link

Serkis in motion capture + "Snoke" maybe = a lizard/reptile type villain? Would be innerestink.

Supreme Leader Skink

Star Wars Rebels is back on!

Their Darth Vader portrayal, so much more powerful than any Jedi left, so good.

I worry these guys are spreading themselves too thin

Number None, Tuesday, 7 July 2015 20:38 (nine years ago) link

hopefully starring channing tatum and jonah hill as chewbacca and han solo, respectively.

wizzz! (amateurist), Tuesday, 7 July 2015 22:35 (nine years ago) link

i kind of like the idea of a million "star wars" films made in widely varying styles and tones

maybe gaspar noe can make a film about the fleshpits of tatooine

david cronenberg can make one about people who like to have sex while crashing spaceships into each other

etc

wizzz! (amateurist), Tuesday, 7 July 2015 22:37 (nine years ago) link

this is gonna be like the marvel films shortly where i'm three behind isn't it

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 8 July 2015 03:32 (nine years ago) link

And you can re-create the plot of the ones you missed by mashing action figures together.

"hopefully starring channing tatum and jonah hill as chewbacca and han solo, respectively."

kinda hilarious how almost every line of that seems like they had to quickly cut away to omit an "... unlike the prequels!"

Gorefest Frump (Doctor Casino), Saturday, 11 July 2015 15:02 (nine years ago) link

I have high hopes, I guess, but JJ Abrams often disappoints. At least Damon Lindelof is not involved.

Big article and tons of photos in EW. Maybe they're sort-of-kind-of doing the Jacen Solo story after all?

Remember how we eventually learned that “Darth” is not a first name, but a kind of title? It appears the surname “Ren” is something similar.

“He is a character who came to the name Kylo Ren when he joined a group called the Knights of Ren,” Abrams says. But that’s as far as the writer-director will go. What are the Knights of Ren? You’re going to have to wait until Dec. 18 to find out.

“He is not your prototypical mustache-twirling bad guy,” Abrams offers. “He is a little bit more complex than that, and it was a great joy to work with Adam Driver on this role, because he threw himself into it in a deep and remarkable way.”

There are many implications to this piece of Kylo Ren’s history. If he had a different name before aligning with these mysterious knights, maybe we’ve heard it before. Maybe we know… his parents?

We’re definitely going to have to wait for that.

I might like you better if we Yelped together (Phil D.), Wednesday, 12 August 2015 15:03 (nine years ago) link

No mustache-twirling bad guys pls the Star Wars are known for their subtle and nuanced villains. /s

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Wednesday, 12 August 2015 16:14 (nine years ago) link

The second trailer has my hopes up but Abrams is generally such a hack and while pretty good at setup, he's so terrible at finishing stories.

nomar, Wednesday, 12 August 2015 16:18 (nine years ago) link

I thought Darth was short for Dark Lord of the Sith

Purves Grundy (kingfish), Wednesday, 12 August 2015 16:22 (nine years ago) link

Scholars disagree on that, apparently.

Kylo Ren's facemask looks like an aluminum can to me, but otherwise the released shots look pretty cool.

five six and (man alive), Wednesday, 12 August 2015 17:00 (nine years ago) link

I like it, resembles a 30's pulp villain or something.

I'm genuinely impressed with the look of what we've seen in trailers so far.

Colin Tervorrow confirmed to direct Episode IX

Number None, Saturday, 15 August 2015 19:25 (nine years ago) link

that name is extremely difficult to type for some reason

Number None, Saturday, 15 August 2015 19:26 (nine years ago) link

That's his Jedi name, right?
