Much like The Vision in Avengers: Age of Ultron, Jamie Bell's The Thing and his rocky final form in Josh Trank's Fantastic Four reboot was pretty much kept off official promo's for the movie. But that all changes now, with Empire revealing the first look at the post-transformation The Thing.
This CGI version of the well known character really seems to be playing up the 'made of rocks' angle of the character, and I kind of like the way it's as if a pile of rocks grew arms, legs, and a head. It's also nice that his face doesn't really have any definition (though I can't make out if this ever lovin', blue eyed Thing actually has blue eyes). The most disconcerting thing about Micheal Chiklis in the role from the original was that you could clearly make out his features under The Thing make up. I'm usually one for practical effects over CG, but that was just distracting.
The magazine also dropped images of Mister Fantastic's (Miles Teller) stretchy powers in action, as well as another look at the Negative Zone, the source of the group's powers in this new story.
Released: August 7th
Synopsis: FANTASTIC FOUR, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel’s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.
