News from Comic Con. According to several sources the director of the surprise hit Chronicle, a movie I very much liked, Josh Trank has been officially confirmed, although previously rumored, as the director for the rebooted Fantastic 4 franchise which is slated to begin filming after the new Wolverine movie. Buried in a couple of those reports is a note that he has also been linked to Sony’s Venom movie. Maybe Im just out of the loop, but this is the first I have heard of a film based on the Spider-Man villain/ant-hero. The big man deserves better than the Topher Grace debacle, so here’s hoping for a hit!
