God Damn-It.
I come back from vacation, hoping for some good news on the Ioan front (a new role, Alice is pregnant, etc.) and instead I find out that 20th Century Fox is remaking Fantastic Four. None of the cast is coming back, and they're going to try to make the films more serious (the article says more like Iron Man, but I haven't seen it yet, so I can't judge.)
Were the original two REALLY so bad that you need to reboot it after less than two years? (Remember, FF2 came out in July of 07) . And yes, the two films were silly. But the acting (with one exception) wasn't bad, and there's something to be said for light comedy fare.
The project's just in the development stage right now, so no news on casting. They better get someone pretty damn spectacular as Reed, that's all.

*Sigh*. Ioan just cannot catch a break, can he? Well, at least "The Kid" looks to be a go, so there's a chance I'll be able to see him in something in the near future.
