10 Interesting Subplots That Were Cut From Comic Book Movies

10) The Thing Raids A Terrorist Base – Fantastic Four

Recommended Videos

It’s likely that a few years from now the uncensored story of what really happened on Josh Trank’s Fantastic Four reboot will emerge, but until then all we’re left with is an unholy mess of a film. For a superhero movie that has remarkably little in the way of action, the decision to cut a major scene where The Thing assaults an enemy base is awfully confusing.

This particular sequence was featured prominently in trailers and TV adverts but is nowhere to be found in the final cut. In addition to showing the character in action, the setpiece would have eased the jarring transition from the team’s accident to showing them learning to control their powers a year later. Unfortunately, it’s unlikely that we’ll ever get to see the scene now, short of it being leaked, of course.
