New Fantastic Four movie director Josh Trank has been generous in spilling information on the movie. The director reportedly vanished on his social media accounts when filming for the movie started. He returned on Saturday announcing that principal photography on the filming had just finished. Trank teased in his Twitter a few details on the movie, and participated in a Q&A session answering fans questions.

The director also re-tweeted a photo from Jaylen Moore. It shows a windbreaker jacket (possibly the group's uniform) with a note saying:
"To Our Fantastic Cast Member: Jaylen Moore - Thank you for helping "The Fantastic Four" come to life. We could not have done this without you. Best wishes, 20th Century Fox & your producers"
Moore responded with a "Much #gratitude @20thcenturyfox & #TheFantasticFour cast, crew & family! #humbled #F4 #Classy #FOX #Marvel " captioning the photo.
Fans have asked the director to answer a few questions about the cast. Casting Michael B. Jordan as 'Human Torch' and Kate Mara as 'Invisible Woman ', fans wondered if they were still siblings, to which Trank replied "Minor change, they're still siblings."
He was also asked why he chose to make the Human Torch /Johnny Storm African-American, Trank replied, "I didn't choose to make Johnny black. I chose to make Michael (B. Jordan) Johnny."
He also that the Doctor Doom performance of Toby Kebbel "scared the crap out of him." Regarding the look of the team,he confirmed that the rest of the "Fantastic Four" will be wearing their trademark uniforms. Refusing to reveal any more details on their uniforms, he added "they're not tight, I can tell you that."
When asked about similarities to his 2012 feature film "Chronicle", the director said:
"This isn't a Chronicle sequel or reboot. It's a Fantastic Four origin. Same feel, maybe."
