Fans of the Fantastic Four have created a petition on Change.org asking Fox to sell the rights to future Fantastic Four movies. Below is what the petition states.
Josh Tank’s Fantastic Four was a major disappointment. Critics and fans of the film panned the movie and performed poorly at the box office. Please sign this petition so we can have a great adaptation of Marvel’s first family once and for all. Sign this petition also because WE DON’T WANT ANOTHER SEQUEL!!!!! Let the fans have what they want and MAKE FOX SELL THE RIGHTS BACK TO MARVEL!!!! (Change.org)
I would love Fox to hand back the rights to Fantastic Four back to Marvel. I think they might be willing to give it back to Fox but they will want something in exchange. Fox is hoping to get negotiate the rights for an X-Men television franchise (see article here). They could give Fantastic Four back for the television rights to an X-Men franchise like New Mutants, X-Force, or Excalibur.
