This isn't the first time Trank has discussed working on Fantastic Four. He reviewed his own movie on Letterbxd back in November 2019.

"I was expecting it to be much worse than it was. I literally haven't seen it since like two weeks before it came out, and I was in a heavily f--king traumatized state of mind. Why? Eh, save that for another time," he wrote. "Everyone in the film is a great actor, and overall there is a movie in there, somewhere. And that cast deserves to be in THAT movie. Everyone who worked on Fant4stic clearly wanted to be making THAT movie. But.... ultimately... It wasn't."

"What I can tell is there are TWO different movies in one movie competing to be that movie," he continued. "I was 29 years old, making my 2nd film, in a situation more complicated than anything a 2nd time filmmaker should've walked into."

He admitted in his review that he didn't regret "any part of it." As he put it, "It's a part of me."
