It was a film made with love, long nights, and big dreams. But sadly, the executive producer who owned the rights never intended for it to be released. So it was shelved.<\/p>\n<p>We were devastated. Over time, bootleg copies of our film spread through conventions, fan circles, and even YouTube, slowly building a passionate following. Then, in 2015, the documentary &#8220;Doomed! The Untold Story of Roger Corman&#8217;s The Fantastic Four,&#8221; created by Marty Langford, brought our story into the spotlight and helped grow our community even further.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, Joseph Culp (who played Dr. Doom) helped lead a movement to finally get our film officially released. I proudly signed the petition and joined the fight, like so many of you. But still, nothing. No release. No acknowledgment. Three big-budget Fantastic Four films came and went\u2026 and not one recognized our version. It was as if we never existed. Until now. Last April, out of the blue, I received a text from Rebecca Staab, the incredible actress who played Sue Storm, saying that Grant Curtis, one of the producers from Marvel Studios, would be calling me. As I read her message, my brain started spinning. &#8220;Wait&#8230; they&#8217;re doing a new F4 film\u2026 and Marvel wants to talk to me?!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Then my phone rang.<\/p>\n<p>It was Grant, calling from London. He told me what happened to our film was not right. He said they&#8217;d watched it several times and truly understood what it was about: family. He loved the dynamic between the characters, especially between me (Ben Grimm) and Alex Hyde-White (Reed Richards), and said he hoped to honor that spirit in the new film. Then he said something I&#8217;ll never forget: They wanted our Fantastic Four family in their movie. My mind was blown.<\/p>\n<p>I also want to give a special &#8220;Thank you!&#8221; to Rebecca Staab, who set everything in motion. She and her manager reached out to Marvel&#8217;s casting team, Sarah Finn and Molly Doyle, and pitched the idea that got the ball rolling.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"560\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">This might sound dramatic, but I think this is one of the most important photos in Marvel Comics history.<\/p>\n<p>Pictured: the original Fantastic Four cast from the unreleased 1994 film.
