In the early 2000s, superhero films were on their way to become a dominant force in pop culture for the first time. Previously there were one -off hits like Tim Burton's "Batman", but Success of the 2000s X-Men put Marvel on the main map for the first timeAfter building the popularity of the "blade" in 1998. Sam Raimi and Sony's Spiderman took things to another level in 2002, and from there, he was out of the races. Then, Fox of the 20th century followed "X2: X-Men United" in 2003 with "Fantastic Four" by director Tim Stara, who became a solid hit for the studio. Also, it has almost created a common Marvel universe on the screen ... kind.

Ioan Grunfud showed Reed Richards, Aka Mr. Fantastic, in adapting the 2005 story to the family of Superheroic Comics of Stan Lee and Jackec Kirby. Essesica Alba is acting like Sue Storm, with Future Captain America Chris Evans playing Johnoni StormAnd Michael Chiclis shows the job. "Fantastic Four" hit theaters just as the X-Men franchise bloomed, With "X2" becomes a huge hit of box office and "X-Men: The Last Stall" firmly in the works. That's the case, Fox has noticed the opportunity to have fun.

In the deleted scene (which you can see below), Grunfud's reed is shown very short as it gets into the Hugh Jackecman Wolverine. Type of. It is a bizarre moment and, looking at it now, it is not difficult to see why they are wounded on the floor of the cutting room. In an interview with VultureGrunfud discussed the scene 20 years after the fact. Here's what he had to say about it:

"I don't know why he didn't do it in the movie. Staying the great Hugh Jackecman was pretty excitement because I absolutely love him as an actor and his wolverine. I am glad to have a chance to exist somewhere. It was a reconstruction, and I was in Vancouver,

It seems that this scene was something that was supposed to be included from the beginning and it sounds as if it were a little thrown together. CGI is rude, while the moment itself does not add much to the film, except for the technical establishment of a common universe between the F-Men and Fantastic Four franchises. While the idea of The Marvel Cinematic Universe would be born in 2008 with the announcement of "Ironian Man", This would be a Romanian idea at the time. It's easy to see why someone in Fox would be attracted to the concept at the time.

"For a short second, yes. That's a good question of the pub quiz," Grunfood added when the interviewer said he had technically played Reed Richards and Wolverine.

For what is worth, this would not be the first big, mainstream Marvel Crossover out of the comic books. TV film in 1988 "Incredible Hulk Returns" United Hulk and Thor On the screen decades before gathering in films such as "Avengers" and "Thor: Ragnarok". But having great superheroes to meet a big picture of movement? It was still a bold company in the early 2000s.

Disney eventually bought Fox in 2019, effectively completing the versions of the second of the "X-Men" and "Fantastic Four" as we know them (Although Oshosh Tran's 2015 "Fantastic Four" was a disastrous bomb It has already killed that property for good, long). In any case, Fox has never ended up joining the characters from these two universes together in nearly 20 years producing Marvel's films. Was that missed opportunity? Or blessing? We will never know, but this scene is as close as we got.

You can grab "Fantastic Four" on 2005 at Amazon's DVD.
