It doesn’t sound like it’s the easiest thing in the world to get a Marvel Studios film made these days. I mean, it was never really easy to begin with, but now if you’re a filmmaker with a vision, you have to check in with the man himself (Kevin Feige) to make sure that your own vision fits in with the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe at-large, which is quite…large.
One interesting filmmaker who I hope will still have a crack at this world is Noah Hawley. He already had one interesting show hit in the form of Legion, but he’s expressed interest in making a Doctor Doom flick at Marvel. Speaking with Uproxx, he gave a bit of an update on what the film is and gave a mild update.
“Yeah, I mean, it combined genres. And it’s sort of a Cold War parallel film. And I really like it. I’ve been too busy to really lean on them, and they certainly haven’t called me on the phone. And during my sit down with Kevin Feige, when he asked about the Doctor Doom movie, he said, ‘Are you still working on it?’ And I said, ‘Should I still be working on it?’”

The interviewer went on to ask Hawley how Feige responded, and while Hawley seemed to change the subject, the subject he switched to was actually pretty interesting.
“I said, ‘I assume you guys have a plan in a drawer somewhere for the Fantastic Four.’ And he smiled a little bit, but would neither confirm nor deny. But yeah, I think it would be a great comic book movie certainly.”
So, what does this mean for Doctor Doom? Who’s to say? I’d honestly be surprised if this ever got made, but what’s not surprising is that Marvel Studios seems to be in the midst of developing their approach to the Fantastic Four. We know it’s coming. Now, it’s just a matter of when.
