It looks like moving Fantastic Four away from "War of the Worlds" worked out in the end. Sony announced on Monday that it will release "Bewitched" two weeks earlier on June 24th. The film, starring Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell, will now face Warner Bros.' "The Dukes of Hazzard" and Disney's "Herbie: Fully Loaded" on the new date. That leaves Fantastic Four as the only wide release on July 8th.
In early February, 20th Century Fox moved the comic book adaptation away from director Steven Spielberg's "War of the Worlds," which were both scheduled for the Fourth of July weekend. The Tom Cruise-starrer is the only wide release for the holiday frame and gets an early start on Wednesday, June 29, giving it a six-day opening run through Independence Day on the following Monday.
When Fantastic Four first moved, it also faced Universal's "The Skeleton Key", starring Kate Hudson, but the supernatural thriller got pushed back to August 12.
Simon Kinberg on Writing Fantastic Four

Martin A. Grove at The Hollywood Reporter has published an excellent interview with Fantastic Four writer Simon Kinberg. Here's a clip on Dr. Doom in the movie:
"The biggest thing I did on that movie, I think, was transforming the villain of the film. That was an ongoing and continuous process over the span of production because we just needed to make sure that we got the villain right because he is probably the most famous villain in the Marvel universe -- Dr. Doom. It actually was the basis for so many different villains and so many different comic books and even Darth Vader. He's the sort of uber-villain that they needed to make sure they really nailed and Julian McMahon plays him in the movie and did a fantastic job with him. But I was also working on the other characters and the other scenes and the action sequences that always transform as you're suddenly in the space and there aren't walls that are supposed to be walls and stuff like that. That was also a very fun process. I went up to Vancouver a few times to work closely with Tim and the cast. As somebody who was just a huge fan of the comics, it was just a thrill to suddenly see The Thing played by Michael Chiklis actually embodied and walking around was a pretty surreal stunning incredibly exciting thing -- no pun intended."
