Quite possibly the most pointless movie I've ever seen. Nothing significant happens whatsoever. It takes around an hour for the title characters to gain their powers, after which point the movie completely bypasses any semblance of a second act and rushes through a brief and laughably bad final act. The film was poorly conceived and clearly only made so that Fox wouldn't lose the rights back to Marvel.
This 2015 film about the Fantastic Four came out before the MCU began. Four young people grow up and join forces to fight former their teammate, Dr. Doom, and the strange world that he claimed as his own after an experiment goes awry. Tedious, painful to watch and a bit hard to fully follow, F4 is a massive dud from beginning to end. Miss this.

Sue Storm: Music is just a series of altered patterns. The musician creates the pattern and makes us anticipate a resolution... then holds back. Makes you wait for it. There's patterns in everything and everyone.
Trivia: The film had a notorious production, with many rumors swirling throughout. Amongst the (alleged) things to occur during filming were: a last-minute budget cut that meant most of the major action-scenes had to be removed and the film had to be restructured; director Josh Trank becoming so disillusioned with filming that he showed up on set noticeably drunk on several occasions; and massive reshoots having to be done to rework the entire film after disastrous feedback from producers and executives.

Chosen answer: No, no one from the film asked him to do a cameo. Stan Lee has said he never requests a cameo and waits to be asked.

I read on IMDb that he declined to make a cameo in this movie.
I've never heard him say he declined the cameo. I think maybe the entry was made from an assumption of what Lee told Larry King. Lee mentioned he wasn't in one of the X-Men films or this film and said sometimes the films are shot too far away and he can't travel half way around the world to be in a cameo. But this film was shot primarily in Louisiana and did have a scene shot in Los Angeles supposedly.
