Josh Trank & Josh Gad Deny 'The Fantatsic Four' Rumors

Yesterday the internet blew up when first word that Frozen and Jobs star Josh Gad was possibly up for the role of Ben Grimm in The Fantastic Four reboot. Well both the actor and director have come out to deny such rumors:

Everyone please calm down. There is no truth to rumor of me playing Grimm . Besides, I'm too busy prepping to play a young Luke Skywalker.

Lets just hope FOX isn't pulling a Roger Corman and piece together a movie that will never be released just to retain the film rights like back in 94.
