First confirmed on Ain't It Cool News last week by Marvel Studios CEO Avi Arad, today's The Hollywood Reporter reiterates that director Peyton Reed has exited Fox's FANTASTIC FOUR movie project. According to the Reporter, Peyton's departure was due to "creative differences". What specifically those differences were remains a mystery.

The studio still wants to release FF in December 2004 and it's drafted a shortlist of replacement directors. A screenplay is still being worked on by writer Mark Frost (TWIN PEAKS).
