SPIDER-MAN 2, FANTASTIC FOUR 2 & DAREDEVIL Concept Art By Wil Rees
Hit the jump to check out awesome concept art that conceptual illustrator Wil Madoc Rees ("Thor") created for 20th Century Fox's Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer and Daredevil as well as Sony's Spider-Man 2.
Wil Rees is a conceptual illustrator and has worked on numerous big-budget Hollywood films. Today, I want to look at the artwork Rees created for three comic book movies: Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2 (2004), Mark Steven Johnson's Daredevil (2003) and Tim Story's Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007). I'm especially fond of the Spidey 2 artwork as it contains the "Go get 'em, Tiger" scene with Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst) encouraging Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) to embrace his superhero identity. There's also key frame of Dr. Otto Octavius / Doctor Octopus (Alfred Molina) escaping the hospital right after that chilling operation scene.
I think a lot of you will find the Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer key frame art even more tantalizing as it features a lot of unused scenes. At some point the script had the Fantastic Four confronting Doctor Doom (Julian McMahon) in an ancient Egyptian temple. There's also artwork of an unused Silver Surfer scene that would've taken place at Cambodia's Angkor Wat temple during a snowstorm.
