First thing that you need to know about the Fantastic Four is that Matt Shakman is directing the film. Originally it was going to be Jon Watts, the director of the Spiderman homecoming trilogy. However, he decided to take a break from directing superhero films. And I would definitely say that he earned it. After directing Spiderman homecoming far from home and of course no way home.

So Needless to say he had some success in the past.
