Jon Watts is sharing a relatable truth: Sometimes directors get burnt out, too. The filmmaker, who singlehandedly revived the “Spider-Man” IP with his Tom Holland-led features, said during a recent masterclass at the Mediterrane Film Festival (via THR) that he exited fellow MCU project “ The Fantastic Four ” because he was just “out of gas.”

The blockbuster writer, director and producer sat for a revealing masterclass presentation in Malta at the Mediterrane Film Festival where he talked Marvel, 'Star Wars,' AI and his hope for more original movies.

In another timeline, Watts would've brought the Fantastic Four back after just tying off Spider-Man's first saga.
