Everything to Know Before Watching The Fantastic Four on Disney+
If you are ready to enjoy The Fantastic Four: First Steps with your family at home, here are important points to consider before hitting play.
Availability and Audience
After a long wait, the newest Marvel Cinematic Universe movie is now available on Disney+. While it attracted large audiences in theaters, it’s time to see how it performs on TV.
Unique Approach to the Story
This Fantastic Four film differs notably from previous versions. It does not include an origin story—no space mission, cosmic rays, or human experiments take center stage. Although, brief glimpses of their space mission are shown.
Marvel Studios has taken the same approach as with Spider-Man in the 2017 movie, Spider-Man: Homecoming.
Setting and Characters
- The Fantastic Four’s universe is Earth-828, where there are only four superheroes.
- Trailers reveal they have previously saved their world from multiple threats.
Villains in the Movie
The film features multiple villains instead of a single main antagonist.
“No, we are pointing towards Galactus or even Silver Surfer.”
Summary
This film offers a fresh take by skipping the origin story and introducing a complex universe with several villains, promising a new experience for fans.
