Marvel wants to go all out in 2025, and those responsible are also trying to rehabilitate Fantastic 4 - and they desperately need a reboot like no other superhero franchise. Because the previous film adaptations of the Fantastic Four could all be thrown into the trash. The first films were produced by Bernd Eichinger, and he simply didn't have the financial resources to showcase the superhero team appropriately. But also the previous US adaptation with actors likecouldn't convince. Let's hope thatFantastic 4: First Steps, which will be set in the MCU, is finally the hoped-for cinematographic reconciliation with the Fanta 4 franchise. But Pedro Pascal as Mr. Fantastic and Vanessa Kirby as The Invisible Woman certainly give hope. We are very excited!Expected theatrical release: July 24, 2025
