Helmed by WandaVision director Matt Shakman, the movie reboots the Fantastic Four film series, which is based on the Marvel Comics super-team. It comes ten years after the last Fantastic Four film flopped at the box office and received scathing reviews.

With a starry ensemble cast, the retro-futuristic, 60s-inspired movie introduces Marvel's “First Family” — Pascal’s Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Kirby's Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn's Johnny Storm/Human Torch and Ebon Moss-Bachrach's Ben Grimm/The Thing.
