Several mistakes made by 2015’s Fantastic Four have been avoided by The Fantastic Four: First Steps before the film has even been released.

First Steps director Matt Shakman has revealed the designation of the Earth we'll visit in the reboot, while four more villains have been confirmed for the movie. Read on for

The decision to set The Fantastic Four: First Steps in a retro, 1960s-inspired world couldn’t have come easy. For one, it meant the entire film would take place in a multiverse away from the traditional Marvel Cinematic Universe. Also, it meant the production would have to build all of these sets from the ground up.

The pendulum has swung in the opposite direction as of late, with games like Marvel Rivals and the upcoming Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls going a more stylized route, but even those games can’t escape the MCU-ification of their characters.

Titled Fantastic Four: First Steps #1, the one-shot comic book hit the shelves of stores on July 9 and conveys what happens with the titular group prior to the events of the forthcoming Matt Shakman-helmed flick, The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

First Steps will feature Julia Garner as Silver Surfer, and there's a Marvel animated series you should watch beforehand.

First Steps is holding up well as its July 25 release nears, as an estimated $25 million Thursday debut points to an opening weekend of $125 million - $155 million. Read on for details!

First Steps is an American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics team the Fantastic Four. It's the 37th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the second reboot of the Fantastic Four series.
