“The best Marvel movie in years” 4 Stars, Empire“The Fantastic Four: First Steps marks a triumphant return” 4 Stars, HeyUGuys“you’ve never seen a marvel movie like this” 4 Stars, Dexerto“It's epic and awe-inspiring in all the right ways” Yahoo! Movies UK 

Monday, July 28: Marvel Studios’ “THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS” lands the No.1 spot in the UK & Ireland box office in its opening weekend, generating £8.14M over the weekend including previews. This release marks the biggest superhero opening since Deadpool & Wolverine in 2024, as well as the biggest Fantastic Four film of all time. 

 Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios’ “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” introduces Marvel’s First Family—Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they face their most daunting challenge yet. Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). And if Galactus’ plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren’t bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal.

Matt Shakman directs “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” and Kevin Feige is the producer. Louis D’Esposito, Grant Curtis, Tim Lewis and Robert Kulzer serve as executive producers.

 Marvel Studios’ “THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS” is in cinemas now
