Marvel boss Kevin Feige confirmed a theory about the film Fantastic Four and it makes you want to see more.
Marvel has a lot in stock for the next few years. Between Deadpool & Wolverinewhich breaks pre-sale records, Daredevil will bring back the best aspect of the Netflix series and the movie Fantastic Four which is coming next year, the firm headed by Kevin Feige hopes to emerge from the trough experienced with the flops Ant-Man 3 et The Marvels.
The most scrutinized project of the lot is probably the feature film centered on Reed Richards’ quartet. For communication on this reboot, Marvel is gradually distiling information. In terms of casting, apart from the fantastic 4 themselves, we learned that the big bad Galactus would, a priori, be part of the adventure (and Marvel needs it) or that we would have a female version of the Surfer ‘money. Great information, but nothing really concrete to sink your teeth into in terms of history, until Kevin Feige finally leaves some clues.
Fantastic 60’s
It’s certain The Official Marvel Podcast that the president of the Disney-owned firm gave clues about the highly anticipated reboot of the Fantastic 4and what he implies is the quasi-confirmation of a theory that many fans have had for a while on the various promotional posters for the film.
“A lot of smart people noticed that this cityscape didn’t exactly look like the New York we know, or the New York that existed in the ’60s in our world. And these are intelligent observations, I must say. »
In addition to confirming the period in which the film takes place, the 60s, Kevin Feige, without really saying it, almost affirmed that Fantastic Four would take place in a parallel universe to that of other MCU films. And when you look at the retro-futuristic city in the background, it sure seems obvious. Knowing that Secret Wars, the arc adapted for the next Avengersmixing heroes from different universes, we should finally actually visit one of them for more time than in Doctor Strange 2 or via an episode of What if…?
This reboot of Fantastic 4 therefore promises to be more and more intriguing. As a reminder, the main team is made up of Pedro Pascal (Mr. Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby (The Invisible Woman), Jospeh Quinne (La Toche Humaine) and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Thing). Galactus will be played by Ralph Ineson and The Silver Surfer by Julia Garner. The film is scheduled to be released on July 23, 2025..
