“The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” the newest installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is shaping up to be one of Marvel’s best-reviewed and biggest hits in recent years after making $23 million in Thursday previews, a strong showing after the last “Fantastic Four” movie flopped.

One of the biggest movies to kick off Marvel’s Phase Six is the MCU’s newest movie, Fantastic Four: First Steps. Based on the FF trailer, the 2025 movie release not only stands apart due to its stellar casting,

First Steps does an admirable job of introducing Marvel's first superhero team into the MCU along with two of its best villains.

FANTASTIC FOUR: THE FIRST STEPS brings the team to us in a new and refreshing way. Matt Shakman's vision of their NYC is gorgeous and intoxicating and Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach are perfect. It's about family!!!! 💙 pic.twitter.com/ISdfduL6Su

It’s box office clobberin’ time — or so Marvel hopes.

With Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben once again clobberin' their way into our hearts, we've decided to rank the four (yes, four) Fantastic Four movies that came before this. Where will The Fantastic Four: First Steps ultimately rank on this list?

The superhero movie world just got a big reminder: it’s far from dead. Marvel Studios and Disney’s latest film, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, is making serious waves, pulling in about $23 million in Thursday previews that kicked off as early as 2PM.
