Marvel’s Fantastic Four Movie Will Embrace the Comics Not the Past Movies

Marvel Studios producer Stephen Broussard has stated that the upcoming Fantastic Four film and their depiction in the MCU will set the team apart from what we saw in previous films, specifically Fox’s 2005 ‘Fantastic Four’ and subsequent sequel in 2007.

Broussard sat down with ScreenRant to discuss the upcoming ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ but also discussed the plans for what could become the MCU’s signature team in future Phases. Broussard described how the comic book movie landscape has changed dramatically since 2005, and they’ve learned many valuable insights that can be applied to the Fantastic Four.

Broussard asserted that while “I wouldn’t presume to know everything about that film; I’m not necessarily working on it. But one of the founding principles of Marvel, going back to Iron Man and the casting of Tony that I think has resonated through today, is to embrace the source material and these comics that have been around forever. They’re older than me, and I’m guessing they’re older than you too. They’ve been around for a while for a reason, [so we] lean into that.”

“I think the world has changed a little bit, people understand that now. But in 2005, maybe there was a reticence to fully embrace what it was. In everything; in the embodiment of Galactus and things like that. Whatever form the story takes, whatever characters do or do not appear, that founding principle will be embraced and will welcome them into the MCU.”

Feige and the creative team will lean heavily toward comic books for inspiration. Marvel CEO Kevin Feige has already stated that the upcoming Fantastic Four film will be an origin story, setting it apart from the other adaptations. We will have to wait and see if Feige has, in fact learned from the mistakes of the past films when creating these characters for the MCU.
