After raking in over $500 million at the box office, the thrilling comic book spectacle will be available for even more fans to enjoy when it lands on Disney+ on Wednesday, November 5th.

This means there's just a little over a week left for fans to either revisit the cosmic comic book epic or plunge into the action for the first time, reports the Mirror.


Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach star as Marvel's renowned family, Reed Richards, Sue and Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm, who use their extraordinary powers to safeguard New York.

When their world is endangered by the most formidable threat it has ever faced, the planet-devouring entity known as Galactus (portrayed by Ralph Ineson), the Fantastic Four must journey beyond their solar system in search of answers from his mysterious herald, the Silver Surfer (Julia Garner).

The movie has already garnered glowing praise from viewers, with one Letterboxd reviewer gushing: "Truly just Fantastic in about every way you would want! A story that develops the family to incredible heights giving each member a moment to shine, incredible score that highlights each moment, and another building block for the future of the MCU.


"Everyone was casted perfectly and the chemistry between the family was everything I wanted.

"Galactus was jaw dropping, Silver Surfer was bada**, I just loved my time so much with this family! This is the future of the MCU."


Another fan raved about the stellar ensemble that "couldn't be better" and continued: "Everything else is outstanding as well.

"The movie looks wonderful with its beautiful visuals, especially when we reach outer space, features an impressive and menacing - as well as comic-accurate - Galactus, many thrilling action scenes, a great film score by Michael Giacchino, superb art direction and special effects.

"Fantastic Four: First Steps is easily one of the best instalments in the MCU, a fresh, funny, exciting and beautifully retro-futuristic movie with brains, a heart and a soul, as well as a fantastic quartet of lead actors - the first Fantastic Four movie which truly does Marvel's First Family justice."


Meanwhile, a final five-star review enthused: "This movie is so awesome. It's cosy, it's entertaining, and overall it's a breath of fresh air.

"I was so unsure about the casting, and I couldn't have been more wrong for doubting whether the actors were the right choices or not. Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach were the PERFECT casting for the Fantastic Four family.

"They made Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben feel like a family more than the 2005 version did. This movie is perfection."
