In that series she was portrayed to be late 30s or 40. This was the first movie in which the characters felt to be the correct age, making Vanessa Kirby to be a great match from what I would expect to see.

If a film looks interesting then I'll probably go and see it. The problem is for all everyone talks about the Fantastic 4 as some headline group for Marvel they're not superheroes a lot of non-comic book readers like myself know much about and frankly their powers aren't very interesting either. They're very random. Also I think a lot of people are just fed up with the ever-increasing number of MCU characters and adding another 4 just makes matters worse. There's simply too many to get invested in and care about. The early MCU was so much more entertaining. The first Avengers movies had just 6 heroes, 2 of whom had been introduced through the others' movies. Each was distinct both in character and abilities. By the time End Game came around there were dozens of characters and many had similar powers. Sometimes less is more and that's definitely the case with the MCU.

[@makatron]

The two main characters are played by actors a decade older than they should be, imagine if RDJ was 49 in the first Iron Man, no way he made it to End Game in shape. But I guess this will be a throwaway film.

The thing that sucks the most is that Marvel Studios could have had the Fantastic Four be the driving force behind Phases 4, 5, and 6 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The model for a Fantastic Four movie should be the first Superman movie. Big, bright, colorful and clean. No grim, dark, gritty stuff. The fact that it takes place in a retro 60's (like The Incredibles almost does) is a positive sign. So is the fact that they said "You know what, Galactus is not a cloud but a big guy with wings on his helmet." I kind of wish they would use this movie just to introduce the team, and leave Doom, Galactus, the Skrulls and what-not to the sequels (if any). But I don't know if Hollywood has that kind of restraint any more.

My favorite and first depiction of the Fantastic Four I ever saw was the animated series Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes by the studio MoonScoop.

I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it. It's just a single season of around... 25 episodes, I think it was. I do have a soft spot for the Fantastic Four.

It will take getting the IP into the hands of a different studio since the chances of a top down change at Disney is virtually impossible.

The reason the Reed and Sue are older is because they're parents, this isn't an origin story and supposedly their son Franklin Richards is highly speculated to be in the movie. It's the reason Galactus is coming to that earth in the first place, because he's sensing their son's latent power. Galactus becomes Franklin's Herald at a point that's how broken their son is power scale wise. Franklin is the key to solving the MCU multiverse mess.

[@PeglegSailor]

I had a completely different idea that could’ve brought them into the established MCU. The first FF4 movie would take place over the course of several years, starting somewhere around Iron Man 3 in terms of chronological order. Reed Richards would be awarded a research grant from Tony Stark, a way to bring RDJ back to the MCU without making him Doom (which is fucking stupid), but a co-recipient of the grant would be Victor Von Doom (and he would even pronounce it as Dome). They would be working on technology to make instant teleportation a possibility. They would have their first successful test on the day Thanos snaps the blip, and would happen right as Victor and Reed attempt another test that results in an explosion that injures Doom. As Reed helps Victor to his feet and they make their way out of the research facility, Victor turns to dust. Then the movie would primarily focus on the chaos in the world that immediately follows the snap. Five years of HELL where humanity has eventually learned how to cope with what has happened, but the majority of the movie would be how Reed and his team (Sue, Johnny, and Ben) are using the technology he and Victor have created to assist the world in rebuilding after the snap. Thus, they are know as the Fantastic Four. They would gain their powers by trying to reestablish an international space station, where the FF4 are installing a permanent teleportation access point on the space station so humanity doesn’t have to launch rockets or crafts to put people into space. While out there, Hulk snaps his fingers to bring everyone back. The massive amount of cosmic energy blasts the FF4 who are not protected by the shell of the Earth’s magnetic field, and causes chaos on the space station. They get hit AGAIN as Tony snaps his fingers, leaving them unconscious. The climax of the film would essentially be a space disaster movie, with the space station plummeting back through the atmosphere and the team working together to survive, and due to the stress starting to show signs of their powers in the process. The movie would end with a mid credits scene showing Victor returning from the blip still inside the research facility which is now well-established and decorated with accolades for the FF4. Doom discovers Reed’s massive success and popularity and that Victor was given no credit for the development of the technology that put Reed and the FF4 on the map. The scene would culminate with him being completely enraged and muttering a bit of a spell to himself, showing his origins actually take on his comic origins. The end credits scene would show the planet where Thanos was killed the first time by Thor, the “Garden”. A streak of silver would be seen darting across the sky, then the shot would change to the dilapidated interior of Thanos’ hut, where we see his skeletal remains. A pair of silver arms reach down and pick up a mangled remnant of the infinity gauntlet as a massive object blocks out the sunlight. Cut to interior of a massive starship, with a large, metallic hand making adjustments to different instrument panels. The silver surfer appears, kneels, and offers up the gauntlet. “Master, there is no signs of life on the planet capable of wielding such power.” The massive hand lifts the gauntlet from the surfer’s hands, as alarms go off in the ship. A screen displays Earth, showing a mssive blast of cosmic energy radiating from the planet. “There… we will travel there my herald. This power will be mine,” Galactus states.
