I still hold my hypothesis that the shot of Galactus peering into the Baxter building is actually a nightmare either Reed or Sue have in fear of his arrival to take little Franklin.

[@alexp601]

He’s too small in that shot anyway

[@TheCursedCat1927]

​​@@alexp601 Galactus can change his size, so it doesn't really mean that much...

[@thedarkavenger2928]

That might not actually be in the movie since it was only made for comic con and before they actually started filming the movie

[@hamsterrwrld6767]

Doubt it considering Galactus is the main villain here lol.

[@HulkSmashAHoe]

It could just be a giant alien. Doesn’t have to always be a actual character

[@jimmyk4445]

I've thought since the first announcement that the whole title card looks like a baby shower theme. The font and lettering and colors all look like an 60's invite to a baby shower.

[@renolda]

Aww I love that they used Jack King's voice on the rocket launch scene from Appolo 11 launch such a wonderful tribute to the pioneers of space exploration .Thank you for including him. Can't wait to see FF4FS .

[@Oxnypognip]

To a devourer of worlds, someone who can shape and create worlds on a universal scale would be an incredible asset to keep by your side. A herald who is basically an infinite food source seems exactly like something Galactus would want

[@tbirkley101]

That tracks. But Galactus is not as omnipotent as Franklin. Franklin is on another level

[@NicholasPhillips713]

I’m loving these Fantastic Four videos. Fantastic Four, Thunderbolts, and DD Born Again are the only MCU projects I’m truly excited for. Gonna watch everything of course, just more excited for those than anything else.

[@M0RGAT0RY]

Yeah, I'm taking a hard pass on Captain America, too 😂

[@scottbyerly1900]

Glactus wins the fight but before capturing the fantastic four, Franklin as a toddler transports them out of that timeline and into the MCU. It sets up glactus as a major villian, Franklin as a OP hero but too young to help now, and the fantastic four as an established group but never being mentioned before in the Main timeline.

[@SamBradley424]

Your coverage is always so in depth and is strangely comforting in this weird time we are living in right now. Thanks for all of your efforts in putting these together for us, really appreciate it 🙌

[@chrisandalexyt]

First steps definitely baby nod and the logo looks so much like those kids toys with the letters on them

[@Brazdon83]

its a long shot but do you think if franklin and valeria richards are in the movie that maybe the family dynamic and things getting personal could be with uncle victor von doom? galactis seems like the threat for the movie to me, but it could be both? I'm excited to see what they've cooked up

[@marce.t8732]

I was thinking this too. Like Reed and Victor butting heads on the best way to stop Galactus while protecting Valeria and Franklin. Just odd RDJ isn't on the press tour with them.

[@Erichthonius1109]

Yeah. One of the most interesting aspects of Secret Wars were the interactions between Doom and the kids, particularly Valeria. I hope we get a big enough time jump between FF and SW so as to have aged them up enough to have that Uncle Doom aspect play out similarly.

[@whiteoutgotu]

He's obviously what got "personal" about this movie. I don't know why anyone would think it's something else. NR even said in their last video. We've had this synopsis for a minute, but, now it's been updated to include this "personal" angle. Didn't some huge actor just sign on to play Reed's old friend turned foe? Why overthink that?

[@RandyMarsh0301]

Maybe Silver Surfer comes to Earth and takes baby Franklin... Then they go to space and get him.

[@woodrobin]

In the comics, Galactus doesn't figure out that Franklin Richards is his fated companion (the being who will live to see the end of the current universe and merge with Galactus to form the equivalent entity in the next universe, the same way Galan of Taa merged with the Sentience of the Sixth Cosmos to form Galactus) until years after Franklin is born. After all, it honestly could have been any number of beings, and there really wasn't any reason to assume the being would be born for billions of years yet -- Galan of Taa was born very late in the lifespan of the Sixth Cosmos, and Franklin was born many billions of years before the Seventh Cosmos would naturally end. There's a scene after Galactus figures it out where a time-traveling adult Franklin is floating in space talking to Galactus about the billions of years they're fated to travel the universe together. Franklin turns to Galactus at one point and says, "Oh, and Galan?" Galactus replies, "Yes?" (answering to his previous name from billions of years ago). Franklin concludes with "Aren't you glad you never devoured the Earth?" It would be interesting if Galactus in the movie is interested in the Earth because of Franklin, and the fear of him wanting to devour the Earth (justified, given that's almost always why he approaches a planet at all) is a misinterpretation. The FF figuring a way out of a problem as much as (or more than) they fight their way out of it is a core part of their appeal.

[@marcusyates3044]

Reed: "You're putting me on!"

[@captcardwell3398]

You gave your kid a comic book. He's got no reason to walk, the best world lays on the floor awaiting that page flip into each moment of excitement

[@gaigechambers8130]

Wow beautifully put

[@stancinatti8198]

Real

[@athandle_handle]

Are u implying this 1 year old is reading? 💀

[@templetonf]

I think Galactus' size has been explained as relative to the person perceiving him... He is a cosmic constant, after all. His "size" doesn't have to adhere to the rules of physical reality

[@CaydenThomson99]

Just so we're allllll clear, Fantastic FourCast > Fupdate

[@The6ftPeter]

It’ll start with a montage like Late Night with the Devil

[@savedgesurvive]

And i think we could all agree...if you were Married to a super powered Vanessa Kirby variant, we would be trying to start a family immediately if given the okay. Haha

[@Barbarbinks4135]

They said first steps and I Immediately thought of a baby

[@markg.7014]

I am for one looking forward to this movie!! I was a fan of the 2000s version. Not so much with Rise of the Silver Surfer, but still ok to watch. I really wasnt happy that Galactus was nothing but a big dust cloud in space and just barely making out his silhouette in the flames towards the end. But anyhow, with everything i have seen or read online, im getting really hyped. I am excited to see where this version of the FF goes, including them being in the next Avengers movies.

[@dickysams]

That Marvel logo's giving off serious kids fold-out book vibes!

[@Craboilproductions]

Fantastic FOURsight is like, right there!

[@Ajirioghene02]

4:22 i love it😂

[@MJfp6lx]

If MCU manages to make these characters their frontrunners then fox majorly effed up with the fantastic 4😂.

[@QuintonLeo]

Franklin Richards is just as inevitable as Thanos in the MCU. I simply don't see how they can do Secret Wars and beyond without him existing within the cinematic universe. I can't wait to see it.

[@sodangeruss]

The first working title for this film was “dark side of the moon” Why are we assuming that Galactus is on earth when he’s looking through the window? Why is he not looking through the window space station perhaps ?

[@emilyk5168]

Kathryn Hahn should be in this as an alternate Agatha, protecting Franklin. Make it happen, Matt Shakman.

[@Faisal98]

The worst idea ever

only Mr. Fantastic himself could make stretches this big.

Love the F4 updates, plz keep it up!

[@theenglishangle]

I think this is spot on. And I don’t say that very often with speculation but I think yall got this one

[@JBDNFT]

10:17 of course he wouldn't double down on Galactus' being powerful enough to density shift. Like it's not a might

[@REDDEVIL9269]

I'm so excited for this film!

[@dimancor2925]

One of the most anticipated movies from Marvel for me !

[@thewrongagendapodcast9782]

Great info. Did i deep dive into what they can do with galactus on my channel i think alot of things are riding on this movie introducing these characters well.

[@ccole99]

To me, my Galactus!!!

[@xXK4FBEASTXx]

I think them shooting off into space is gonna have a “lightyear effect” causing them to jump in time even tho it’s only been a few minutes for them it’s years on earth At the same time they already have powers and are well established hero’s for saving the universe from galactus but time just takes them for a little stroll

[@preachez]

We love you Josh

[@josecardonavlogs6509]

I hope they do The Thing justice, hes such a cool character in every other media. The damn cartoons do him justice >_

[@JacobDean88]

Family usually doesn't mean just a married couple. Although, of course, their family. When the word is used, for the most part, it also means kids.

[@rosyellis14]

i love 60s futuristic its my favorite thing

[@mattduncil]

Baby Blue! Wait they brought Heisenberg from Breaking Bad into the MCU, it’d explain why super serum is blue. He would make an interesting street level villain.

[@88kage]

Wow ! Love to see more content like this especially fantastic

[@patrickdoyle6201]

Imagine if it does end up just like THE INCREDIBLES and after the majority of the movie Galactus & Doom come to The Baxter Building, Franklin displays his powers , defeating Galactus, Doom bargains with or threatens him with the Ultimate Nullifier in exchange for safe passage with them into the MCU

[@andystephens3663]

I still can’t believe that anyone would think it’d be a good idea to launch a rocket from Manhattan. That’s literally the worst spot you could possibly launch something in case of an accident or malfunction. 😂

[@squanchmaster125]

What if the silver surfer is there to rip out the anchor being so that he can devour the world without the wrath of Alioth!?

[@JPIbanez84]

Silver Surfer doesn't devour worlds. Alioth is not on that world (universe) or any other universe. All nonsense.

[@LocalSleepParalysisDemon]

What if ‘first steps’ also means Franklin and Valeria’s first steps?? Like their first steps as children learning to walk? That’s a very literal way to keep part of the story grounded + “it gets very personal”

[@LocalSleepParalysisDemon]

NEVERMIND THEY LITERALLY SAID THIS IN THE VIDEO OMG

[@johnnyfrias8617]

You always have good theories and sometimes you're right😮

[@Hav3nM]

This is actually a really well thought out theory

[@Solar_Eclipse53]

You know, I really wish you all would talk more about the DCU. I hear it's been really great.

[@joeking1956]

I fully support your decision to stick with Fupdape.

[@ryanmallettofficial]

This sounds like it’s going to lean on the Hickman run in the comics. Let’s hope the writing is good bc the intro of silver surfer - but his variant - has a lot of people “concerned” about that. The actors are great all around but if the writing is terrible then this won’t be good. Let’s hope they don’t release too many trailers/ promos.

[@Hdub8526]

God Vanesa is scorching hot. Feel like Pedro and Kirby gonna announce they’re together after the movies released

[@rwelmer]

Just for fun speculation. Maybe it isn't personal with Galactus at all. Instead Namor factors in here and it's his relationship with Sue that causes issues. Maybe even a question of the true paternity of Franklin in Reed's mind.

[@ShaneLeon]

They visit the BLUE area of the Moon, this could be the first live action appearance of The Watcher, or they discover the history of the Watchers, how it ties to Galactus and the creation of the multiverse

[@Mithrandir39]

I remember watching the Apollo 11 launch on TV

[@Tom-_-Hanks]

Thanks, thumbs up, have a great day.

[@albobvgames]

YESS

[@J.O.R.D]

I want galactus to be the original incursion point from the beginning of time as he did come from another universe

[@bobbymcneil2296]

Given recent history of the MCU this movie goin be a strong 6 maybe a 7/7.5

[@jasongallagher5464]

I love Pedro pascal but I was really hoping for Krasinski and Blunt again. One of the only times I’ve ever grabbed my arm rest was that one moment in doctor strange and then they just took it away from me. The only other time was when daredevil showed up in No Way Home 😁

[@robertbrown3830]

Hypnotized by Vanessa Kirby each time

[@neonmonkeyproductions]

I really don't want them to have kids yet, the MCU is so stuffed with characters as is, they should just focus on the main 4 for now but maybe it will be worth it, still super excited for this though!

[@theautisticphotographer]

I agree hope just the main 4

[@tbirkley101]

You can't do Secret Wars without Franklin Richards.

[@burneyboys02]

I very certain that this could be the case for the film. Galactus targeting Franklin sounds very personal for the Fantastic Four to take action.

[@erikjohnson3255]

Who's lineage was Kang, Franklin or Valeria? That is significant for Galactis' motivation, I think.

[@johntybagend]

I’m so glad you changed fantastic fupdate… oh wait…

[@erikfinkel2717]

By the way, this whole speculation of Galactus targeting Franklin Richards and time dilation, I wonder if they're gonna follow similar narrative beats as the 3rd season of Angel when his son gets kidnapped during the season finale climax and returns older as an pubescent adolescent just months later in season 4's premiere.

[@francisdunne9867]

Jonathan Major’s charges were dropped. Wonder if they can bring him back as Kang. Cover that if you can!

[@dycebayliss731]

I LOVE THE TITLE "Fantastic FUPDATE"!!!😂😂😂

[@MJfp6lx]

I think it's too soon to go into reed and sue as a couple into immediate Franklin Richards. Too soon

[@liamfrr]

Fantastic Fupdate is perfect

[@emiliohernandez7214]

I’m a little concerned that marvel is trying to blow through some of the Fantastic Fours’ best stories… Still stupidly excited for this movie though! I see the words Marvel’s Fantastic Four and I click lol

[@leonbooks9709]

Maybe the council of Reeds is already a thing. They know about Incursions and the Multiverse but can't travel it, till they are forced to but end up in the void.

[@NocoPicofromTicoLico]

Omg a giant leap for giant guesses.

[@troybannish2656]

Maybe this is simply the "First Steps" of Making the MCU whole. The 1st Family if the MCU. ✔️

[@gregmurrell9013]

You're suppositions hurt my brain but I like it😊

[@TipeneThorner]

Galactus: _there's someone more powerful than me?!?! Ight I'm going to om nom nom their planet!"

[@tonycumberbatch7651]

Perhaps Galactus is trying to save Franklin Richards, as Franklin mutant ability is "The Power Cosmic." Franklin's abilities are so vast, he's basically a "God" Telekinesis.. Telepathy.. Teleportation.. Precognition.. Astral Projection.. Reality Wrapping.. Gryokinesis/Matter and Energy Manipulation.. Chronkensis/Time and Space Manipulation.. Pocket Universe Creation.. He can Fly and, He is Immortal. The MCU always likes to spin and twist the narrative. Theory: This Galactus isn't who you think he is, Marvel Comic readers will understand.

[@Saiyankev01]

First Steps could also be their first steps into the MCU both movie wise and potentially through a portal to enter the main universe while galatictus eats theirs

[@hunt0583]

I hope that they play “The Impossible Dream” in the movie

[@labreuilleloick]

Something... In comics, they go to the moon "first steps" where they find the house of... the watcher.

[@darwinoro6337]

It always looks weird to me why the Marvel brand was in this Fantastic 4 movie maybe hinting at something. This style of lettering can also be found in children's books. Maybe its just me..😅

[@michaelgiles4309]

Has anyone thought maybe they gonna be the parents of Dr. Doom? The Fantastic 4 Movie - will be his first steps. Shake the story up.

[@danishraza8843]

We are so not interested in this movie. This will be a movie miracle to be a hit.

[@Rkatondonegal]

Galactus coming for Franklin Richard’s reminds me of the Ghostbusters 2 film when Vego was coming for that baby 😂

[@MachampionEX]

I think this movie is also the "first steps" of wrapping up this saga as everything comes together in the final Avengers movies.

[@choppadfrenchie4516]

John Krasinski's version of Reed Richards also admitted to Wanda that he has kids.

[@DavidW.WardJR]

The Fantastic Four as astronauts look like 2001 A space odyssey

[@bamboleo901]

wtf? There is a teaser already, what do they mean by starting filming?

[@Aliziun]

I seriously hope they keep Franklin a reality warper. Don’t do any of the stupid stuff like in the comics where they constantly strip him of his power!!

[@NerdcoreOnline]

Franklin and Valeria showing up isn't so much an Easter egg but more implied for the MCUs "first" family appearance.
