Reed Richards' stretching in The Fantastic Four: First Steps was largely inspired by Marvel and DC artist Alex Ross and Spider-Man, says director Matt Shakman.
"Stretching is challenging. People understand invisibility, they can understand being on fire. You can even understand a big rock guy, but stretching is tough because there's nothing in our world that does that," the filmmaker, whose previous credits include Game of Thrones, The Boys, and WandaVision, tells GamesRadar+.
