Back in 2022, Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige vowed that the new Fantastic Four MCU reboot would not be an origin story per se, but instead present something different, while also reintroducing these heroes into the larger continuity. "A lot of people know this origin,” Feige said three years ago. “A lot of people know the basics. How do we take that and bring something that they've never seen before? We've set a very high bar for ourselves with bringing that to the screen.”
Now, with the launch of the first full trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, it appears that Marvel is sticking to that promise and, possibly, sustaining a new trend in superhero movies that crosses over to other Marvel movies and the DC universe, too.
