Fantastic Four director Matt Shakman has revealed that First Steps originally had a space-set opening, which involved Sue Storm giving birth much earlier in the Marvel movie.
"For a long time we had [Franklin] born at the beginning of the movie," Shakman revealed to Phase Hero. "Also in zero-G, also in a space station rescue, kind of a big James Bond '60s opening. But then I had this idea to put it in the middle of the movie, combine it with the Silver Surfer escape around the neutron star. It was taking two ideas that I really liked and putting them together – all of a sudden they felt like magic."
