That Film Stew Podcast

Directed by Matt Shakman, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is the superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team the Fantastic Four. Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world (Earth-828), Marvel’s First Family – Reed Richards / Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm / Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm / Human Torch (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm / The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), face their most daunting challenge yet. Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). We break down all things from rebooting the Fantastic Four a third time, the dynamics of the cast, and all the superhero visuals and actions.
