Marvel’s “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” Out Now On Digital Platforms

Today sees the release of the latest Marvel Studios movie, “The Fantastic Four”, on digital platforms, including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home, to purchase or rent.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios’ “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” introduces Marvel’s First Family — Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm/Human Torch and Ben Grimm/The Thing — as they face a daunting challenge. 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 and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer. And if Galactus’ plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren’t bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal.

The film stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Joseph Quinn, Julia Garner, Sarah Niles, Mark Gatiss, Natasha Lyonne, Paul Walter Hauser, Ralph Ineson, Ada Scott, Matthew Wood, Angela Jones, Maisie Shakman, Jay Underwood, Michael Bailey-Smith, Alex Hyde-White, Rebecca Staab, Patrick Miller, and Mather Zickel.

No Disney+ release date has been announced yet, though we should expect to see it arrive on the streaming service within the next month or two, as Disney tries to maximise its income from digital and physical media releases before hitting Disney+.
