In 1978, the animation company DePatie–Freleng (best known for The Pink Panther) teamed with Marvel to make The New Fantastic Four. The stories leaned a little more into sci-fi and tech, especially with the inclusion of H.E.R.B.I.E., the group's little robotic friend not too dissimilar from Star Wars' R2-D2.

As the filmmaker’s three-year journey wound down on the project, he realized a key moment was missing, and managed to shoot it within a few months of the film's opening.

First Steps now playing in theaters, the Marvel Studios reboot's CinemaScore has been revealed, but how does it compare to previous movies featuring the team...and Superman?

First Steps" has a thrilling ending that teases Dr. Doom and where the MCU goes from here in "Avengers: Doomsday."

First Steps gives a spectacular new story about Marvel's First Family with a bold, breathtaking superhero blockbuster.

As is usually the case with MCU movies these days, The Fantastic Four: First Steps includes both a mid-credits and a post-credits scene. And also sticking to the traditional formula, one is a goofy little stinger, while another has serious ramifications for the MCU.

This iteration of the Fantastic Four has a standalone adventure without all the burden of the MCU's history and cast of characters.

Is the new “Fantastic Four” movie fantastic? No, and not everyone will love the amount of downtime in this one. But good is good enough for a Marvel superhero movie these days.
