All 'Fantastic Four' movies are now on Disney+ Canada

20th Century Fox

Comic book films are big spectacles now, but they aren't always that great. And now, you can relive some of the more questionable ones. And by questionable ones, we mean the Fantastic Four films. All three movies are now available on Disney+. These include Fantastic Four (2005) and its sequel Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007) as well as the 2015 reboot Fantastic Four (which is stylized as Fant4stic). All the movies were produced by 20th Century Fox, which was acquired by Disney and thus having been made available on the company's streaming service. 

If you want to see Chris Evans and Michael B. Jordan both play The Human Torch before getting their more famous roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Captain America and Black Panther's Killmonger, you know where to find the movies.

It seems like a dig at 20th Century Fox for not being able to successfully bring the Fantastic Four to the big screen. But Marvel Studios' head Kevin Feige also seems like he's making a promise to fans who have been clamoring for the longest time to see these heroes get an MCU treatment. While speaking to Variety at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, Feige answered when asked about their plans for the characters, "All of that is spoilers, but I'm extremely excited about those characters, and about bringing Marvel's first family up to the sort of platform and level they deserve." Feige didn't specifically say when we can expect a Fantastic Four film (or maybe even series), but just acknowledging it now makes us excited.

Original Mr. Fantastic in ‘Fantastic Four’ films wants a piece of the MCU action

20th Century Fox

If the Disney and 20th Century Fox deal pushes through, this could mean Fantastic Four can join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And one of its original actors wants to make the leap. Ioan Gruffudd, who played Mr. Fantastic or Reed Richards in the first two Fantastic Four films, wants to be part of the MCU. "I would love that," Gruffudd told Digital Spy. "I just don't know, in that universe, the Marvel world, would they let me play something else? I'm so renowned for Fantastic Four. But a couple of actors have [made the leap]." He’s referring to both Chris Evans and Michael B Jordan, who both played Human Torch or Johnny Storm, and are now known as Captain America and Killmonger, respectively.

"I'm sure for Marvel it was a tough decision to pick Chris to play that part [Captain America] because he'd already played one superhero, but what a brilliant decision it was, because he's wonderful," Gruffudd said. "And Michael B Jordan has played Johnny Storm and he's amazing in Black Panther as well, so there are precedents set. So, we'll see." If he could play someone else, Gruffudd said he’d want to be a villain. "Maybe [I could play] a baddie, this time? Now that I've established myself as somebody who can do that, that would be great," he said.

Kevin Feige talks about future of X-Men and Fantastic Four in the MCU

 

Ever since the news broke that Disney is set to buy most of 20th Century Fox, people have been excitedly talking about the possibilities of the X-Men and Fantastic Four being part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel’s boss and producer Kevin Feige shares his thoughts on the matter. He shuts down rumours saying these Marvel superheroes won’t be making a cameo in Avengers 4 set to come out in 2019. The earliest he says they can come in would be the year 2020.

Talking to Vulture, Feige says, “The truth of the matter as I understand it is the deal has to be figured out. There’s been no communication. We’re not thinking about it. We’re focusing on everything we’ve already announced. If and when the deal actually happens, we’ll start to think more about it.” He adds, “We’ve announced everything through 2019, so none of those would be adjusted.” So far, after Avengers 4, we know that Phase 4 of the MCU will be kicked off with the Spider-Man: Homecoming sequel as well as Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
