Fantastic Four Sets Disney+ Streaming Release Date: How to Watch Online

“The Fantastic Four: First Steps” will become available to stream at home on Disney+ starting Nov. 5 after grossing $521 million at the worldwide box office over the summer.

The 37th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, “First Steps” hit theaters on July 25, opening to $117 million at the domestic box office and $218 million worldwide— Marvel’s strongest opening weekend of the year and the second strongest superhero opening of the summer after DC Studios’ “Superman.”

Directed by Matt Shakman, “First Steps” is Hollywood’s second attempt to reboot the eponymous superhero quartet this century. Tim Story’s “Fantastic Four” and its sequel, “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer,” were distributed by 20th Century Fox in 2005 and 2007, respectively. Fox then rebooted the series in 2015 with Josh Trank’s “Fantastic Four” before Disney bought the studio and acquired the property in 2019.

“First Steps” differs from its predecessors by taking place in a retro-futuristic world that doesn’t shy away from the source material’s 1960s campiness. A bright and optimistic superhero story, it focuses on the Fantastic Four as a family, introducing the characters at the height of their heroic notoriety rather than centering the movie around how they got their powers.

Depicting the titular superhero family are Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm/The Thing. Julia Garner also stars as The Silver Surfer alongside Ralph Ineson as Galactus and Paul Walter Hauser as Harvey Elder/Mole Man.

The film will join other Marvel movies on Disney+ and the Fantastic Four will return to the big screen on Dec. 18, 2026 in “Avengers: Doomsday.”
