The upcoming film 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' will introduce a retro-futuristic take on Marvel's iconic superhero family. Slated for release in July, it is rumored to include a plot where Sue Storm is pregnant while in space, potentially leading to the introduction of their son, Franklin Richards. This narrative twist could not only reshape audience perceptions of the Fantastic Four's role within the Marvel Cinematic Universe but also hint at future ties to the X-Men franchise, igniting fan speculation about the interconnectedness of Marvel's superhero narratives.
This version of Marvel's First Family inhabits a retro-futuristic Space Age world, not the glitzy near-future of the main MCU timeline.
If true, it not only changes what we know about the movie, but everything we know about the MCU's future... and its plans to introduce the X-Men.
Fans assumed 'First Steps' referenced space travel, but it could also allude to the first steps of a young Franklin, whose involvement promises big things.
Marvel fans immediately began picking it apart frame by frame, and noticed a scene of what looks like Sue in labor in space.
