Today, on The Goggler Podcast, Bahir and Uma watch and review the long awaited return of Marvel’s first family in The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
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, Ben Grimm/The Thing, and Johnny Storm/Human Torch as they face their most daunting challenge yet. 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 action-adventure was directed by Matt Shakman and stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon Moss Bacharach, Natasha Lyonne, Paul Walter Hauser, Sarah Niles, and Mark Gatiss.
