Related Everything We Know About Marvel's Fantastic Four Reboot The MCU is bringing a new version of the Fantastic Four as part of its Multiverse Saga, and here"s what you need to know about this reboot.
Could Future Fantastic Four Sequels Explore Alternative Versions Of The Team? Close The MCU's The Fantastic Four movie will mark the end of a long wait for the audience as Marvel's First Family finally gets to have their time to shine in the franchise. Given the focus on the iconic team will take place in not just a different time period but an alternative universe, the MCU will likely spend at least a few projects only highlighting this new iteration of the Fantastic Four. However, that doesn't mean potential The Fantastic Four sequels couldn't explore variant versions of the team.
If The Fantastic Four 2 were to happen, it likely wouldn't be until after the conclusion of The Multiverse Saga. Even if it weren't part of The Multiverse Saga, it would be intriguing to see how Marvel Studios tackle alternative interpretations of those characters, given the rich history of the Fantastic Four in the comics. It would also be fun to see the new actors getting to interact with multiverse versions of the Fantastic Four, even in worlds where the line-up is vastly different from the classic formation.
Even the concept of The New Fantastic Four version of the team with Wolverine, Ghost Rider, Spider-Man, and Hulk would be a major treat to see in live-action. Another approach for them would be to feature The New Fantastic Four in the upcoming season of What If…?, as it would likely be easier to handle this concept in animation. But for now, the world can look forward to finally meeting The Fantastic Four in the MCU in 2025 as the reboot gets closer to its release date.
