Kevin Feige has given an update on the production of the Matt Shakman-directedFantastic Four: The First Steps, and has also re-confirmed that Marvel’s First Family will be in the “next Avengers movies.”
“Finally, [we’re] bringing Marvel’s First Family into the MCU,” Feige said at theDisneyAPAC Content Showcase (viaDeadline). “They wrap next week, the movie comes out next summer, and then all those characters go right into the next Avengers movies, so I’m very excited for the future of the Fantastic Four.”
“Why would we come back if we didn’t feel like we had a story that had that possibility of being on an equal footing with Infinity War and Endgame unless there’s a kernel there for an idea that’s really explosive?” Joe Russo said.
