The Fantastic Four: First Steps is not streaming on Netflix, and most likely will never be streaming on Netflix. This is due to the fact that The Fantastic Four: First Steps is a Marvel movie. Marvel is owned by Disney, and Disney movies have a streaming home on the Disney-owned streamer, Disney+.

Entropy is the one universal constant, and everything changes eventually. This is true even in the world of fiction, where the fine details change as a story is told and retold. Given that, it is not surprising that The Fantastic Four: First Steps made some changes from the comics that inspired it.

That might sound like no big deal, but after 2023’s “The Marvels,” this spring’s fourth “Captain America” movie and “Thunderbolts*” all underperformed by Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) standards, the new “Fantastic Four” may offer broader audience appeal by not pulling from other franchises.
