Fantastic Four: Pedro Pascal Revives Marvel's Underappreciated Superheroes

Fantastic Four: First Steps made an impressive debut in theaters, achieving the 2nd best box office performance for 2025.

It was in 1961 that the Fantastic Four, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, made their first appearance. Despite previous unsuccessful attempts to bring them to the big screen, the new film seems to be changing things.

Fantastic Four: First Steps, starring Pedro Pascal, reached $57 million at the box office on its first day, even surpassing DC's Superman. This success gives Marvel a breath of fresh air after mediocre reviews for other recent productions.
