There are many reasons why fans are excited about the upcoming Fantastic Four reboot. While others are already hoping that their favorite actors will play the superheroes, some are also looking forward to the villains in the Marvel Cinematic Universe flick. Not surprisingly, Tim Story is hyped up about Galactus' arrival in the MCU.
Story, who directed the first two Fantastic Four movies starring Jessica Alba, recently spoke to DesdeHollywood while promoting his new film Tom and Jerry. Interestingly, Story pointed out that some people were afraid of what Galactus would look like in his true form in his films. However, that's something to look forward to in the MCU.
"What I am so looking forward to is when they [Marvel Studios] get their hands on Galactus and show Galactus, I can't wait. I can't wait," Story said. He added that a certain scene from Avengers: Endgame convinced him that Marvel will do things right.
"When I saw Ant-Man big on-screen, when I saw that, I went, 'Oh my God, wait until they get to Galactus.'" Story said.
We understand why Story is so excited about Galactus joining the MCU. In Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, the villain only appeared as a cloud-like entity and we never really get to see him in his true form. However, there's a good chance that Marvel Studios will feature the supervillain in the upcoming reboot.
The Fantastic Four reboot will be directed by Spider-Man 3 director Jon Watts. For now, the new cast has not yet been announced but fans believe that Reed Richards could eventually show up in WandaVision. However, this has not yet been confirmed by Marvel so it's best to take it with a grain of salt.
Watts' Fantastic Four reboot has not yet been given an official release date. However, this could be updated in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
