SecondFantastic Four: first steps director Matt ShakmanThe film Marvel draws directly from one of the most loved comics in the history of the team … Jonathan Hickman’s.
In a preface written for Fantastic Four: Solve everythingShakman revealed that he dived deep into the origin material to prepare for the film, saying:
“In preparation for Marvel Studios’ fantastic Four: First Steps, I deepened over 60 years in the history of comics. The first Marvel family was continually curated by the best and brightest that the company had to offer. Nobody shone as bright as Jonathan Hickman.”
Hickman is running Fantastic Four It began in 2009 and contributed to redefining the team’s tone and scope. His stories embraced science, wonder, family dysfunction and enormous cosmic ideas. It’s all that does the Fantastic Four Fantastic and clearly, that tone blocked with Shakman.
“The humor and the heart I loved as a child? Is it there and better than ever. The disordered family dynamics? It makes even more interesting as Valley and Franklin are at the center of the scene.
“And that sense of optimism and wonder? I don’t think the fantastic four were as fantastic as the pages of this book.”
Among the many concepts that Hickman introduced during his race were the Council of Reeds (a multivaleal Think Tank of Reed Richards variants), the Future Foundation (a team of brilliant young minds started by Reed) and the bridge (a machine that allows you to glimpse alternative reality).
These can or cannot present themselves First stepsBut Shakman certainly seems to plant seeds.
“Having absorbed six decades of publication of F4, many of the magical moments of Hickman and the dynamics of unique characters remain with me. And they arrived in our film in small and large ways.
“From Sue as a diplomat to Reed trying to solve everything even at risk of endangering his family. Johnny’s need must be taken seriously.
“The delicate nature of Ben, forever in contrast with his appearance. The future Foundation. The bridge. The mystery of children and the anxiety we have as parents on their future.”
It’s nice to see a director have respect for comics enough to immerse themselves in their emotional and philosophical nucleus. Hickman’s race did not only concern great ideas, it was a family and it seems First steps He is embracing him. It is exciting to know that the DNA of this film is deeply connected to the comics.
“According to the vibrant background of a retro world inspired by the 1960s, Marvel Studios” The Fantastic Four: First Steps It presents the first Marvel family – Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, his Storm/Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm/Human Torch and Ben Grimm/The Thing – as they deal with their most discouraging challenge ever. “
The film is the protagonist Pedro Pascal As Mister Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as an invisible woman, Joseph Quinn as a human torch, e Ebon Moss-Bachrach like the thing.
Paul Walter Hauser, John MalkovichAND Natasha Lyonne They also appear in the film in not disclosed roles. Then there is Julia Garner like Silver Surfer, e Michael Giacchino He is marking the film, so wait for the soundtrack corresponds to the retro-future atmosphere.
