This week, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/movies\/articles\/supermans-hbo-max-release-date-194159883.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:James Gunn\u2019s Superman hits HBO Max;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">James Gunn\u2019s <em>Superman<\/em> hits HBO Max<\/a>, reuniting me with one half of that equation. But as you can tell by the headline, Marvel\u2019s <em>The Fantastic Four: First Steps<\/em> is also a picture I dig quite well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Just as my hype surrounding that movie had died down, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.marvel.com\/articles\/movies\/fantastic-four-first-steps-digital-blu-ray-release\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Marvel;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Marvel<\/a> found a way to stoke it back to the levels I was at after seeing director Matt Shakman\u2019s movie for the first time. Per today\u2019s big announcement, you too can revisit (or introduce yourself to) <em>First Steps<\/em> through digital rental or purchase, starting September 23rd.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As for us physical media devotees, we\u2019ll have to wait until October 14th for 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD copies to hit shelves. If you ask me, that&#8217;s where the <em>real<\/em> action is, as only certain versions of <em>The Fantastic Four\u2019s<\/em> Marvel Cinematic Universe origin story will include this compliment of bonus features on deck:<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>The 4K UHD digital and Blu-ray releases feature hours of exclusive bonus content, including deleted scenes, a gag reel, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and filmmaker commentary by director Matt Shakman and production designer Kasra Farahani.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Fellow children of Tomorrowland will be pleased to know that one of the featurettes happens to be titled, \u201cFantastic Futurism,\u201d which delves into the rich visual world built into this Phase 6 kickoff film. And if you look at the cover art for all of the formats on display, that love is still present through each variant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">However, there\u2019s one edition I\u2019m eager to get my hands on, and it\u2019s an Amazon Exclusive. Not only does that version of <em>The Fantastic Four: First Steps<\/em> have a gorgeous Steelbook for its 4K UHD\/Blu-ray combo pack, it also has a fridge magnet and some other goodies in store. You can see the total package for yourself, courtesy of the official image below:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The icing on this super heroic cake, for me at least, has to be how a copy of <em>The Fantastic Four: First Steps\u2019 <\/em>prequel comic is part of this fully loaded offer. I\u2019ve been trying to get my hands on that book for <em>months<\/em>, and now my local comic shops won\u2019t have to endure my constant calls.\u00a0Also, my boy H.E.R.B.I.E. is on the disc art! That&#8217;s when you know you&#8217;ve made it as an adorable side character who can steal a heart <em>and<\/em> cook Sunday Dinner.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">All kidding aside, it\u2019s beautiful to see one of the most entertaining movies of 2025 get the royal treatment for home entertainment. So if you\u2019re looking forward to fighting crime with the First Family of Superheroes, then keep your eyes open for when <em>The Fantastic Four: First Steps <\/em>pre-orders open up!\u00a0There&#8217;s still no <em>official<\/em> word on when to expect the film on Disney+, so you streamers out there will have to sit tight for now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/tvsquad.com\/movies\/why-was-harry-potter-director-chris-columbus-fired-from-the-fantastic-four-movie\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Related: Why Was Harry Potter Director Chris Columbus Fired from the Fantastic Four Movie?;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Related: Why Was Harry Potter Director Chris Columbus Fired from the Fantastic Four Movie?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As someone who\u2019s been jaded by superhero fatigue in recent years, the summer of 2025 offered two antidotes I\u2019m looking forward to bringing home.
