			== Plot ==
			In 2014, childhood friends [[Reed Richards]] and [[Ben Grimm]] construct a prototype teleportation device using equipment salvaged from Ben's family scrapyard. Their experiment attracts the attention of Professor [[Franklin Storm]], director of the government-funded [[Baxter Foundation]], which recruits young scientists to research interdimensional travel. Impressed by Reed's work, Franklin invites him to join a project led by his former protégé, [[Victor von Doom]], alongside Franklin's children, scientist [[Susan Storm\|Sue Storm]] and engineer [[Johnny Storm]].

			The team completes the Quantum Gate, a machine capable of transporting matter to a previously unknown parallel dimension that they name Planet Zero. After a successful unmanned test, Baxter Foundation supervisor Dr. Allen announces that government-selected astronauts will conduct the first human expedition, excluding the scientists who created the device. Believing they deserve to see their discovery for themselves, Reed, Johnny, and Victor secretly activate the Quantum Gate. Reed convinces Ben to accompany them, while Sue remains behind to monitor the system. The four arrive on Planet Zero and discover a seemingly lifeless landscape filled with unstable energy and green, lava-like material. Victor approaches the substance, causing the ground to rupture beneath them. Reed, Johnny, and Ben reach the transport platform, but Victor falls into the collapsing terrain before Sue can return the others to Earth.

			The Quantum Gate explodes during their return, exposing Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben to energy from Planet Zero. Reed develops the ability to stretch and reshape his body, Sue can become invisible and create force fields, Johnny can generate fire and fly, and Ben is transformed into a powerful being covered in rock-like skin. The four are taken into government custody at Area 57, where their abilities are examined and treated as potential military assets. Believing that he caused the accident and Ben's transformation, Reed escapes before the government can begin testing him. He promises Ben that he will find a cure and disappears.

	~~== Plot ==~~		One year later, Reed is living as a fugitive in Central America and has created a specialized suit that allows him to better control his body. He continues researching the accident and concludes that returning to Planet Zero may provide the energy needed to reverse their transformations. Sue locates him by identifying the unique energy signature produced by his experiments, and Ben—who has been deployed by the military on covert missions—is sent to capture him. Reed is returned to Area 57, where Dr. Allen offers him access to the Baxter Foundation's resources in exchange for rebuilding the Quantum Gate. Johnny and Sue have also begun working with the government and wear specialized suits designed to regulate their powers. Ben, resentful that Reed abandoned him, refuses to believe his promise that their conditions can be reversed.
	~~Childhood friends~~ Reed ~~Richards~~ and ~~Ben Grimm work together on~~ a ~~prototype teleporter, eventually attracting~~ the ~~attention of Professor Franklin Storm~~, ~~director of~~ the ~~Baxter Foundation, a government-sponsored research institute for young prodigies~~. Reed is ~~recruited~~ to ~~join~~ the ~~foundation and aid Storm~~'s ~~children, scientist Sue Storm and engineer Johnny Storm,~~ in ~~completing a "~~Quantum Gate" designed ~~by Storm's protégé~~, ~~Victor Von Doom~~.

	The ~~experiment succeeds,~~ and the ~~facility~~'s ~~supervisor, Dr~~. ~~Allen~~, ~~plans~~ to ~~send a NASA team to a parallel dimension known as "~~Planet Zero.~~" Disappointed at being denied~~ the ~~chance~~ to ~~join~~ the ~~expedition, Reed, Johnny~~, and ~~Victor~~, ~~along with Ben, use~~ the Quantum Gate ~~to embark on an unsanctioned voyage~~ to Planet Zero. ~~There~~, ~~they discover a world filled with otherworldly substances~~. ~~When~~ Victor ~~attempts to touch~~ a ~~green lava-like substance,~~ the ~~ground erupts~~. ~~Reed, Johnny,~~ and ~~Ben return to their shuttle as Sue brings them back to Earth, but Victor falls~~ into the ~~collapsing landscape and is seemingly killed~~. The ~~Quantum Gate explodes, altering~~ Reed~~, Sue, Johnny, and Ben on~~ a ~~genetic level and granting them superhuman abilities: Reed can stretch like rubber,~~ Sue ~~can become invisible and generate~~ force fields, Johnny ~~can engulf his body in flames and fly, and~~ Ben ~~acquires a rock-like hide with superhuman strength and durability. They are placed in government custody~~ to ~~be studied and have their abilities tested~~. ~~Blaming himself for~~ the ~~accident~~, ~~Reed escapes~~ and ~~tries to find a cure for their transformations~~.		After Reed repairs the gate, a government expedition returns to Planet Zero. The team discovers Victor alive and fused to his damaged environmental suit. Exposure to the dimension's energy has granted him telekinetic abilities and connected him physically to Planet Zero. He is brought back to Earth, where Franklin attempts to reason with him. Victor believes humanity will inevitably exploit and destroy Planet Zero as it has Earth. Viewing the dimension as his true home, he decides that Earth must be eliminated before another expedition can take place. He uses his powers to kill the personnel at Area 57, including Dr. Allen and Franklin, before opening the Quantum Gate and returning to Planet Zero. Reed, Sue, Johnny, and Ben follow him through the portal. Victor, now calling himself Doom, activates a machine built from the remains of the original expedition. The device creates a massive portal above Planet Zero that begins consuming Earth's surface and transferring its matter into the alternate dimension. The four attempt to confront Doom individually but are defeated. Reed realizes that Doom expects them to behave as separate experiments rather than as a team. Sue contains the portal's energy with her force fields while Johnny redirects the energy surrounding the machine. Reed restrains Doom long enough for Ben to strike him into the portal's central beam, disintegrating him. Johnny then overloads the machine, and Sue closes the portal before it can consume Earth.

	~~One year later~~, ~~in 2015, Reed, now a fugitive, has built a suit~~ to ~~help control his ability~~. ~~Hiding in Central America~~, ~~he is eventually found by the United States military with Sue's help and captured by Ben, who has become~~ a ~~military asset along with Johnny and Sue. Johnny and Sue have been outfitted with specialized suits to control their abilities. Reed is brought to Area 57~~, where ~~Dr. Allen conscripts him into rebuilding the Quantum Gate in exchange for resources to find a cure. Arriving on Planet Zero, Dr. Allen's explorers find Victor, who has been fused to his spacesuit~~ and ~~now possesses telekinetic abilities, and bring him back to Earth~~. ~~Believing~~ that ~~Earth must be destroyed~~ to protect ~~his new home world from future invasions, Victor kills the scientists~~ and ~~soldiers in~~ the ~~base, including Dr. Allen and Professor Storm, and returns~~ to ~~Planet Zero using the Quantum Gate, with Ben, Johnny~~, Reed, and ~~Sue in pursuit~~.		After returning home, the four refuse to continue serving as government weapons. In recognition of their actions, they are granted control of a new research facility known as Central City, where they can study their powers and conduct independent scientific work. Reed proposes that they use their abilities to protect others and explore phenomena beyond conventional science. When the group is asked what they intend to call themselves, Reed looks toward his teammates and begins to answer.

	~~Dubbing himself "Doom~~,~~" Victor activates a portal on Planet Zero using~~ the Quantum Gate and begins consuming Earth's landscape with a structure created from Planet Zero's rock formations. He is confronted by the four, and after a short battle, Ben punches Doom into the portal's energy beam, disintegrating him while Johnny closes the portal. Returning to Earth, the group is rewarded by the U.S. military with a new base of operations known as "Central City" to study their abilities without government interference. They decide to use their powers to help people and adopt the mantle of the "Fantastic Four."		The film ends before he finishes, revealing the Fantastic Four insignia.

	~~''The Fantastic Four'' premiered on July 22, 2024, at the David H. Koch Theater in New York City, and was released on July 28, 2024, as part of Phase One of the MCU.~~

	== ~~Future~~ ==		=== Theatrical ===
			''The Fantastic Four'' had its European premiere on July 22, 2024, at the David H. Koch Theater in New York City. The film was released in the United States on July 28, in IMAX, Dolby Cinema, RealD 3D, ScreenX, and 4DX. It is the second film of [[Mob Cinematic Universe: Phase One\|Phase One]] of the MCU.

	=== ~~Sequel~~ ===		=== Home media ===
	~~A sequel was confirmed to be in development as soon as the~~ film was released.		The film was released on Disney+ on September 21, 2024, and was available to purchase on Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and DVD on September 24. The home media releases include deleted scenes, a gag reel, director's commentary, and featurettes.

	=== ''Doctor Doom'' prequel film ===		== Reception ==

			=== Box office ===
			As of August 10, 2024, ''The Fantastic Four'' has grossed $384.2 million in the United States and Canada, and $508.4 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $892.67 million. The film was considered a strong commercial success for Phase One of the universe, especially given its $120 million production budget. Deadline reported that the film comfortably cleared its break-even point, and Disney executives cited it as a sign of regained audience confidence following several underperforming entries in previous years.

			Leading up to its release in July 2024, ''The Fantastic Four'' was projected to open with $85–100 million domestically, with internal targets set at $95 million. Industry tracking estimated global opening weekend earnings to land between $170–190 million. The film earned $37.4 million on its opening day, including $12.3 million from Thursday night previews. It went on to earn $96.8 million in its opening weekend domestically, alongside $102.6 million internationally, bringing its global debut to $199.4 million—making it the highest-opening film in the franchise’s history. IMAX screenings contributed $22 million worldwide.

			In its second weekend, ''The Fantastic Four'' dropped 51%, earning $47.4 million and retaining the top spot at the box office. Analysts noted the hold as a healthy sign, comparing it favorably to steeper second-week drops seen in other recent superhero films. The film earned $22.7 million in its third weekend, a drop of 52%, finishing second behind the horror release ''The Haunting of Briar Hollow''. Strong international legs, especially in South Korea, the UK, and Brazil, helped the film remain a consistent performer well into its fourth week.1

			=== Critical response ===
			On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, 88% of 351 critics gave ''The Fantastic Four'' a positive review. The site’s critics consensus reads, “Blending sleek retro aesthetics with grounded character work, ''The Fantastic Four'' reinvents Marvel’s First Family for a new era—anchored by a commanding performance from Pedro Pascal and a tone that balances cosmic wonder with human emotion.” On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 72 out of 100, based on 58 critics, indicating “generally favorable reviews.” Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of “A–” on an A+ to F scale, while PostTrak reported an average score of 4.3 out of 5 stars, with 78% of viewers saying they would definitely recommend the film.

			Owen Gleiberman of ''Variety'' praised the film as “a smart, confident reboot that finally gets the tone right,” highlighting its 1960s setting and noting that “Ebon Moss-Bachrach steals nearly every scene as a grounded, emotionally complex Ben Grimm.” Clarisse Loughrey of ''The Independent'' gave the film 4 out of 5 stars, calling it “a vibrant homage to pulp science fiction, elevated by Julia Garner’s haunting turn as Silver Surfer and the film’s bold use of practical effects.” Richard Lawson of ''Vanity Fair'' described it as “a return to form for Marvel’s ensemble storytelling,” though he noted that some of the cosmic elements “veer into exposition-heavy territory.”

			Less enthusiastic was ''The Hollywood Reporter''’s Frank Scheck, who gave the film a mixed review, saying, “While the cast shines and the script avoids the typical origin slog, the final act teeters under the weight of franchise setup.” Peter Bradshaw of ''The Guardian'' gave the film 2 out of 5 stars, writing, “The 1960s setting is clever, but the charm wears thin once the visual effects take center stage over character.”

			Despite some reservations about pacing and worldbuilding, ''The Fantastic Four'' was widely considered a creative and tonal step forward for the franchise, with critics praising its ensemble cast, stylized production design, and commitment to a fresh narrative identity.
