The producer of the first steps seems to confirm that Sue Storm will be the leader of the team

Traditionally, the Fantastic Four do not have a leader, although Mister Fantastic frequently led on the page. The invisible woman fulfilled a similar role, especially in recent comics managed by writers like Dan Slott and Ryan North.

Sue Storm desperately needs a overhaul on the screen, especially since it has been largely relegated to being candy for the eyes in the Fantastic Four Films from the mid -2000s. Although Kate Mara took an improvement, her work was overshadowed by a dubious reshoots wig.

Talk to collision, The Fantastic Four: First steps The producer Grant Curtis promised that the MCU would deliver a multiple facets, which is potentially described as the leader of this team (or, at the very least, the main character of the restart).

“If you come back by comics, you realize that Sue Storm is undoubtedly the leader of the Fantastic Four, because without Sue Storm, everything collapses,” he explained. “We had the desire to go out with aesthetically, but in terms of character and treatment, which should be in the foreground, it is like, hey, let’s tell the best possible story.”

The site also spoke with Vanessa Kirby, who recalled to have laughed with Reed Richards Pedro Pascal when they read a comic strip from the 1960s who saw him buy a dress to prevent him from complaining. She also hopes to modernize the character, but did not want to make a sue a “Bad boss bitch.” Instead, she decided to find a “The true feminine soul.”

Discussing Pascal’s support during this process, said Kirby, “I have never had a male actor as a counterpart who was so equal and supported the relationship, but also the female character in front of him. I feel so grateful every day to have an actor like Pedro who is so generous.”

He replied by sharing, “I love being managed in a way. What you can identify as a generosity for me is simply not. I am only inspired by … I suppose that powerful women were the thing that made me go in life.”

“So, to have the opportunity to stand up, to learn from a – just a partner, it is a partnership; it is a man and a woman, but it is also just a kind of transcendent partnership in the work and in the characters”, ” Pascal continued. “And so I don’t really know what I’m going to do without you without you [Vanessa] honestly.”

These remarks will generate the expected complaints, but it is clear that all the people involved follow the comics. Pascal and Kirby, on the other hand, seem to have devoted a lot of reflection and time to get this relationship to the screen.

The Fantastic Four: First steps“The story seems ready to turn around Sue, largely because it will be pregnant (and finally give birth to) Franklin Richards. The invisible woman has been established as the most powerful member of this team for decades, so putting it in the foreground feels like the right decision for the introduction of the team in the MCU.
