Marvel’s Youngest Hero Is Born!
It’s been confirmed that Marvel Studios‘ youngest superhero ever will be a central character in their latest film. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has a history of starting its heroes at a young age, with figures like Peter Parker, Shuri, and Billy Maximoff being just some examples. However, the MCU will venture into uncharted territory with the upcoming “Fantastic Four: First Steps,” featuring the youngest superhero in franchise history, Franklin Richards.
In the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe blockbuster, Vanessa Kirby’s Sue Storm and Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards are said to have a newborn son who plays a crucial role throughout the film. This character, named Franklin, is known for his immense powers in the comics, able to alter reality across various universes. With such powerful abilities, Franklin could become a central figure in the MCU. Rumors indicate that he might make an early impact on the franchise.
Based on accounts from a screening event for the upcoming “Fantastic Four: First Steps” in Brazil, it appears that Franklin Richards is set to have a significant part in the forthcoming movie, as fans were given a sneak peek of 30 minutes featuring him.
At 4FantasticoBRA’s X post, they shared an in-depth explanation of the footage, uncovering that the storyline of “First Steps” is centered on characters Franklin and his mother, Sue.
“The plot seems to revolve around Sue and Franklin, but it’s Reed who leads the decisions.”
Initially, it was anticipated that Marvel Studios’ youngest superhero would play a part in the storyline of “First Steps“; now, it appears this Omega-level superhero might be instrumental in the encounter between the Fantastic Four and the malevolent entity Galactus.
The highly anticipated film “Fantastic Four: First Steps” hits theaters on July 25th, marking the long-awaited debut of this classic superhero team within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In this movie, Vanessa Kirby portrays Sue Storm as the leading character, accompanied by her fellow extraordinary team members – Pedro Pascal plays Reed Richards, Ebon Moss-Bachrach takes on Ben Grimm’s role, and Joseph Quinn embodies Johnny Storm.
Under the guidance of Matt Shakman, director of Loki’s series, I find myself immersed in First Steps – a captivating exploration of an alternate reality for Marvel’s iconic family. In this world, our Earth faces imminent destruction at the hands of Galactus, a cosmic entity known for consuming planets, skillfully voiced by Ralph Ineson, who graced the screens as a notable character in Game of Thrones.
Franklin Richards’ Bright MCU Future
As a dedicated movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled about the upcoming introduction of Franklin Richards in “Fantastic Four: First Steps.” Despite being just a baby, his entrance promises to captivate Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) viewers due to his immense potential power.
In the upcoming series, First Steps, he is set to assume a crucial position. This role could lead him to vanquish the colossal Galactus and send this cosmic being on his journey. It appears that the young protagonist’s future holds great promise (here’s an initial glance at Franklin Richards).
In summary, it’s worth noting that Franklin Richards is among the most potent entities in the Marvel Comics universe, and his presence within the Marvel Cinematic Universe could potentially lead to unforeseen events. With the entry of the Fantastic Four into Marvel Studios’ cinematic universe, viewers will effectively be treated to a “Fantastic Five” if they incorporate Franklin Richards into their storyline. This is highly recommended for a more comprehensive and engaging experience.
Currently, I’m merely at the cradle stage. My abilities to potentially reshape realities are yet untapped, making me vulnerable and an alluring prospect for notorious villains to manipulate.
It’s possible that in the upcoming “Avengers: Doomsday,” there might be a significant involvement of the infant character. There are whispers suggesting that this baby could be abducted by Robert Downey Jr.’s portrayal of Doctor Doom, who is rumored to use the child for his evil plans.
According to reports, this situation apparently leads the Fantastic Four to journey through various dimensions and eventually end up in the main Marvel Cinematic Universe, where they aim to protect their latest charming team member.
