When is 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' coming to streaming? Here's our best guess
"The Fantastic Four: First Steps" takes us back in time to a retro-futuristic world, introducing us to the group — Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) — as they defend the Earth from a terrifying presence: Galactus (Ralph Ineson).
The movie's already on its way to success: at the time of writing, it's bested James Gunn's "Superman," earning a higher Rotten Tomatoes score than the DCU summer blockbuster. And, given the amount of hype behind "Fantastic Four: First Steps," box office success seems bound to follow.
If you can't make it to the movies to see the new "Fantastic Four" movie anytime soon, we don't currently have a "Fantastic Four: First Steps" streaming date just yet. That said, below I've made an educated guess at when the movie might be available to watch at home.
At the time of writing, the only way to see "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" is by heading to your nearest movie theater. It only hit the big screen on July 25 (or July 24, in the U.K.), and that's likely where it'll stay for some time.
And before it makes its streaming debut, the "Fantastic Four's" new adventure will first hit premium video-on-demand (PVOD) storefronts like Amazon or Apple.
Like I mentioned, we do not yet have a streaming release date for "The Fantastic Four: First Steps," but I have an idea of when the movie might land on Disney Plus. Right now, I'm predicting "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" will come to Disney Plus in (or around) October 29, 2025.

That's based on the average length of time we've waited for recent Disney releases to come to Disney's streaming services.
For example, Rami Malek thriller "The Amateur" recently came to Hulu (and Disney Plus, outside the US) 98 days after it hit the big screen. "Snow White," meanwhile, came to Disney Plus 83 days after it premiered, whilst "Captain America: Brave New World" landed on May 28, 104 days after it first hit theaters. Looking further back, we waited 97 days to stream "Mufasa: The Lion King," and 106 for "Moana 2".
So, if we assume we'll wait around 90-100 days to stream "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" on Disney Plus, we arrive at that potential Disney Plus release date of Wednesday, October 29, 2025 (hence my guess above).
Nothing official has been confirmed by Disney, though, and if this new Marvel release approaches "Deadpool & Wolverine" levels of box office success, there's every chance Disney might keep it in theaters a little longer.
As soon as we get any official news or a confirmed "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" streaming date, we'll be sure to update this article.

Behind-the-Scenes Video Revealing How SUPERMAN's Most Criticized Flight Shot Was Filmed — GeekTyrant
James Gunn has cleared the air on one of Superman 's most talked-about moments, revealing exactly how the controversial barrel-roll flying shot was pulled off. In a new behind-the-scenes video shared on Instagram, Gunn shows David Corenswet strapped into a practical rig on a soundstage at Trilith Studios. The actor is being physically spun by a crew member to simulate the dynamic mid-air roll, while massive LED screens project a snowy mountain backdrop filmed on location in Svalbard, Norway. 'On the stage at Trilith shooting the barrel roll through the mountains. All the plates were shot previously in Svalbard. 7.26.24,' Gunn wrote in the caption. The footage confirms a mix of old-school practical work and cutting-edge digital environments, shutting down earlier theories that the shot was entirely CG. This moment became a flashpoint back when it debuted in a Superman TV spot earlier this year. Some fans criticized the sequence for looking 'off,' even claiming Corenswet's face had been digitally replaced. Gunn addressed those claims head-on months ago, writing, 'There is absolutely zero CG in his face. People's faces can look different when you put a wide-angle lens up close. The background plate in Svalbard is 100% real, as is David.' Now, the new video offers proof. What looked like pure CGI to many was actually Corenswet on a practical rig with real-world elements integrated into the shot. Gunn's reveal highlights the creative process behind bringing Superman's flight to life in a way that feels tangible. It's a fascinating look at how the film blends practical effects with advanced tech, staying true to the cinematic ambition Gunn promised from the start.

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY – Our First FULL Look at Tom Holland's Amazing New Suit! — GeekTyrant
Spider-Man is back, and he's rocking a whole new vibe. Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures just dropped the first full look at Tom Holland's latest Spider-suit for Spider-Man: Brand New Day in a new video, and it's sure to get fans excited! The suit made a brief appearance in yesterday's teaser, but now we've got the full reveal, and it's designed with a clear nod to the suits worn by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, this version brings together the designs of both Spidey worlds. There's the deep, matte red, the navy blue mesh texture reminiscent of Garfield's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 , and the raised black webbing that channels the Raimi-era aesthetic. Right in the center, the spider emblem is larger and more angular, combining classic boldness with the sleek lines seen in Holland's earlier MCU appearances. The suit also looks like it's more homemade and there's no Stark tech. No gadgets, no AI, just Peter Parker doing it all on his own. It's a perfect reflection of where the character is now. As you know, Peter was stripped of his identity after the memory wipe in Spider-Man: No Way Home , and starting over without his former support system. Set photos have already started popping up online, with production kicking off in Glasgow, Scotland, once again subbing in for New York City. Keep your eyes peeled, because more glimpses of the new suit are sure to surface. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is slated for release on July 31, 2026, as part of Phase Six of the MCU. Returning writers Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers are handling the script, which reportedly takes Peter back to being a street-level hero in NYC. The movie is said to be relatively standalone but is expected to set the stage for next December's massive crossover Avengers: Doomsday . The film's cast is stacked alongside Holland, featuring Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Sadie Sink, Liza Colón-Zayas, Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, and Michael Mando. Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters July 31, 2026. Check out the video below and let us know what you think of the new suit!

Valued at $214.9 billion by market cap, the company's businesses include media networks, parks and resorts, studio entertainment, consumer products, and interactive media. Shares of this entertainment giant have outperformed the broader market over the past year. DIS has gained 27% over this time frame, while the broader S&P 500 Index ($SPX) has rallied nearly 16.6%.

Zooming in further, DIS' outperformance looks less pronounced compared to the Communication Services Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLC). The exchange-traded fund has gained about 26.7% over the past year. However, the ETF's 11% gains on a YTD basis outshine the stock's single-digit returns over the same time frame. Disney's outperformance is driven by strong Q2 earnings, streaming momentum with 126 million Disney+ subscribers, and growth in domestic parks and experiences. The company also expects double-digit segment operating income growth in Entertainment for fiscal 2025, which is expected to fuel the rally and positive analyst sentiment. On May 7, DIS shares closed up by 10.8% after reporting its Q2 results. Its adjusted EPS of $1.45 exceeded Wall Street's expectations of $1.18. The company's revenue was $23.6 billion, beating Wall Street forecasts of $23.1 billion. DIS expects full-year adjusted EPS to be $5.75. For the current fiscal year, ending in September, analysts expect DIS' EPS to grow 16.3% to $5.78 on a diluted basis. The company's earnings surprise history is impressive. It beat the consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters. Among the 28 analysts covering DIS stock, the consensus is a 'Strong Buy.' That's based on 21 'Strong Buy' ratings, two 'Moderate Buys,' and five 'Holds.' This configuration is more bullish than two months ago, with 20 analysts suggesting a 'Strong Buy.' On Jul. 29, Mizuho Financial Group, Inc. (MFG) maintained a 'Buy' rating on DIS with a price target of $138, implying a potential upside of 15.9% from current levels. The mean price target of $132.64 represents an 11.4% premium to DIS' current price levels. The Street-high price target of $148 suggests an upside potential of 24.3%.
