The comic book series began in 1961. The characters were conducting experiments in space when they were exposed to powerful cosmic radiation, which gave them superpowers. Richards became stretched, Sue Storm could become invisible by manipulating light and drawing an invisible force field, Johnny Storm could burst into flames and fly, and Ben Grimm became a rock giant, making the character's life very difficult, but in return he is extremely strong and tough.
This is the first Fantastic Four movie to be produced by Disney, so the team wasn't even part of the MCU. The rights were held by 20th and 21st Century Fox until 2019, and they have produced three films, reviews of which vary widely. Reed Richards already made a brief cameo in 2022's Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness, though he was played by John Krasinski in that film.
So far, this is all that has been revealed about the movie coming next year, so it's unknown if we'll get another original movie, as well as if Doctor Doom becomes their adversary, who gets the role, and if they're facing off against someone else, then who.
