The Fantastic Four: First Steps is set up to be a unique adaptation of the popular Marvel story, and Kevin Feige's recent comments confirm it. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is finally introducing Marvel's First Family to their universe, but telling this story has proven to be too big a challenge in the past, time and time again. However, the MCU has managed to pull off seemingly impossible feats several times over at this point.
For instance, the MCU began with Marvel attempting to create a shared universe of stories with the remaining obscure characters it held onto. Due to several tough years in the 1990s, Marvel sold most of the rights to big-name heroes and teams, like Spider-Man, Hulk, the X-Men, and The Fantastic Four. However, despite having to start with the B-list heroes in their lineup, the MCU redefined the landscape for these characters, and elevated lesser-known heroes to become icons in their own right.
