Vanessa Kirby plays Sue Storm aka the Invisible Woman in The Fantastic Four: First Steps, but she wants to see this villain in the MCU.
I get it, a mother's love means sacrifice, selflessness, and everlasting dedication. But why does it almost always mean death onscreen? These were the questions I had while watching The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Vanessa Kirby, much to her surprise, had no trouble committing to the sprawling MCU as she was cast in The Fantastic Four: First Steps, where she portrays Sue Storm/Invisible Woman in Marvel Studios’ official launch of Phase Six.
This would be especially true for someone like Vanessa Kirby, who’s our new Sue Storm Richards/Invisible Woman and will also star in the 2026 movie release, the highly-anticipated Avengers: Doomsday.
Kirby reveals the two have a song playlist for their characters. When asked what would have been Richards and Storm's wedding song, Pascal offers up a popular tune from the '60s — which makes perfect sense as Fantastic Four is set in a retro-futuristic version of that era.
Starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Julia Garner, it's really the power of motherhood that becomes the greatest asset for these superheroes in The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
