Comics readers have very particular standards — I first saw the 1994 movie at an unauthorized screening full of fans yelling out their negative comments — and now that the team has entered the Marvel Cinematic Universe, “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” has the chance to finally get things right.

New Marvel theatrical releases tend to arrive on Disney Plus about 90 days after they've premiered in cinemas. That's not a hard and fast rule, mind, with Deadpool and Wolverine taking 97 days and Captain America: Brave New World taking 103 days.

That score even nudges out the new “ Superman ” reboot, which currently sits at 83% on the Tomatometer.
