Fantastic Four: First Steps Director Teases MCU Galactus: ‘Go Big or Go Home’

The Fantastic Four: First Steps director Matt Shakman is opening up about the film’s central villain, Galactus, and it sounds like he won’t be making the same mistake as past film adaptations. Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, Galactus debuted in Fantastic Four #48 in 1966 and is one of the most iconic characters in all of Marvel Comics.
