MCU: 8 Ways To Integrate Fox Characters

3. Fantastic Four - An Origin Story

Of all the heroes on this list, The Fantastic Four are the most in need of saving by the MCU. Fans of Marvel's First Family have been continuously short changed by Fox, with two sub-par iterations (one of which was considerably worse than the other). If they were to enter under the Disney umbrella, there would be incredible pressure for the studio to do the family justice.

Since Fant4stic left such a bad taste in the mouth for fans, Marvel has to completely erase any memory of the Josh Trank flop and this starts with an origin story. Though this would be the third time seeing this on the big screen, it would be necessary to give The Fantastic Four the start they deserve in the MCU.

Having Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben encounter the cosmic radiation that results in their powers would answer the question of why there has been no reference to them at all in the MCU so far - until this accident they were just ordinary citizens.

Superheroes are no strangers to the world at this point in the MCU, and with their new found powers The Fantastic Four would decide to do their bit to protect the world. There is even the former Avengers Tower standing in New York that, after being sold by Tony Stark in Spider-Man: Homecoming, would make a perfect Baxter Building for the MCU's newest heroes.
