“The Fantastic Four: First Steps” grossed $118 million at the domestic box office over the weekend—largely meeting earlier projections, but still placing it behind “Superman” for the biggest superhero film opening of 2025 so far.

Joseph Quinn has been on a hot streak since his breakout role as Eddy in Stranger Things. In the past few years, Quinn has featured in major dramatic films like A Quiet Place: Day One, Gladiator II, and now Fantastic Four: First Steps.

Marvel’s First Family — as embodied by the quartet of stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach — was in attendance at the world premiere for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, held at Los Angeles’ Dorothy Chandler Pavilion on Monday.

This iteration of the Fantastic Four has a standalone adventure without all the burden of the MCU's history and cast of characters.

Between Stranger Things and joining the MCU as Johnny Storm, Joseph Quinn changed pace with Hoard, a gruelling drama by Luna Carmoon.

That might sound like no big deal, but after 2023’s “The Marvels,” this spring’s fourth “Captain America” movie and “Thunderbolts*” all underperformed by Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) standards, the new “Fantastic Four” may offer broader audience appeal by not pulling from other franchises.
