First Steps Features Four Cameos Only Hardcore Marvel Fans Noticed

This article contains discussions about “Fantastic Four: First Steps.”

The new movie “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” falls on the fifth time that the title characters have been brought to the big screen in the direct event. The previous repetition in 2015, which was directed by Josh Truk, was widely hated by critics and the masses, because his dialect was unnecessarily, and the story of the stories was incompetent. Its sharp adjustments from the original “Fantastic Four” traditions are not a sin as a general lack of quality. Before that, Tim Story directed a pair of “Fantastic Four” films in 2005 and 2007, and these films were vulgar, but also somewhat few; There was not much of the supernatural movement that FF fans yearn for.

The first version of Fantastic Four was not released to the film to the audience. In 1994, director Oli Sasson and CEO Roger Korman received the rights of the film for the characters, and soon raised a very cheap movie, called “The Fantastic Four”, just keeping it legally. The film starred Alex Hedy White in the role of Red Richards, Rebecca Stap in the role of Su Storm, Michael Billy Smith as something, and Jay Andrewd in the role of Johnny Storm.

Marvel Comics fans knew about the movie, as there were a few small press data, but for many years, no one has been able to see it. New Concorde, Corman, did not already give the movie the release date, and remained on the shelves. Thanks to the trick clowns, the film began to spread with that. Marvel fans were very curious to allow the film to stay hidden, and illegal tapes began making tours. After many decades, millions were seen “The Ride Fantastic Four” and may be considered an official part of FF history.

As such, “First Steps” makers decided to honor the Sasson movie, which was not released by including his team. If you look closely, both Hyde-LHite, Staab, Smith and Underwood have Cameos.

For the record, the 1994 movie “Fantastic Four” is completely decent. It picks up a tone and FF position completely, naming their illustrative language and family dynamics ready for comic series. Sasson’s movie is only underestimated by its incredibly low budget; SFX is laughingly bad, and groups are made of plywood. She only had a budget about one million dollars. A story made in the 2015 documentary can be seen “Domed! The actors and crew team talks about their experience in making the film, and their reaction to the lack of release.

Since the film is very well known, it was fair for Matt Shamman to include the references in his 2025 movie, which was legally released. The sharp Marvel fanatics will discover them. For example, there is a scene in which Richards (Pedro Pascal) deals with the press to tell them about a cosmic threat coming from space. Two correspondents played at the press event by Hyde White and Stap. Its location is easy to locate, as Shamman puts them directly in the frame.

Meanwhile, Andrews and Samith can be seen in an early montage in the “first steps”. There is a news stage that depicts the Fantastic Four that enacted various works of the tournament, and Johnnat Storm (Jonathan Queen) is looking at a few factory workers from the power plant at risk. Underwood will be identified as one of the rescue operations, although Smith may be a more difficult place; In the “Fantastic Four”, it was mostly inside a joint rubber suit.

Hyde-LHite, Staab, Underwood and Smith attended the “First Steps” in Hollywood as well. Marvel seemed to realize that the movie Korman was known by the audience in general and that his stars had no real opportunity to shine. The “first steps” gave them a great gift. It was a gift, and the audience was able to enjoy.
