When Fantastic Four is expected to stream on Disney Plus

by

The Fantastic Four are about to embark on their initial journey within the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), marking the debut of Marvel’s original family. However, if you’re planning to watch it on Disney Plus, you might need to exercise patience as there could be some delay.

Fans have eagerly anticipated the arrival of the Fantastic Four within the Marvel Cinematic Universe for quite some time now – specifically, six whole years! This wait began following Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox and its related comic book properties.

Now, as Avengers: Doomsday approaches (December 18, 2026), with Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom ready to cause destruction, their arrival has become a reality.

After the releases of Jurassic World: Dominion and Superman, it’s expected to be among the most popular films this summer. When will it be available for streaming?

How to watch Fantastic Four

Fantastic Four will be exclusively available in cinemas when it’s released on July 25, 2025.

Nowadays, we no longer have the luxury of simultaneous theatrical and digital releases or Premium Video On Demand (PVOD) drops. If you’re eager to catch a movie before others do, you’ll need to spend some money to visit your local cinema and enjoy it on a grand scale.

To ensure an optimal experience, choose the largest screen available, ideally an IMAX one if you can, as the screen expands noticeably when Galactus appears in the movie.

“The world of Fantastic Four is so big, that it naturally lends itself to IMAX,” Shakman said.

Our intention was to create this film exclusively for IMAX viewing. The unique perspective it offers allows us to simulate both an out-of-this-world space journey and the towering grandeur of Manhattan as a skyscraper city. We wanted to capture these contrasting scales effectively.

Next, consider the greatest entity in the cosmos, and everything else adapts to it. This film exalts the grandeur of IMAX and you’ll truly experience this on the massive cinema screen.

When is Fantastic Four on Disney Plus?

The Fantastic Four movie is anticipated to debut on Disney Plus no later than November 2025, with a possibility that it might begin streaming earlier.

Typically, Marvel films become available for streaming about 3 months following their cinema debut. However, Deadpool and Wolverine had slightly longer waiting periods, with a gap of approximately 4 months between their theatrical premiere and their arrival on Disney Plus.

Thunderbolts is yet to be made available for streaming, as it hit the big screens across the country on May 2, 2025, a period of 80 days has passed without Marvel announcing its release date for streaming.

Depending on how well the movie performs at the box office, either it might stay in theaters longer (since Marvel and Disney would like to capitalize on its success) or it may arrive on streaming platforms earlier (if it underperforms, but it’s not anticipated to do so).

As a gamer, I gotta tell ya, it’s gonna be a while before you can stream it on Disney Plus. We’re talking late October at the earliest, and it might even slide into November. So buckle up and get ready for the wait, my friend!

When will Fantastic Four be on digital?

It’s likely you’ll be able to buy or rent Fantastic Four digitally by September 2025.

Instead of waiting for Disney Plus’s release, you can stream the movie at home earlier by purchasing or renting it digitally. Typically, Marvel films become accessible on-demand around two months following their initial theater debut.

The Thunderbolts movie appeared digitally 60 days following its theater debut. If the same timeframe applies to Fantastic Four, it might become available on digital platforms on September 23, 2025, though this hasn’t been officially announced yet.

Keep in mind that it’s not an inexpensive option; when you purchase or rent Thunderbolts from VOD, it will set you back $24.99 and $19.99 respectively.
