The Marvel Cinematic Universe officially has its Fantastic Four. Or should we call it five? The new film, which is in theaters now, is largely centered around the fact that Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal) and Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby) have a child named Franklin.

Galactus ends up giving the Fantastic Four an ultimatum, telling a pregnant Sue that he'll spare Earth if she gives up her powerful unborn child to him. The group declines his deal, which further angers Galactus, sending him on a vengeful mission to both destroy Earth and take Sue’s child.

Worries that he might not be "normal" are confirmed in Fantastic Four: First Steps when Galactus recognises that the boy can wield an unlimited energy known as the Power Cosmic (presumably because of the "cosmically compromised DNA" shared by both of his parents).

As is usually the case with MCU movies these days, The Fantastic Four: First Steps includes both a mid-credits and a post-credits scene. And also sticking to the traditional formula, one is a goofy little stinger, while another has serious ramifications for the MCU.

First Steps" has a thrilling ending that teases Dr. Doom and where the MCU goes from here in "Avengers: Doomsday."

First Steps director Matt Shakman addresses a big Sue Storm moment in the movie's final act and reveals original plans for Franklin Richards' Marvel Cinematic Universe's introduction.

Reed Richards and Sue Storm’s son, Franklin, is poised to be a major player heading into Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday.

Marvel Studios’ Fantastic Four: First Steps ends with two post-credit scenes that expand the film’s scope and hint at major players in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s future. Both scenes center around Franklin Richards, the young son of Reed Richards and Sue Storm, who is portrayed as more than just a background character.
