Summary

Captain America: Brave New World may not have lived up to everyone’s expectations (we liked it), but there are reasons to believe that Marvel Studios will still be able to call 2025 a major success. We explain why Thunderbolts* and The Fantastic Four: First Steps will likely be better (and received better) than the MCU’s first theatrical installment of the year. Hosted by ⁠⁠Sean Gerber⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Paul Hermann⁠⁠. Follow MCU Fan Show on ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠X (formerly Twitter)⁠⁠!
