The project brings together Marvel's top creative minds, ensuring the Fantastic Four receive the cinematic treatment they deserve.
Why This Release Matters for Indian Marvel Fans
The direct-to-Disney+ Hotstar release means Indian subscribers won't have to wait through extended windows or pay additional rental fees. This approach aligns with Disney's growing focus on making content immediately accessible to its streaming audience in key international markets like India.
