In addition to winning over critics and cinephiles and earning an 86% Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score, a 91% audience score, and a solid 7.3/10 IMDb rating, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is currently among the top ten highest-grossing movies of 2025 globally. Its global earnings have already outgrossed major 2025 releases, including Captain America: Brave New World, Thunderbolts*, Sinners, and Final Destination: Bloodlines. However, surpassing Brad Pitt’s F1 and James Gunn’s Superman looks unlikely.

Recently, Marvel’s latest Fantastic Four reboot has also surpassed the lifetime grosses of Men in Black II (2002), The Mummy Returns (2001), The Bourne Ultimatum (2007), Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (2023), and Terminator Genisys (2015). The superhero movie is now closing in on the highest-grossing John Wick film. Here’s how First Steps compares with the John Wick franchise at the global box office.
