When Will The Fantastic Four: First Steps Be Available on Streaming?

The Fantastic Four: First Steps experienced a sharp decline after its July 25 opening, falling roughly 66% in its second weekend. While die‑hard MCU viewers flocked to the film to see how this retro‑futuristic reimagining of Earth sets up Avengers: Doomsday, the box office drop echoes the underwhelming theatrical runs of Thunderbolts* and Captain America: Brave New World.

The First Family will get another opportunity to reach audiences when the film arrives on streaming and VOD. Below we summarize the confirmed digital release dates and our best estimates for when it will appear on Disney+.

When will The Fantastic Four: First Steps be available to rent or purchase digitally?

The Fantastic Four: First Steps is scheduled to debut on major VOD services — including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home — on Sept. 23. Digital preorders are currently available, with the purchase price listed at $29.99.

When will The Fantastic Four: First Steps be available on Blu‑ray/DVD?

The 4K UHD digital edition, plus the Blu‑ray and DVD releases, are slated for Oct. 14. Extras on the physical editions include a gag reel, a featurette chronicling the creation of the Fantastic Four, and audio commentary from director Matt Shakman and production designer Kasra Farahani. The supplements explore the construction of the film’s expansive retro‑futuristic New York sets and the creative process behind adapting characters such as Galactus, Mole Man, and the Silver Surfer.

Also included are five deleted scenes — among them a Fantastic Four Day sequence and extended moments in Subterranea. Retailers will offer special editions: Amazon is listing an exclusive limited‑edition SteelBook bundle that features collectible cards for each family member and a comic‑book tie‑in.

When will The Fantastic Four: First Steps be available to stream on Disney Plus?

Since Marvel Studios is part of Disney, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is expected to make its streaming debut on Disney+. Looking at recent release windows — Thunderbolts* arrived on Disney+ on Aug. 27 after a May 2 theatrical opening, and Captain America: Brave New World hit the service on May 28 following a Feb. 14 release — a November arrival on Disney+ seems likely.
