The tease in question came from a roundtable interview forThe Fantastic Four: First Steps.ScreenRant’s own Ash Crossan was in attendance to witnessKevin Feige outline aFantastic Fourcrossoverhe’d love to witness in the MCU: Johnny Storm/The Human Torch and Spider-Man.
Feige revealed that chemistry reads were not conducted when casting the former, but that a"blue sky dream"of being able to portray certain dynamics is often in mind. Feige continued with:
“That’s a great example. That’s one of the key relationships in Marvel Comics, Johnny Storm and Peter Parker. And we’ve never been able to come close to it before…”

The MCU’s Current Setup Makes A Spider-Man & Fantastic Four Crossover Seem Impending Already
What makes these comments even more interesting is that the current state of the MCU makes aSpider-ManandFantastic Fourcrossover seem incredibly likely.The Fantastic Four: First Stepsis, very aptly, the first step in making this possibility. The film will solidify the titular team as an MCU mainstay, whichThunderbolts*' post-credit sceneconfirmed.
Then, in 2026, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man will return to the MCU.Spider-Man: Brand New Daywill usher in a new era for the franchise’s version of the Web-Slinger, making him even more important to the movies beyond. Thanks to this setup, the MCU is making Peter Parker’s friendship with Johnny Storm more likely.
Where The Human Torch & Spider-Man Are Most Likely To Meet In The MCU
The reason for this is the two upcomingAvengersmovies.Avengers: Doomsday’s cast listis already confirmed to include the members of The Fantastic Four, proving just how integral they are going to be to the culmination of the Multiverse Saga. Although Spider-Man has not been confirmed for either yet, it is incredibly unlikely that he will not appear.
After all, Spider-Man is one of the MCU’s biggest, most recognizable heroes. For this reason alone, he can be expected to appear inAvengers: DoomsdayorAvengers: Secret Wars. Admittedly, the latter is the most likely place, asAvengers: Secret Warsis where the Fantastic Four’s fight against Dr. Doom will come to a head.
Therefore, it makes a lot of sense for Spidey to join up with them and the other Avengers in a final battle. If this happens, it would allow a team-up with Johnny Storm to come to fruition as soon as December 2027, fulfilling Kevin Feige’s most recentMarvel Cinematic Universecrossover dream.
