Marvel’s newest release is off to a flying start. ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps,’ directed by Matt Shakman, has become a much-needed success for Kevin Feige’s MCU. With an impressive global opening of $218 million and $118 million coming from the US, it’s now the franchise’s biggest launch yet, as per The Hollywood Reporter. Here's how the film is faring at the Indian box office.
In India, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, starring Pedro Pascal, opened with ₹5.5 crore on Friday, July 25, 2025, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. The film saw a positive jump on Saturday, July 26, 2025, earning ₹7.1 crore, but faced a slight drop on Sunday, July 27, 2025, bringing in ₹6.86 crore, an unexpected dip for a weekend collection. Its three-day total in India now stands at ₹19.44 crore.
The film is up against strong regional competition, including Hari Hara Veera Mallu, which pulled in a massive ₹64 crore over the weekend. However, the surprise box office story remains the romantic drama Saiyaara, which continues to draw steady crowds and has collected ₹30 crore on its tenth day alone.
Globally, The Fantastic Four: First Steps has proven to be a win for Marvel, earning a whopping $218 million in its opening weekend, with $118 million coming from the US market.

It’s up to the superhero team, Mr. Fantastic (Reed Richards), The Invisible Woman (Sue Storm), The Human Torch (Johnny Storm), and The Thing (Ben Grimm), to confront the intergalactic menace and protect humanity.
