Reed Richards, a brilliant and impossibly stretchy theoretical physicist, leads his found family—the brilliant strategist and forcefield-architect Sue Storm, her hot-headed and fiercely loyal brother Johnny Storm, and the lovably grumpy, rock-skinned pilot Ben Grimm. Based in the brightly-lit Baxter Building, they don't hide their powers; they embrace them as pioneers of the new age of marvels. When a series of mysterious, colossal sinkholes threaten to swallow famous landmarks around the globe, the team embarks on a highly publicized expedition deep beneath the Earth's crust to "Monster Isle." There, they discover an underground kingdom of giant, vibrantly colored Kaijus ruled by the eccentric, misunderstood intellectual known as the Mole Man. Dressed in their classic, bright blue-and-white unstable molecule suits, the Four must rely on their chaotic but loving family dynamics, profound scientific intellect, and spectacular teamwork to stop an all-out war between the surface world and the deep underground. It’s an upbeat, highly intelligent, visual pop-art spectacle about science, discovery, and above all, family.
