Top 7 Movies Coming to Starz in October
Here are a few of the top movies that will be added to the Starz streaming library in October:
1. Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure
Two ditzy teens explore history in 1989’s “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure.” The cult-favorite has spawned two sequels, the most recent having just dropped in 2020. It all started with Keanu Reeves as Ted and Alex Winter as Bill, two teens about to fail history class. Fate intervenes in the form of George Carlin. He plays a visitor from the future who tells them that their music is destined to create a utopia – but only if they pass their class. He lends them a time machine in the form of a phone booth to hop around history, cram with characters of the past, and save the world.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Fans of Bill and Ted got a big treat this year in the form of “Bill & Ted Face the Music,” one of the new movies released to screen at home. Before checking out the most recent adventures of our favorite airheaded pair, go back to the beginning on Starz and see where it all started (well, and ended – this is time travel, after all.) The whole thing is one absurd, glorious romp that’s well worth an hour and a half of your time. You get rampant silliness, ridiculous vocabulary (it is genuinely bodacious, as they’d say), and a Doctor Who-esque blue phone booth time machine. It would be “most heinous” to miss out.
2. Titanic
The story of the Titanic shipwreck in 1912 was re-told in an elaborate and expensive style in 1997’s “Titanic.” Kate Winslet is Rose, a first-class teen engaged to the overbearing but rich Cal, played by Billy Zane. Her world opens up as she encounters the third-class Jack, and they start a steamy secret romance. Upon meeting an iceberg, however, everything falls apart – most notably, the ship. “Titanic” achieved spectacular popularity after it came out and caused legions of movie audiences to swoon and cry in equal measure.
Why it’s Worth Watching
The rocket of “Titanic” ‘s success was fueled largely by teenage girls, and I will admit that I was one of the most enthusiastic of all of them. I saw it many times in the theater with my friends, I belted out the cheesy theme song “My Heart Will Go On,” I planned for my bridesmaids’ dresses to be modeled after Rose’s wardrobe. Oddly enough, perhaps, I haven’t seen it since then. It was just so popular in the late 90s that it would naturally lay fallow for a while. Now, however, it seems like a great time to visit the movie. Is it a bit melodramatic? Perhaps. But it’s hard to match it for romance and sheer spectacle – and beyond that, for the fact that it’s the general story of a tragedy happened.
3. Witness
A violent crime brings together two disparate cultures in 1985’s “Witness.” A young Amish boy witnesses a murder, and Harrison Ford plays John Book, the police officer investigating the incident. In the process, Book goes to the boy’s Amish settlement and lives with his family, including his mother Rachel, played by Kelly McGillis. Tensions rise as a forbidden attraction builds between Book and Rachel, and as the lives, all involved are put in danger.
Why it’s Worth Watching
“Witness” has achieved plenty of acclaims for its performances as well as for its central questions. How does a non-violent community react to an act of violence? How can two people from different backgrounds get along, and how far can that go? Today people feel more divided than ever, even without the complication of religion. Though it may not feel like it, mutual respect is possible, and this classic from the 80s might be the thing to prove it if you check it out.
4. Spy Kids
Carmen and Juni Cortez (played by Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara) are kids who think their parents are just normal, not-cool people. However, they soon find out that their parents, played by Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino, are top spies – spies that have been captured and need rescue. It is up to Carmen and Juni to figure out how to work all their parents’ tech and infiltrate the lair of Fegan Floop (played by Alan Cumming), a tv show host and maker of nefarious robots. “Spy Kids” was popular enough that three sequels, “Spy-Kids 2 followed it: The Island of Lost Dreams” in 2002, “Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over” in 2003, and “Spy Kids: All the Time in the World” in 2011. The first three are all on Starz.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Kids love to feel powerful. Heck, don’t we all? “Spy Kids” started a franchise of movies that celebrate kids’ abilities to not only cope with the world’s problems but also to face them head-on. Even better, this movie involves actively rescuing parents, those symbols of the Man who are always keeping kids down. At the same time, however, it celebrates family integrity and family loyalty in ways that please the older set.
5. Bring It On
(Watch on Starz) – (Available on 10/9)
Kirsten Dunst stars in this cheerleading-themed comedy from 2000. She plays Torrance, a high school senior just taking over as captain of her cheerleading squad, the Toros. All goes well until a new squad member points out that their award-winning routines were stolen from another high school’s team, the Clovers. The Clovers are from a less affluent part of town and comprised mainly of students of color. Torrance sets out to reinvigorate her squad with new dances and energy to prepare for the Regional competition, where the Toros and the Clovers will both “bring it on” for the chance at cheerleading dominance. The movie and the sequels will all be on Starz this month.
Why it’s Worth Watching
In 2000 the cheerleading world got a spotlight like never before: “Bring It On” premiered, and with it, we got fantastic dance/cheer routines, a bubbly Kirsten Dunst, and the origin of “jazz hands” as a popularized phrase. “Bring It On” brought it enough that no less than five sequels were made, although none had any of the original cast, plus a Broadway musical with music written by Lin Manuel Miranda of “Hamilton” fame. But it is the racial element that makes the first so relevant to today. Dunst’s character is well-meaning and well-off and ignorant of her privilege, as so many people are. “Bring It On” is a reminder that racism pervades in both large and small areas of our lives, including the cheerleading stage.
6. Bridget Jones’ Diary
(Watch on Starz) – (Available on 10/16)
The popular book “Bridget Jones’s Diary” was adapted into this film of the same name in 2001, bringing Renee Zellweger into the lead role. She plays Bridget, a woman who struggles with her job, her weight, and her love life, keeping a diary about the process as a way to cope. However, things change for her when two men come into her life: there is Hugh Grant’s dapper Daniel, her boss, and Colin Firth’s grumpy Mark Darcy. Bridget must awkwardly navigate the choice between the two. Her further adventures are explored in two sequels, 2004’s “Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason,” and 2016’s “Bridget Jones’ Baby.”
Why it’s Worth Watching
Bridget Jones is certainly not the most stellar example of a modern, feminist woman. None of us aim to obsess over our weight that much, and her diary’s obsession with men means she might not pass the Bechdel test with herself. That said, these are things that women (and people in general) think about, and we don’t do ourselves any favors denying it. Sometimes it is just fun to poke fun at ourselves. The book is also known to be loosely based on Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice,” which means that these obsessions have the heft of classic literature.
7. Waitress
(Watch on Starz) – (Available on 10/16)
Waitress Jenna, played by Keri Russell, longs for more out of her life in this 2007 movie. Her marriage to her abusive husband is miserable, with her only real outlet being making creative and amazing pies. An unexpected pregnancy further complicates matters – at least until she falls for her handsome OB/GYN. Supporting her are her friends and fellow waitresses Becky (Cheryl Hines) and Dawn, played by Adrienne Shelly. Shelly also wrote and directed the movie, but tragically died before its premiere.
Why it’s Worth Watching
“Waitress” provides a tremendously satisfying arc for Jenna as we watch her get the nerve to stand up for herself. But it’s even more fun to see what pies she makes to symbolize what’s going on in her life. A smashed-berry pie is called “I hate my husband,” while she creates a luscious dark chocolate pie during her affair with the doctor. The pie gives us all a unique insight into what Jenna is going through. After watching, check out clips online from the “Waitress” musical, which brilliantly sets up Jenna’s plight in song.
Great Movies Still on Starz
There are some great movies still on Starz from months prior. We keep a running list below.
Office Space
Cult classic “Office Space” gives the world view from a cubicle and how dreary it is. Ron Livingston plays Peter, a guy just zoning through the constant mild irritations of life at a software company. After attending a hypnotherapy session with his girlfriend, he has an epiphany of sorts and begins to give work its due, which is very little. With that off his mind, Peter can concentrate on getting together with a similarly frustrated waitress named Joanna, played by Jennifer Aniston, and on hatching a scheme with his coworkers to get even with the company for its workers’ poor treatment.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Is it possible that there was a time before we knew about the sweet satisfaction of smashing a printer to bits in an open field? Or that we didn’t know about the agony of TPS reports? “Office Space” launched as many memes as it did because it managed to show so adeptly what millions of workers know: office work can be soul-sucking. Give it a watch, validate your own experience of frustration, and then order your own red stapler, which Swingline started making after being popularized in the movie.
Looper
“Looper” from 2012 provided another take on time travel, this time involving assassins. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Joe, one such time-traveling killer aka “looper.” Part of the deal is that he must eventually kill his future self, played by Bruce Willis. Older Joe, however, has a plan of his own. Emily Blunt also stars as Sarah, a woman with telekinetic powers. Many of the mind-bending paradoxes of time travel that we know and love come into play, combined with non-stop action-adventure.
Why it’s Worth Watching
There are many iterations of time travel, from the cerebral in “Star Trek” to the funny suspense in “Back to the Future.” “Terminator” gave us a glimpse of the sort of terror that could ensue when the future comes back to bite you. And then there is “Looper,” which gets your heart pounding even as your head spins. Anyone who wants to know the full extent of time travel possibilities will want to give it a watch.
Legend of Bagger Vance
In 2000’s “The Legend of Bagger Vance” Matt Damon plays a golfer, Runnulph Junuh, who goes to war and comes back traumatized and unable to swing. He becomes an alcoholic and distances himself from his girlfriend, Adele, played by Charlize Theron. However, after encountering Bagger Vance, he is brought back to the game, a mysterious man played by Will Smith who acts as his caddy and inspires him. With Vance’s help, Junuh attempts to turn his life and his golf game around.
Why it’s Worth Watching
While “The Legend of Bagger Vance” is a sports movie, a comedy, a drama, and a love story, it is also a retelling of a Hindu epic the Bhagavad Gita. In the epic, a warrior is unable to fight but must be inspired by the god Krishna in the helpful Bhagavan guise. Who knew that a golf game could hold such universal themes? It’s worth trying the movie out if only to see the ever-evolving new telling of old tales, and to get some old-fashioned inspiration along the way.
Panic Room
This horror movie from 2002 gave people a whole new way to be terrified of home intruders. In it Jodie Foster plays Meg, a divorcee who moves into an old Brownstone with a quirk: it has a panic room with closed-circuit television monitoring the entire house. Unfortunately, she and her 11-year-old diabetic daughter have to use it immediately as intruders break-in during their very first night there. The panic room does not turn out to be a safe-haven, however, as the criminals will stop at nothing to get what they want – which turns out to be inside the room.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Why watch horror movies at all? During scary times it is a little odd to think of watching something scary for fun. However, it can be empowering to face some of your fears in the limited, controllable world of film. Watching Meg take on the horror of a home invasion, compounded by the danger to her daughter, can be cathartic. If she can take on big bad guys with nothing but unpacked boxes and moxie, maybe we can take on a pandemic with fabric masks and handwashing.
Men in Black
What if there were a top-secret agency tasked with dealing with alien forces at work on Earth? Such is the premise of “Men in Black,” 1997’s movie starring Tommy Lee Jones as a seasoned agent who has seen it all and Will Smith, a new recruit. The two don sunglasses and cool black suits and encounter aliens of all kinds, from the silly to the bizarre to the malevolent. The movie was popular enough that a series was made including “Men in Black II” in 2002, “Men in Black 3” in 2012, and “Men in Black: International” in 2019. All except “Men in Black 3” will be on Starz.
Why it’s Worth Watching
While shape-shifting aliens may seem crazy, what comes off most unlikely these days is that a secret agency would operate with some level of competence and ethics. We were a bit more trusting in 1997, I think, and it feels nice to go back to that time. A secret agency keeping things from us for our own good? Sounds perfectly legit and reassuring. Also, “Men in Black” blends science fiction and humor in a way that we haven’t necessarily seen since, and that alone makes it worth a watch.
The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)
After Tobey Maguire but before Tom Holland, there was Andrew Garfield. In this 2012 film, Spider-Man’s origin story is told once again, complete with slick effects and all the catharsis of seeing an angst-ridden teen given superpowers. Uncle Ben is there as well as Aunt Mae, played notably by Sally Field. The villain he faces this time is the reptilian lizard. This iteration of Spider-man got one sequel before the franchise spun off to Disney.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Just how many times can we watch Peter Parker get bitten by a spider, be surprised by his powers, and finally take to heart that with great power comes great responsibility? Well apparently our appetite for his origin story is never ending. This SpiderMan came about soon after Sam Raimi’s SpiderMan trilogy starring Tobey Maguire. Modern audiences are probably more familiar with the Disney versions from the Marvel Cinematic Universe starring Tom Holland. Do we need Andrew Garfield in there too? Well, why not. If there’s anything we learned from “Spider-man: Into the Spider-verse,” endless variation on a theme can be endlessly entertaining.
Philadelphia
“Philadelphia” caused waves when released in 1993 because it was one of the first major movies to address homophobia and AIDS discrimination. None other than the popular Tom Hanks played the subject of that discrimination, a lawyer named Beckett, who has AIDS. He sues his company for wrongful termination because of the disease. Denzel Washington plays the lawyer who takes his case despite his homophobia. “Philadelphia” received acclaim for its bold message and the acting and makeup used to show Beckett’s decline.
Why it’s Worth Watching
“Philadelphia” remains an important movie for modern audiences, especially for those hoping to understand the history of discrimination against LGBTQ people and the horrors of the AIDS epidemic. Even those of us who were around at the time probably did not realize the full extent of the havoc AIDS caused in the lives of people who already faced tremendous difficulty. Additionally, we must understand the past to help face today’s struggles with equality. Sadly even thirty years later, the fight for LGBTQ rights continues. “Philadelphia” can give crucial context to that battle.
Dances with Wolves
Kevin Costner produced, directed, and starred in this western epic set in the 1860s. He plays a Union officer, John Dunbar, who goes west to explore the frontier. While there he encounters a tribe of Sioux Native Americans and develops a relationship with Stands with a Fist, a white woman who was adopted as a girl by the tribe. Dunbar eventually befriends the people in the tribe and earns the name “Dances with Wolves” for his play with the wolf Two Socks. However, just like in reality, the Union army was always marching westward, and the lives of Dunbar and the Native Americans are soon disrupted.
Why it’s Worth Watching
“Dances with Wolves” was a surprise hit in 1990, earning both popular acclaim and seven Academy Awards. Modern audiences may balk a bit at the “white savior” narrative of Dunbar being portrayed heroically to save Native Americans from his people. However, even with its faults, the movie enlightened white viewers about the Native Americans’ perspective at the time. “Dances with Wolves” gave viewers a much-needed, visceral kick in the emotional gut, and waking up to the real state of our sins (past and present) is as crucial now as it was then.
Maid in Manhattan
The classic Cinderella story gets another telling in this 2002 rom-com. This time Cinderella is Jennifer Lopez, playing a maid in a Manhattan hotel. While she is trying on a guest’s fancy coat, she meets a well-to-do senatorial candidate played by Ralph Fiennes. Fiennes’ character is smitten with her, assuming she is a hotel guest, and antics ensue. Along the way, the audience is treated to makeover scenes with gorgeous gowns and all the classic rom-com tropes our modern cynical hearts could desire.
Why it’s Worth Watching?
What if Lord Voldemort got together with a fabulous rock star?! For me, that is the hidden subplot of this movie. Any Harry Potter fan will be wide-eyed with muggle wonder at Ralph Fiennes’ portrayal of the dashing leading man. I mean, of course, he’s an actor, but don’t tell that to the images of him as a nose-less villain lodged in my subconscious. Almost equally bizarre is the idea that Jennifer Lopez could be considered anything other than glamourous. Her luscious curls and perfectly lovely lashes are not dampened by hard manual labor, it seems. Nevertheless, my rom-com-loving self can’t help but enjoy this movie, and if anything, its oddities in casting give it even more intrigue.
Open Season
This animated movie from 2006 led to a series of sequels, two of which are currently on Starz (“Open Season 2” and “Open Season Scared Silly”). In the first movie, a bear played by Martin Lawrence ventures out from his home with a human park ranger and rejoins life in the wild. He is joined by Elliot, a mule deer played by Ashton Kutcher. The other creatures in the forest provide a slew of slapstick comedy. The bear and mule deer must band together with the forest animals to repel the human hunters that threaten their safety.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Rampant silliness may not be an adult’s cup of tea, but kids will get a kick out of animals being weird. Fish-out-of-water stories are always rife with comedic possibilities, and in this case, it can be great fun to see a bear be the fish. Plus, if the kids like this one, parents can happily put on the sequels secure in the knowledge that they will get a few hours’ peace.
Annie
At this point, you have your choice of “Annie” movies to watch, but this 1982 version will always be the one nearest and dearest to many people’s hearts. In it Aileen Quinn is Annie, the orphan red-head with spunk that we all know so well. She rapidly goes from rags to riches when she is taken in by Oliver Warbucks, a billionaire without a family of his own. The musical numbers are lavish. The acting is wonderfully over the top, especially in the case of orphanage matron played by Carol Burnett and her brother and his girlfriend, Tim Curry, and Bernadette Peters, respectively.
Why it’s Worth Watching?
Somehow we all can’t get enough of Annie. Her story started in the 1920s with a comic book and continued in the Broadway show in 1977. This movie, then, was already treading on hallowed ground when it came out five years later. Though not universally adored at the time, it has come to be must-see viewing for fans of musicals. Even with newer adaptations made in the last few years, this version remains compelling for its dance and its drama. It also remains an illuminating peek into the disparity between the glitz of the rich and the desperation of the poor that was in full force in 1933 – but also continues today.
Before Midnight
Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy star in this romance drama from 2013. Remarkably, it is the third in a trilogy that started 18 years prior. “Before Sunrise” in 1995 had the two actors playing the same characters meeting on a train as two young adults, deciding on a lark to spend the night walking around Vienna. In 2004 the characters met again with more walking and talking in “Before Sunset.” Finally, in 2013 “Before Midnight” yet again moved the pair nine years into the future. This last movie has them married with twin girls and faces the rewards and stress of a long-term relationship.
Why it’s Worth Watching
This trilogy should be required viewing for film fans, if only because it is so amazing that they were made over 18 years. Rarely do we get the chance to examine a relationship in such detail and over such a long time. The subtleties of the acting and the dialogue add depth to that treatment, letting us truly see how two people might find their feelings for each other changing over time. Is it jarring to see young love transform into mature frustration? Yes, of course. But it also feels true, and that is a truth that we all need to see as we grow older like the two characters. Who knows, maybe in 2022 we’ll get to see the couple entering their golden years.
Shakespeare in Love
Before he chilled us with his performance in “The Handmaid’s Tale,” Joseph Fiennes gave us an altogether more charming view of what humanity can accomplish in 1998’s “Shakespeare in Love.” Fiennes plays the Bard himself during some severe writer’s block. He finds inspiration in Lady Viola de Lesseps, a noblewoman played by Gwyneth Paltrow, who loves the theater. Their relationship helps to inspire the “Romeo and Juliet” play that we all know and love so well.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Controversy hit the Academy Awards when “Shakespeare in Love” won the Best Picture award over “Saving Private Ryan.” Many felt it was undeserved – but at least as far as I’m concerned, it is worthy if only for the enduring legacy of Gwyneth Paltrow’s passion for theater and gorgeous dresses. Fans of the stage were granted a gift with this movie, with Paltrow showing just how far we’d go for a life of poetry and adventure. We also gained in-jokes, references to the Bard’s plays, and a host of witty quotes that persist backstage today.
Ice Age
Today the “Ice Age” franchise includes five movies, seven shorts, two television specials, and even a live show. But it all began back in 2002 with the original “Ice Age” movie. Two of the sequels, “Ice Age: The Meltdown” and “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs”, are also in its streaming library. Sid’s original features are a sloth, going on a quest to help a human baby with Manny the mammoth and Diego the saber tooth tiger.
Why it’s Worth Watching
With distance learning over for the summer and many camps closed, today’s kids have a lot of time. It’s great to start a franchise with lots of movies to enjoy, especially one that is almost certainly a sure thing. “Ice Age” was the top animated movie in 2002, as were many of its sequels. The antics of a sloth, mammoth, and tiger, and maybe most notably the zany squirrel with his acorn, are sure to provide a cool way to spend the hot summer months.
The Notebook
You might love “The Notebook,” or you might hate it, but at the very least, you will have the chance to weigh in for yourself on this polarizing 2004 romance. Rachel McAdams stars as heiress Allie who falls for lumber yard worker Noah in 1940. Their romance faces great hurdles in the form of distance and her disapproving parents. The story is narrated by an older man, speaking to a woman with dementia in the present. Though the movie proved to be far too melodramatic for some, it retains a following today due to its sweeping Southern sets and costumes and, most of all, its passionate romance.
Why it’s Worth Watching
“The Notebook” is probably the epitome of cheesy romance movies, and while this has earned it some scorn, the film also enjoys a substantial cult following. Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling are all in on their performances, giving each desperate look and welp of joy all the drama they can take. As such, the chemistry between them is palpable, and the “will they won’t they” tension reaches epic proportions. By the time you reach the ending, the cheese is following freely, but if you are like me, you don’t particularly mind. Who doesn’t love a good helping of cheese, after all?
Little Women
Louisa May Alcott’s classic 1868 novel is given a modern makeover in this version of “Little Women,” which came out late last year. Like the other movies made from the book, this film tells the story of the four March sisters who come of age in the 19th century. However, this version, directed by Greta Gerwig, moves around in time and focuses on the characters mostly as adults. Much of the narrative focuses on Jo, an aspiring writer played by Saoirse Ronan. Jo rejects traditional notions of love and marriage and wants more accomplishments in her life.
Why it’s Worth Watching?
For women today who want still appreciate classic novels, it is great to have an option like “Little Women.” The story is reasonably intact, but the values portrayed reflect a more modern sentiment, making it a good choice to show kids. You can simultaneously love the wardrobe, the romance, and the sisterhood, while also relish the girls’ independence and feisty spirit.
Million Dollar Arm
“Million Dollar Arm,” from 2014, tells the true story of teens from India who are recruited by an American agent to play baseball. Jon Hamm plays the agent, J.B. Bernstein, who is desperate for new talent. The teens’ journey from playing cricket in their native country to baseball in the U.S. is rocky, but ultimately both inspiring and heartwarming. The movie also stars Bill Paxton as the pitching coach and Suraj Sharma and Madhur Mittal as the teens.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Fresh off his success as Don Draper in “Mad Men,” who wouldn’t want to watch Jon Hamm doing just about anything? He is particularly fetching as an agent who believes in the underdog. Add to that the fact that you get to watch people from different countries mingling together, a novelty in the times of COVID. The spectators in the baseball stadium are even not made of cardboard.
Playmobil: The Movie
The popular Playmobil plastic figure toys get a movie of their own in “Playmobil: The Movie,” which premiered in 2019. In it a pair of siblings from our world, Marla and Charlie, get transported into the animated world of Playmobil characters. There they encounter friends like Del, a food truck driver, as well the villain Emperor Maximus. A mad dash around the plastic environments of the toys ends with a showdown with a T-rex. Viewers will recognize a number of the voices, including Daniel Radcliffe, Meghan Trainor, and Jim Gaffigan.
Why it’s Worth Watching
Kids resolving family issues inside the world of plastic toys should sound pretty familiar – it is, after all, the plot of both “The Lego Movie” and “The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part.” Those movies told that story with humor and poignancy. Why, then, do we need this movie? Well, perhaps we as adults don’t. But the Playmobil toys are tremendously popular with kids, and seeing your toys come to life on screen is always thrilling. In the end, they won’t care whether or not this movie reveals something about the human condition. If it sparks a little more magic in their toys, this movie will have been well worth it.
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
A team of superheroes called the Fantastic Four fight for Earth’s survival in 2007’s “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.” It is a sequel to the 2005 film “Fantastic Four” in which Susan Storm (Jessica Alba), Johnny Storm (Chris Evans), Reed Richards (Ioan Gruffudd), and The Thing (Michael Chiklis) get their powers. This time Sue and Reed are about to get married but they have to pause the festivities to face off against the threatening Silver Surfer. Who is this shiny humanoid? Who is he working for? Why does he need to fly about on a silver surfboard? It’s up to the four to find out.
Why it’s Worth Watching
The Fantastic Four is Marvel’s longest-running superhero team. So why, then, aren’t they necessarily a household name now like Iron Man and Captain America? (Especially considering the quite confusing fact that Johnny Storm and Captain America are both played by Chris Evans)? As it turns out long before he was America’s toosh, he was the Human Torch. The Fantastic Four franchise up until recently wasn’t part of the MCU, or Marvel Cinematic Universe, so it isn’t included in the cohesive world-building we have become accustomed. All that might be about to change, however, since Marvel Studios recently regained the rights to the team. Watch some of these to get prepped for what Disney and Marvel might cook up next.
