'Fantastic Four' and an Alternate Marvel Universe

David, Richard, and Rebecca share their thoughts on The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and if the movie is a success as a Marvel reset. Plus, they imagine a world where Marvel never existed and what that would have meant for some of the franchise stars' careers. Then, they wrap up with a festival-related listener question. Our next Little Gold Men book club read is Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell. We'll be discussing the novel and its upcoming film adaptation on our August 7 episode. We've also added one more book for this summer, the third most-popular in our listener survey: The Ballad of a Small Player by Rowan Joffé. We'll be discussing that one on our August 28 episode. Read along with us and send your questions to littlegoldmen@vf.com.
