Galactus (Storyverse)



Galactus is the greater scope antagonist of the Tim Story Fantastic Four film series. He appears in 2007’s Rise of the Silver Surfer.

Why He Isn’t Galactus

 * 1) Executive meddling: Tom Rothman doesn’t like a comic book accurate portrayal of Galactus.
 * 2) Most of the time, he resembles a giant cloud.
 * 3) He went from an iconic villain to a generic doomsday villain.
 * 4) He had little screentime.
 * 5) Galactus doesn’t even speak.
 * 6) His design looks nothing like the comic books.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) His inner form resembles his comic book counterpart’s head.
 * 2) He was much better in the comics and the video game Flame On.
 * 3) In theory, his eating of planets explains why the cosmic rays went to the VDI Space Station.

Trivia

 * Galactus would have revealed his true form in a Silver Surfer spinoff film but was cancelled due to Fox not finding a director.
