After a number of false starts, the Fantastic Four have another feature adaptation in the retro-pastiche Fantastic Four: First Steps. This isn’t the first time Mr. Fantastic and co. have appeared onscreen; They were last seen in Josh Trank’s Fantastic 4 (stylized as Fant4stic) and Tim Story’s Fantastic Four films for Fox.

A Manhattan with a retrofuturist sensibility is among the intriguing visual aspects of the film. We talk with its designers to get the details.
