FantasticFour director explains Galactus' controversial look.
While fans wait for the Fantastic Four to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the group has already appeared in three films that were produced by 20th Century Fox. Tim Story directed 2005's Fantastic Four and its 2007 sequel Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. The sequel featured the classic Marvel Comics villain Galactus. However, many fans were disappointed with how different the film version looked from the comic book one. While speaking to ComicBook.
In the comic books, Galactus is a giant, who looks like a human. However, in Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Galactus instead looked like a cosmic cloud. When asked about the villain's look in the film, Story said that he does not think it was the best interpretation of the character. He also talked about how Galactus' look shows how much superhero movies have changed since his Fantastic Four films.

At the time, the biggest Marvel movies were Fox's X-Men films and director Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movies. Since that time, Marvel has introduced more cosmic characters like the Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain Marvel.
