The favourite heroic foursome is back! But this time they’re not the only super-powered beings on the block in Tim Story’s action-packed sequel to the 2005 hit, Fantastic Four. Starring Ioan Gruffudd, Jessica Alba and Chris Evans, the Silver Surfer has arrived on planet Earth on a mission of destruction! Catch the blockbuster as it premieres on Saturday, October 04 at 9 pm, exclusively on Star Movies.

The Fantastic Four face their greatest challenge yet again. When the havoc wreaked by the strange and shiny visitor catches the attention of four especially powerful Earth dwellers who aren’t willing to go down without a fight, the battle is on to save the planet from certain annihilation. Meanwhile, with his super-powered nemesis momentarily distracted, the nefarious Dr. Doom begins concocting a plan with the potential to overshadow even the Silver Surfer’s destructive antics.

On the sequel, Jessica Alba says, “The challenge was to make the movie better than the original. In the first one, everyone was still trying to figure out the tone but this is one of the few comic-book movies that’s really tongue in cheek, lighthearted and family-oriented. It’s not dark or heavy with characters having inner struggles about hidden identities.”
