Vanessa Kirby didn’t expect her first pregnancy to come with superpowers — but art has a funny way of imitating life. The Crown alum, who is currently expecting her first child, says stepping into the role of Marvel’s Invisible Woman helped her prepare for motherhood in ways she didn’t see coming.

Vanessa Kirby, celebrated for her role as Sue Storm in 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' is also garnering attention for her pregnancy with partner Paul Rabil. The couple, linked since 2022, sparked engagement rumors after Kirby was spotted with silver rings.

Kirby reveals the two have a song playlist for their characters. When asked what would have been Richards and Storm's wedding song, Pascal offers up a popular tune from the '60s — which makes perfect sense as Fantastic Four is set in a retro-futuristic version of that era.

This would be especially true for someone like Vanessa Kirby, who’s our new Sue Storm Richards/Invisible Woman and will also star in the 2026 movie release, the highly-anticipated Avengers: Doomsday.

Starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Julia Garner, it's really the power of motherhood that becomes the greatest asset for these superheroes in The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
