Itâs official!
The Silver Surfer and Galactus are back home at Marvel as the characters are related to the Fantastic Four franchise, which Disney just purchased from Fox Studios!
âThe agreement also provides Disney with the opportunity to reunite the X-Men, Fantastic Four and Deadpool with the Marvel family under one roof and create richer, more complex worlds of inter-related characters and stories that audiences have shown they love,â the official press release states.
As Silver Surfer and Galactus are both Marvel COSMIC characters, Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn took to Twitter to offer up he is excited about the deal, and Gunn also responded to Ryan Reynoldsâ own reaction.
While there are many aspects to Disneyâs acquisition of 21st Century Foxâs assets, I am personally incredibly happy about it, for obvious reason.
Welcome home, old friends. https://t.co/MpQHEnOTVL

I was thinking more about, like, you know, the Silver Surfer, but this is a valid point as well. https://t.co/KlpIjfG4qE

James Gunn has also been said to be spearheading the Marvel Cosmic Universe, so itâs likely that weâll eventually see the Sentinel of the Spaceways and the Devourer of Worlds in the MCU some time in the near future.
Gunn is currently working on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.Â
