The Fantastic Four is Marvel Comics’ “First Family,” and their arrival in the MCU has been a long time coming. After a mid-2000s duo of films that met with modest success, a 2015 reboot that totally flopped. Marvel fans have waited patiently for the iconic FF to make it to the MCU. And now, they’re here at last. At San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios presented fans with a special preview teaser trailer of The Fantastic Four film, which has a new official title as The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Production will begin for this film on July 30, which is right after SDCC.
The iconic heroes are here, in all their ’60s glory with Mister Fantastic teaching kids. The entire crew heads to space, seemingly as run-of-the-mill astronauts and blast off for space adventures.
The new Fantastic Four cast is truly a formidable one, with Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm/Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm, the Thing. Game of Thrones actor Ralph Ineson plays the Devourer of Worlds, Galactus. And as his herald the Silver Surfer is Ozark actress Julia Garner.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps will hit theaters on July 25, 2025.
More to come…
