Author : Sarah Apr 21,2025

Marvel Studios has unveiled the much-anticipated debut trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, offering fans an exciting glimpse into one of the most eagerly awaited superhero films of 2025. The trailer introduces the iconic quartet—Mr. Fantastic, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and The Thing—alongside the formidable supervillain Galactus.

Set against the backdrop of a dinner scene at the Baxter Building, the trailer showcases the film's unique 1960s retro-futuristic setting and hints at an epic battle looming over New York. Viewers get a chance to see Ben Grimm transform into The Thing, and the presence of the team's beloved robot, H.E.R.B.I.E., adds a touch of charm as they both engage in some culinary fun.

PlayThe trailer also features brief action sequences with Sue Storm as the Invisible Woman and Johnny Storm soaring as the Human Torch. Notably absent are any stretchy antics from Reed Richards, aka Mr. Fantastic. Additionally, a glimpse of John Malkovich, rumored to be portraying Ivan Kragoff, the Red Ghost, adds intrigue.

The premiere of the trailer took place at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, where stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach interacted with enthusiastic fans. The Fantastic Four: First Steps is set to hit theaters on July 25, 2025, and boasts an impressive cast that includes Ralph Ineson as Galactus and Julia Garner as Silver Surfer. The film also features Paul Walter Hauser, Natasha Lyonne, and Sarah Niles, with Matt Shakman directing and Kevin Feige producing.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces Marvel’s First Family — Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn), and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they face their most daunting challenge yet. Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). And if Galactus’ plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren’t bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal.

Speculation is rife among fans about Robert Downey, Jr. possibly reprising a role in the MCU, this time as the iconic villain Doctor Doom, either in The Fantastic Four: First Steps or teased for future appearances. Kevin Feige has confirmed that the Fantastic Four will play significant roles in both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
