AceShowbiz - Marvel Studios released an exhilarating new trailer for the upcoming film, "The Fantastic Four: First Steps." Fans have been eagerly waiting for the Fantastic Four to join the MCU's ensemble, and this trailer delivers a taste of what’s to come.
The gripping trailer begins with a talk show host introducing the iconic group: 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).
Shortly thereafter, exciting revelations follow, including the news that Sue and Reed are expecting a baby. Unfortunately the happy vibes abruptly ended with the mysterious entrance of Julia Garner's character, Silver Surfer. This enigmatic Herald warns the team about an imminent threat from Galactus, a god-like figure shown only through a colossal shadow moving through New York City.
This movie will mark the first time Marvel's beloved superhero team will be fully incorporated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) in its third cinematic iteration. It promises high stakes as the Marvel First Family "face their most daunting challenge yet," according to an official synopsis.
"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 and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer. And if Galactus' plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren't bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal."
In addition to the main cast, the film features Paul Walter Houser, John Malkovich, Natasha Lynne, and Sarah Niles, with Ralph Ineson providing the ominous voice of Galactus. Directing this ambitious project is Matt Shakman, known for his work on the 2021 Disney+ series "WandaVision."
Marvel confirmed that the Fantastic Four's main cast will also play pivotal roles in next year's "Avengers: Doomsday," which sees Robert Downey Jr. playing Victor Von Doom/Doctor Doom, a notorious adversary of the Fantastic Four. These characters are also expected to appear in "Avengers: Secret Wars," scheduled to release on May 7, 2027.
"The Fantastic Four: First Steps" is set to light up theaters on July 25.
