The first trailer for the Fantastic Four’s highly-anticipated MCU debut, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, teases a 60s-inspired retro-futuristic world in which Marvel’s First Family must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus and his herald, the Silver Surfer.
Fantastic Four stars Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, aka Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, aka the Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, aka the Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm, aka The Thing. Julia Garner is playing the Silver Surfer, British actor Ralph Ineson is the big bad villain Galactus, and Paul Walter Hauser, John Malkovich, and Natasha Lyonne also star in as-yet undisclosed roles.
This first teaser doesn’t yet give us any glimpse of the Silver Surfer or Galactus, but we’d expect a fuller look at the film’s narrative landscape once the official trailer drops.
The film hails from WandaVision helmer Matt Shakman, directing from a script by Eric Pearson, Josh Friedman, Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer. Eric Pearson penned the current draft of the script.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps will be released in cinemas on July 25th, 2025. Watch the teaser below, and stay tuned for the full, fofficial trailer:
