The Fantastic Four: First Steps looks phenomenal! The trailer for the long-awaited reboot gives fans a first official look at the First Family in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Christmas has come early for Fantastic Four fans! It was an open secret that the first trailer for the franchise’s reboot in the MCU was just around the corner, with many expecting it to appear during the Super Bowl. However, it seems Marvel wasn’t content with sharing the spotlight, with the studio dropping the trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps early to celebrate February 4th (aka, F4 day!).
The trailer is everything fans were hoping for. It highlights the retro-futuristic aesthetic key to the marketing of The Fantastic Four: First Steps so far. It reveals the official looks of every member of the first family, including the long-awaited debut of Ralph Ineson’s Galactus. The Devourer of Worlds manages to be imposing while still capturing the core of his look in the comics.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps Excites Fans
The Fantastic Four: First Steps has a steep hill to climb to prove itself a success. The film is set to drop in July, bumping shoulders with two other major blockbusters in Superman and Jurassic World: Rebirth. It’s likely sink or swim for the First Family’s future in the MCU, especially given the team’s less-than-stellar box office performance at the last attempt to reboot the team.
It’s likely that more footage from The Fantastic Four: First Steps will be seen at the Super Bowl, with the trailer shown at the big game potentially giving fans their first look at more characters like Julia Garner’s Silver Surfer. From there, promotion for the project will potentially quiet down as Marvel tries to hype up their other MCU films such as Thunderbolts, with a new trailer hitting the web in late Spring.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps opens on July 25, 2025. Stay tuned for all the latest news regarding the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
