Fantastic Four: First Steps is finally bringing the first family to the Marvel Cinematic Universe next month, and after several trailers Iām starting to wonder how much weāll actually see Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal) stretching his limbs as Mr. Fantastic. Each glimpse we get of him using his powers appears to be from one of two scenes in the movie. This final trailer shows him just a little more, but I still want to see that stretchy king smack someone around with long, flailing limbs. I hope the fact that Marvel has kept it under wraps in the trailers isnāt indicative of him not being in the action as much.
The final trailer for First Steps doesnāt really tell us much that we didnāt already know. Galactus is coming and the Silver Surfer is here to foreshadow his arrival. We still donāt see more than the planet-eating invaderās foot in this trailer, and at this point, I guess we wonāt get a really good look at him until the film premieres on July 25. These trailers have shown a lot of the same stuff each timeāthis latest trailer perhaps showing even less than previouslyāand the most charitable read I can give is to assume that Marvel is keeping this movieās secrets close to its chest. The Fantastic Fourās debut is a big deal for the MCU, and maybe you donāt want to spoil every surprise and cool sequence, but in doing so itās kept me from finding anything to latch onto. How many different times can I hear Invisible Woman say that theyāll handle this apocalyptic moment as a family? Julia Garner still looks pretty sick as the Silver Surfer, though
Check out the full trailer below:
Fantastic Four: First Steps is the first film in the MCUās Phase Six, and then the movies will take a break for a bit until the recently delayed Avengers: Doomsday premieres on December 18.
