The non-teaser trailer for The Fantastic Four – First Steps is out.

Directed by Matt Shakman, this retelling of the story of Marvel’s First Family stars Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn Vanessa Kirby and Ebon Moss-Bachrach

This is a good trailer. Yet, I’m not enthused by the look of the Silver Surfer as a villain. I guess it’s supposed to be a ‘simpler look.’ Nevertheless, knowing what I’ve seen of the usually delightful excess that is Marvel villainy in many of their other movies, I’m definitely underwhelmed. On the other hand, I’m not overly familiar with The Fantastic Four story. So, I may be missing plenty.

I’m certain that I already love Pascal as Mister Fantastic.

How are you feeling now that this promising trailer has been released?

Natasha Lyonne, John Malkovich, Ralph Ineson, Sarah Niles, Julia Garner and Paul Walter Hauser also star.

The Fantastic Four – First Steps Release Dates: July 25th, 2025 (US & UK)…

Directed by Matt Shakman (WandaVision (2021), The Fantastic Four – First Steps is the story of Marvel’s First Family.

Starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach, balancing family time with the demands of defending Earth is a key part of this action/adventure/sci-fi story.

I’ll admit that I cannot say my film-loving senses came fully alive while this teaser trailer played. Except maybe when I saw and heard Pedro Pascal. Beyond that, the musical score sounds good.

As a non-reader of comic books, I’ll wait and see what the next trailer has in store. In the meantime, it’s perhaps worth remembering that I wasn’t very enthused by The Avengers (2012) trailer. Yet, after many positive responses from friends, I decided to watch and ended up exiting the cinema with a massive smile on my face.

What are your thoughts on this Marvel ‘period piece?’

Sarah Niles, Julia Garner, Natasha Lyonne, John Malkovich, Ralph Ineson and Paul Walter Hauser also star.
