The first trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps gets a release date a little short of six months ahead of the MCU movie’s release. The Fantastic Four: First Steps is set to release on July 25 2025, following Captain America: Brave New World and Thunderbolts*. Taking place in an alternate universe, The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces a brand-new iteration of Marvel’s First Family, starring Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm, and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, plus Julia Garner playing Silver Surfer and Ralph Ineson portraying Galactus.
As confirmed by ABC News‘ schedule for the week of February 3rd, The Fantastic Four: First Steps‘ first official trailer will be unveiled on Tuesday, February 4th. The trailer will come out a little over a week before Captain America: Brave New World‘s worldwide theatrical release. The Fantastic Four: First Steps‘ general storyline and supporting characters will likely be revealed in the first trailer.
What The Fantastic Four: First Steps Trailer Release Date Means
The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Biggest Reveals Are Being Kept Secret
So far, Marvel Studios has only released a couple of official The Fantastic Four: First Steps concept images, an official logo, an official theme, and the confirmation of the main cast and villain. Very little else is known about The Fantastic Four: First Steps, meaning that the first official trailer could either contain multiple shocking reveals or maintain most of the movie’s key information a secret in order to save it for its release. Captain America: Brave New World, Thunderbolts*, and DC Studios’ Superman have all released their first official trailers much earlier than The Fantastic Four: First Steps.
Our Take On The Fantastic Four: First Steps Trailer Release Date
The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Trailer Has Some Questions To Answer
Regardless of whether The Fantastic Four: First Steps‘ first official trailer reveals major plot points or not, there are a few questions it will inevitably clarify, if not fully answer. How Galactus’ anthropomorphic appearance and variable size suit work, the level of CGI that Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s the Thing will employ, and what the тιтular team’s final costumes will look like are all questions that may be answered by the first trailer. Most importantly, how exactly the Fantastic Four fit into their alternate timeline will probably be elucidated by The Fantastic Four: First Steps‘ first trailer.
Other questions might be saved for future trailers, spots, or the movie itself. For instance, the idenтιтy of Natasha Lyonne’s mystery The Fantastic Four: First Steps character, as well as the idenтιтy of Paul Walter Hauser’s character, and who’s voicing HERBIE. Whether any version of Doctor Doom or another MCU character will cameo are questions that seem more likely to be answered once The Fantastic Four: First Steps hit theaters on July 25, 2025.
