The latest trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps offers a clearer vision of the new Marvel Cinematic Universe landscape and the pivotal role Julia Garner's Silver Surfer will play.
This two-and-a-half-minute sneak peek reveals how the team—Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), the Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), and the Human Torch (Joseph Quinn)—helped shape their world into a beacon of hope. In this reality, Marvel's First Family is revered not just as an (expanding) team of heroes who protect the world, but as inspirational figures for everyone. Their abilities, however, will soon be tested when Garner's Silver Surfer arrives from the heavens with a dire warning about the approaching threat of Galactus.
Compared to previous footage, this new trailer delivers significantly more action. We see Ben Grimm crashing through solid structures, alongside a proper showcase of Reed Richards' elastic powers. These fresh interpretations of the Fantastic Four's classic abilities, honed over decades, promise an exciting dynamic when the team hits the big screen this July.
Even so, the standout moment belongs to Julia Garner's Silver Surfer. With just a few chilling words—declaring this alternate Earth "marked for death"—this iteration of the Surfer demonstrates immense power, effortlessly deflecting the Human Torch and weaving through chaos at incredible speed. While the trailer keeps Galactus's full new MCU design under wraps, we do catch a glimpse of the colossal being's destructive entrance into the city.
