Galactus Looms Large in Final Trailer for ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’

The Marvel Cinematic Universe just dropped its final trailer and last look at The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and it’s the clearest signal yet that a new era is dawning. This isn’t just a reboot, it’s a statement. Marvel Studios is closing out the summer with a bang, and they’re betting big on the return of one of their most storied teams.

The newly released trailer gives the best glimpse yet at Galactus, as Julia Garner’s Silver Surfer warns “I herald his beginning, I herald your end, I herald….Galactus.” The towering cosmic force, many fans have waited years to see on screen. His presence isn’t just a cameo or Easter egg it looks central. The Fantastic Four are clearly being positioned not just as legacy characters but as major players in the evolving shape of the MCU.

While the Fantastic Four are making their long-awaited MCU debut, this isn’t a one-off. Their journey is already expanding, key cast members are reportedly shooting scenes for Avengers: Doomsday. That’s not just a sequel setup; it’s an integration plan.

Marvel hasn’t had an easy time lately. Some recent projects struggled to land. But with First Steps, the studio is clearly aiming for a comeback. Big visuals, deep stakes, and iconic characters, it’s the formula that built the MCU, and they’re hoping lightning strikes twice.

The core team features Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm (Invisible Woman), Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm (The Thing), and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm (Human Torch).

With the cast already filming scenes for Avengers: Doomsday, it’s clear Marvel has long-term plans for the Fantastic Four. Their introduction isn’t just a one-off, it’s a cornerstone. And with tickets now on sale for the July 25 release, the countdown has officially begun.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps hits cinemas one month today on July 25. You can watch the final trailer below.
