The latest trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps offers an exciting glimpse into a new Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) world, showcasing how Julia Garner’s Silver Surfer fits into this narrative. This two-and-a-half-minute clip delves deeper into the universe crafted by Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), the Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), and the Human Torch (Joseph Quinn). Their efforts have transformed their world into a utopian society where Marvel's First Family is revered as a (growing) team of heroes. They not only protect their world but also serve as role models for all ages. However, their peace is threatened when Garner’s Silver Surfer appears from the sky, forewarning of the looming danger posed by Galactus.
Today's trailer stands out with its increased action sequences compared to previous footage. Viewers get to see Ben Grimm smashing through pillars and a fresh take on Reed Richards’ iconic stretchy abilities. These are modern interpretations of the classic powers that the Fantastic Four have wielded for decades, and fans will have a chance to see how they collaborate come this July.
Julia Garner's portrayal of the Silver Surfer steals the spotlight in this trailer. Despite her limited dialogue, warning that this alternate Earth is now "marked for death," her character exudes a powerful presence as she effortlessly counters the Human Torch and navigates through fiery explosions. While the trailer keeps Galactus' full appearance in the MCU under wraps, it does offer a glimpse of him devastating the city upon his arrival.
