We are SO excited for Marvel Studios’ upcoming film “The Fantastic Four: First Steps.” Welcoming the First Family of Marvel Comics into the MCU is something we didn’t think would happen. Especially with a cast this good!
This morning, Marvel Studios released a special (but short) “fantastic first look” behind the scenes featurette. It really highlights the incredible art direction and retrofuturism elements that lend so well to this story.


Pedro Pascal (“The Last of Us“) plays Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby (“The Crown,” “Mission: Impossible“) is Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn (“Stranger Things,” “Gladiator II“) is Johnny Storm/Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (“The Bear“) is Ben Grimm/The Thing. Julia Garner (“Ozark,” “The Americans“) is playing Shalla Bal/The Silver Surfer. Paul Walter Hauser (“Blackbird“) was also added to the cast, but his role is also being kept underwraps. John Malkovich (“Billions,” “The New Look“) is playing an undisclosed role in the film, and Ralph Ineson (“Game of Thrones,” “The VVitch“) will be the Devourer of Worlds himself- Galactus. Oscar winner Michael Giacchino is handling the score.
