THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS Debuts Julia Garner’s ‘Silver Surfer’ In The New Marvel Chapter

Talk about consistency…

If there’s one thing I admire about the Marvel films, it’s the fact that they all have a way of still delivering compelling stories that drive the curiosity. It certainly starts with the teasers and trailers and how they package the little morsels required to fascinate audiences, and the same certainly goes for Matt Shankman’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps, as of Thursday.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios’ ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ introduces Marvel’s First Family—Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm/Human Torch and Ben Grimm/The Thing as they face their most daunting challenge yet.

The newest official trailer is out and features Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach in the titular quartet. The film also features Julia Garner in the Shalla-Bal iteration of Marvel mainstay Silver Surfer, returning the silvery protagonist back to the screen for the first time since Doug Jones and Lawrence Fishburne debuted the character for then-20th Century Fox’s take on “Norrin Radd” in 2007’s Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer.

It’s also possible that the post-clip at the end is one of the Celestials who’ve been referred to throughout several of the Marvel movies thusfar. I’m no authority on comic book matters but there’s definitely an empassioned effort so far to cohese things in the process of this franchise’s growth.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps opens July 25. Take a look!
