What happened in The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ trailer shown at Brazil D23?
During the Marvel Studios panel on November 9, fans at Disney’s D23 Brazil event previewed an extended teaser from The Fantastic Four: First Steps. The trailer shared similarities with the San Diego Comic-Con teaser but added several new details. Attendees saw Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards leading a class lecture on parallel Earths, hinting at the film’s Multiversal focus. Richards’ attempt to engage a group of disinterested children is punctuated by his playful promise of an explosion.
The Fantastic Four trailer also highlighted the team preparing for a crucial space mission before obtaining their powers. Reed Richards praises Ben Grimm (played by Ebon Mass-Bachrach) as “the best pilot,” reinforcing Grimm’s essential role. Visuals of the Fantasticar, a retro-futuristic vehicle inspired by old Cadillacs, further illustrate the film’s unique aesthetic, blending nostalgic design with modern elements.
A family theme runs throughout the teaser. In one scene, Reed announces a weekly family dinner at “Saturday at 7,” reflecting the Fantastic Four’s familial bond. Footage also includes the Fantastic Four dressed in formal attire and an appearance in a dating game segment, where Vanessa Kirby’s Sue Storm humorously introduces her brother Johnny (Joseph Quinn) as “very single.”
As the teaser unfolds, the team appears in blue and white space suits, approaching their rocket for a historic launch. Crowds, dressed in 1960s-inspired attire, gather to watch the televised event, as children flock around electronics store windows. Fans caught a glimpse of Ralph Ineson’s Galactus peering into a window, hinting at the cosmic scale of the threats the team will face.
Fantastic Four: First Steps will be released on July 25, 2025. Fans can expect more footage at the CCXP convention in December. An official trailer could also be released online as early as February.
