The Fantastic Four: First Steps wants to sell you on a new MCU
Briefly

Marvel Studios has unveiled an exciting teaser for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, featuring a talented cast including Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby. Set in a '60s Tomorrowland aesthetic, the film portrays the team as down-to-earth celebrities showcasing their powers, with hints of Galactus making an appearance. This film is crucial for launching 'Phase Six' of the MCU, aiming to move past previous cinematic disappointments of the Fantastic Four and establish a fresh narrative trajectory, especially with Doctor Doom poised as a key antagonist.
Featuring the team already suited up and with their powers, living as down-home celebrities in a Tomorrowland '60s aesthetic, the teaser shows off Sue Storm's invisibility, Ben Grimm's rocky exterior, Johnny Storm's flames, and even a quick shot of Galactus - but notably not Reed Richards' stretching.
A lot is riding on the Fantastic Four this time, with the film positioned to kick off 'Phase Six' of the Marvel Cinematic Universe - a new, Kang-less future that ideally clears the way for a better version of Avengers: Secret Wars and the rise of Doctor Doom as the franchise's chief villain.
