Marvel Studios brought a message from the cast of The Fantastic Four: First Steps to D23 and it features a first look at the costumes which will be worn by Marvel's First Family in the upcoming reboot.

Only Joseph Quinn's Johnny Storm is suited up, but we get a great look at how the design has evolved since the concept art teaser dropped. It's a cool design, and while we'd imagine this is just one of at least a couple of costumes the team wears, it's hard to find fault with the 1960s-inspired aesthetic (especially with that iconic logo front and centre).

As best we can tell, Pedro Pascal is also in costume; however, he's in clothing that's appropriate for The Fantastic Four: First Steps' setting rather than a superhero uniform. 

Back to Quinn, though, and it seems he's wearing a blonde wig as Johnny to bring the hotheaded superhero more in line with his comic book counterpart.

"He's an inherently funny man," the actor recently said of The Thing actor Ebon Moss-Bachrach. "We will have a period of rehearsals, which will be an opportunity for us all to work on the specific dynamics between the four and beyond."

"I'm very excited at the prospect of working with Ebon. I think he's amazing, and will definitely bring something very unique to his role; the dynamic is the thing that is the most important aspect of these four characters," he continued. "I couldn't think of another three actors that could being as much vigor and life to these other characters, and I'll do my best to do the same."

Check out this new look at The Fantastic Four: First Steps cast below.

Marvel Studios has announced that Pedro Pascal (Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby (Sue Storm/Invisible Woman), Joseph Quinn (Johnny Storm/Human Torch), and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Ben Grimm/The Thing) will lead The Fantastic Four: First Steps cast.

We'll also see Ralph Ineson as Galactus, Julia Garner as Shalla-Bal/Silver Surfer, and Paul Walter Hauser, John Malkovich, and Natasha Lyonne in mystery roles. The story sees Galactus and Silver Surfer target Earth for destruction. 

Director Matt Shakman worked with both Avatar: The Way of Water co-writer Josh Friedman and WandaVision's Cam Squires on The Fantastic Four: First Steps' screenplay, with Eric Pearson (Black Widow) recently coming on board for a final polish.

The movie is set to be released in theaters on July 25, 2025.

Pedro looks nothing like Reed but I hope his acting can sell it.

@SonOfAGif - I was wondering why Gomez Addams was in this movie.

@SonOfAGif - He look nothing like Joel either but he did great in The Last of Us.
That said, I would have liked someone else as Reed.

@dragon316 - should have just gone with a bearded Reed look instead of the moustache alone.

I know we shouldn’t judge people by looks but come on 😭 these are comic book characters.
Johnny is supposed to be this blonde hunky bimbo with a big heart. And hot head.


I’m sure Joseph Quinn is a nice and cool guy and he’s a good actor, but that dye job is awful and he doesn’t look the part at all.

Same with Pedro. But oh well 😞

@TwatSheSaid -

I agree with you, all miscast except for Vanessa Kirby.

But judging from the leaked teaser , Pedro is not convincing me with his acting at all.

Looks like he’s doing an imitation of someone else I just can’t put my finger on whom.

@MisterDoctor217 - deleted wrong message but yes Vanessa is the only good cast member everyone else rings hollow

Yeah man :/
It’s a bummer for me because they are some of my favorite characters

@MisterDoctor217 - Eh? I see where alot of people are coming from. They have done that before and the movie just didnt work. Honestly, I am excited for a new fresh take. Besides, think of it this way, if you dont like the iteration there will always be more. This will be the 4th showing of the Fantastic Four.

@BlackStar25 -

Yeah I hope I’m wrong and it turns out alright man but idk :/


I mean I know people also had problems with the casting in The 2015 version but at least Michael B Jordan and Kate Mara felt like their characters, even Miles Teller felt more like Reed !! The writing was awful but still lol

Also Pedro is looking more like Walt Disney than Reed Richards to be honest.

The Retro look isn't bad at all.

Holy hell that costume is trash. Just when I started to have hope. Hopefully it's not the official one.

Looks like an 80s BMX jersey.

@Nightmare - It is based on the '80s FF costumes by John Byrne.

Pedro just needs to shave but he's going to do a great job with the personality of Reed.

Ebon Moss Baruch is the worst casting of the bunch and has the personality of a wet blanket and even looks out of place with the cast here.
McMurdo
McMurdo - 8/10/2024, 1:41 AM
@HermanM - I'll bet the Kent farm Ebon Moss proves you wrong.... And the property next door.

HermanM - 8/10/2024, 3:44 AM
@McMurdo - the bar is extremely low for him; all he has to be able to do is a good Thing voice.

Pedro is getting a little bit handsy wit The Thing.

July 2025 is going to be a competition for worst costumes. Superman vs Fantastic Four

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - This movie takes place in the 60s, so it makes for it to look cheap. There's no excuse for Superman suit to be that bad

Superman or fantastic four who has the better suit? Both aren't the greatest. For me I would say Superman looks a little better than this

Ugh, they hired the wrong actor from Stranger Things to play Johnny.
BabyLasagna
BabyLasagna - 8/10/2024, 12:58 AM
@RitoRevolto - I don't see any from that show as Johnny tbh, still hopes Joseph proves me wrong
MisterDoctor217
MisterDoctor217 - 8/10/2024, 1:21 AM
@BabyLasagna -

Dacre Montgomery would have been miles better tbh
Even tho I do think there are better options
RitoRevolto
RitoRevolto - 8/10/2024, 7:26 PM
@BabyLasagna - I'm hoping they all prove me wrong tbh.
RitoRevolto
RitoRevolto - 8/10/2024, 7:28 PM
@MisterDoctor217 - There definitely are, but from that show? I would've preferred Dacre. I can only assume he didn't audition. Or maybe Joseph is a better actor. I've only seen him in Quiet Place and Stranger Things.

Too much white on the suit! Come on the F4 should be one of the easiest costumes to adapt.

Maybe that suit will grow on me. But it was nice to get a message from the cast as they've started shooting.

Johnny looks pretty terrible, Reed is a complete miscast and they’re gonna have a female Silver Surfer.

Lots of time for this to turn out well, but initial impressions are rough.

McMurdo
McMurdo - 8/10/2024, 1:37 AM
@MuadDib - I really dig the retro suit with the white. If we can get rid of his damned moustache he would look solid as Reed and Ebon Moss will kill it as Ben I have zero doubts. He's arguably the best actor in the Bear.
