Pedro Pascal posted the first cast photo of Marvel’s next superhero team.
The actor revealed the first behind-the-scenes image of the core Fantastic Four cast, along with the message “our first mission.”
Fantastic Four stars Pascal as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm/The Thing. Julia Garner is playing The Silver Surfer, while Paul Walter Hauser is among the cast in an undisclosed role.
Fantastic Four has a release date of July 25, 2025 and hails from WandaVision director Matt Shakman, helming from a script by Eric Pearson, Josh Friedman, Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer. WandaVision‘s Peter Cameron has also worked on the script.
Fantastic Four is a cornerstone property for Marvel. Writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby introduced the team with 1961’s Fantastic Four No. 1, a comic that launched the Marvel Universe that would grow to include an interconnected New York featuring various comic book heroes, such as Spider-Man and Daredevil. It previously was adapted for a pair of Tim Story-directed features in the 2000s, as well as Josh Trank’s disastrous 2015 movie. Roger Corman produced a B-movie version that was never released in the 1990s.
