Six years ago, Avengers: Endgame broke the internet—literally. AMC and Alamo Drafthouse’s sites crashed as millions rushed for tickets, while Odeon, Cineworld, and Fandango struggled to keep up. Now, in 2025, The Fantastic Four: First Steps is triggering déjà vu. Matt Shakman’s retro 1960s take on Marvel’s first family has fans swarming ticket sites again, causing the same digital mayhem. It is official: Marvel does not just break box office records—it breaks websites, too.

The film looks like a secret romance between vintage NASA reels and classic pulp covers. Miniature ships drift through glowing starfields, soaked in warm nostalgia. As Empire reports, Marvel ditches CGI excess for handcrafted charm—real sets, analog controls, and Cold War tech that hums with authenticity. This is not sleek futurism; it is a love letter to a time when space was a dream, not a destination. Marvel trades spectacle for soul—and it absolutely shows.

In this alternate vision, Marvel’s First Family are not a caped crusaders but iconic astronauts of a golden age. Reed Richards crunches cosmic math by hand, while Susan Storm charts nebulae with elegant precision. Johnny Storm, all swagger and speed, flies like danger is a game, and Benjamin Grimm embodies grit as a fearless test pilot. Their transformation is born not from chaos, but wonder, back when science was hope. And the boldest twist? No cameos, no multiverse—just them. As tickets drop, Marvel unveils new Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer and posters.

With ticket demand soaring, Marvel Studios just turned up the heat for The Fantastic Four: First Steps as they dropped a fresh trailer and exclusive posters to fuel the frenzy.

Marvel’s latest Fantastic Four: First Steps campaign dives deep into retro vibes, with hand-drawn posters released across formats like IMAX, 4DX, and RealD 3D. A striking new blue poster showcases Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Johnny Storm, Ben Grimm, H.E.R.B.I.E., the Baxter Building, and the iconic Fantasti-car. The new trailer expands the world, revealing a futuristic, vintage-style New York and thrilling scenes of the team soaring through the skies, plus fresh chemistry between Johnny Storm and Reed Richards.

Before the new trailer, Franklin Richards only appeared in Fantastic Four: First Steps Funko merch, making this his live-action debut. The trailer hints at his mysterious powers but leaves much to discover. It also celebrates the tight bond of Marvel’s First Family while teasing the looming threat of Galactus targeting Earth. Adding to the buzz, a Fantastic Four star compared the movie to Black Panther and Guardians of the Galaxy. Now, with tickets live, fans are crashing sites just to be first in line for this Marvel event.
