"Fantastic Four Photo Hints at Thunderbolts/New Avengers Connection, Fans Speculate"

by Zoe May 25,2025

A new photo from The Fantastic Four: First Steps has surfaced, offering a glimpse into a scene that appears to be set late in the film and connects to the post-credit scene of Thunderbolts/New Avengers*. The image, shared on Instagram by Fandango, captures Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm in a futuristic setting, seemingly in a zero-gravity environment, as noted by Cinema Blend.

In the photo, both characters are seen donning their iconic Fantastic Four-branded spacesuits, which they only obtain after their initial space journey where they acquire their superpowers. Additionally, a Fantastic Four logo is visible on what looks like a door or airlock in the background.

This image suggests that it is taken from a later part of the movie, after the Fantastic Four have established themselves as heroes. Interestingly, this scene has not been featured in any of the trailers released so far. The trailers have primarily showcased scenes set on Earth, focusing on the team's dynamics, particularly as Reed Richards and Sue Storm prepare for parenthood amidst the looming threat of the skyscraper-sized Galactus.
