In the video, Mr. Fantastic (Pedro Pascal) hosts a science show called Fantastic Science. We see the crew in a jet engine explosion, as well as Richards and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) prepping for space travel.
They are seen as celebrities and even have there are flying cars and see them lifting off into space. At the end, we see a Galactus eye peer through a window. This movie was officially teased back in 2022 during Marvel’s Hall H presentation with simply the logo at the end of the panel.
Galactus will be voiced by Ralph Ineson, and Silver Surfer will be played by The Ozarks star Julia Garner. Actor John Malkovich will also star, in an unannounced role.
