Exciting New ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Set Images Reveal The Presence of a Fan-Favorite Villain!

As a seasoned Marvel enthusiast with over two decades of comics and films under my belt, I must say that the casting for “Fantastic Four: First Steps” has me thoroughly intrigued! The rumors about Mole Man’s appearance are particularly exciting, as he was always one of my favorite villains from the early issues of Fantastic Four.

Title “Fantastic Four: Initial Strides” catches excitement among Marvel Cinematic Universe fans, with its scheduled premiere on July 25, 2025. Rumors from the filming location indicate that the production is shaping up quite well.

In this unique tale, the action unfolds within an altered universe where the Fantastic Four have already united as a team. This narrative will showcase some of their notorious adversaries.

In this production, Pedro Pascal takes on the character of Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby portrays Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn is Johnny Storm, while Ebon Moss-Bachrach, in an innovative approach, uses a combination of Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) and performance capture to bring Ben Grimm to life.

Julia Garner is set to portray Shalla-Bal, a character linked to the Silver Surfer within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, while Ralph Ineson will embody Galactus, one of Marvel’s formidable antagonists (based on individual perspectives). Paul Walter Hauser, John Malkovich, and Natasha Lyonne have been enlisted for undisclosed roles.

For ages now, I’ve been hearing whispers that Mole Man might show up in the upcoming film. The recent behind-the-scenes photos sure do look like they’re adding fuel to those rumors.
