Fantastic Four - Pedro Pascal titles "first mission"
## The "Fantastic Four" of the Marvel Cinematic Universe are united.
Pedro Pascal (49) shared on Instagram the first cast photo of "Fantastic Four." The "The Last of Us" star poses on it with his three colleagues of the upcoming superhero spectacle. Vanessa Kirby (36, "Napoleon") embraces him, next to him are smiling Ebon Moss-Bachrach (47) and Joseph Quinn (30). "Our first mission" is what Pedro Pascal wrote next to the picture. Additionally, he posted a photo of director Matt Shakman (48).
These actors form the Fantastic Four
Pedro Pascal portrays Reed Richards, alias Mister Fantastic, in "Fantastic Four." Vanessa Kirby plays his partner Sue Storm, also known as the Invisible Woman. "The Bear" star Ebon Moss-Bachrach will transform into The Thing. "Stranger Things" actor Joseph Quinn, who worked with Pedro Pascal on "Gladiator II," plays Johnny Storm, a.k.a. the Human Torch.
"Fantastic Four" is part of the sixth phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The release date is scheduled for July 25, 2025. The film is set to take place in an alternate New York in the 1960s.
Has Marvel had success with the "Fantastic Four" this time?
Pedro Pascal's caption "Our first mission" suggests that it's not just an adventure of the "Fantastic Four" this time. However, this will likely depend on the film's box office performance.
The 2025 film is already the third attempt to establish the 1961 comic series permanently on the big screen. In 2005, the first adaptation featured Chris Evans (43) and Jessica Alba (43). Despite poor reviews, the film was a success, which led to a sequel, "Rise of the Silver Surfer," in 2007. However, it ended there.
In 2015, a "Fantastic Four" reboot with Miles Teller (37) was released. However, this time the film bombed both critically and at the box office.
