On July 27, Marvel Studios will make its grand return to San Diego Comic-Con. And everyone thanks them, from fans to convention organizers who have benefited from the renewed public interest since the announcement.
While insiders from all walks of life are already taking advantage of this to jump into the breach and try to guess what will be shown or discussed, no official information has yet been released on the subject. As usual, because we always have to wait for the studio panel to be established.
But we can imagine that his next films will be discussed. Including Fantastic 4, which now has a cast.
Due in our theaters on July 23, 2025, Matt Shakman’s film seems to be on track for an event (his quartet reunited on the famous Hall H stage, even in the first photo of the cast in costume), and these banners are visible. People around the scene confirm this. What could be a great clue about a feature film.
Under the Fantastic Four logo, we can definitely see the foundation of the future, which in the comics connects the heroes to Spider-Man or Doctor Doom, their enemies. An organization founded by Reed Richards that aimed to bring together some of the brightest minds of its time to solve the problems of the future.
If they’re not around at the time of its creation, Spider-Man and Doctor Doom will eventually join the group, and the film could introduce a new super-team to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Going from there to Tom Holland’s Peter Parker being in the game, though, is a step that won’t be easy.
As the few visuals revealed so far suggest, Fantastic Four will take place in the 60s and parallel the world in which Iron Man and others have saved the world several times. Kevin Feige recently confirmed this, and it would help explain their absence when Loki and Thanos were a major threat to the planet.
A temporary problem?
Seeing Tom Holland alongside Pedro Pascal alongside Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach is difficult. As for Dr. Doom, who is still not officially accepted, despite what the scoopers are trying to believe, things look more doable, as it would be surprising if the character wasn’t more or less fleshed out.
Especially since he has what it takes to replace Loki, Thanos or Kang as the big bad of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (rumors even suggest that he could take the place of the character played by Jonathan Majors) and is central to the story. About Secret Wars, which will be the basis for the sixth film of the Avengers.
Maybe we’ll find out more at Comic-Con. Otherwise, it will be in July 2025. But, after a few false starts, a new version of Fantastic 4 looks set to hit the cinemas. And expanding the Marvel Cinematic Universe a little further.
