The Fantastic Four: First Steps Photo Shows Link to Thunderbolts*/New Avengers Post-Credit Scene, Fans Believe

by Layla May 25,2025

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

In the photo, both characters are clad in their iconic Fantastic Four spacesuits, which they only don during their space missions after acquiring their superpowers. The background features a door or airlock adorned with the Fantastic Four logo, indicating that this scene takes place later in the film, after the team has established themselves as superheroes. This moment has not been shown in any trailers released so far, adding an element of surprise and anticipation for fans.

Previous glimpses of The Fantastic Four have largely been set on Earth, focusing on the team's dynamics and the impending arrival of the skyscraper-sized villain, Galactus, coinciding with Reed Richards and Sue Storm's preparation for parenthood.
