A newly released photo from "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" appears to depict a pivotal moment from the film’s later act, potentially linking to the post-credits scene of "Thunderbolts*/New Avengers."
Shared on Instagram by Fandango, the image showcases Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm in a futuristic, zero-gravity environment, as noted by Cinema Blend.
Observant fans have highlighted that both characters are outfitted in their Fantastic Four-branded spacesuits—gear they only obtain after their initial space mission, where they acquire their superhuman abilities. In the background, a Fantastic Four emblem is visible on what seems to be a door or airlock.
This suggests the scene takes place after the Fantastic Four have become established heroes. It also seems to feature a sequence not yet shown in any trailers.
So far, most glimpses of "The Fantastic Four" have been Earth-based, focusing on Reed Richards and Sue Storm preparing for parenthood just as the colossal Galactus arrives.
