Sun Apr 27 14:30:00 UTC 2025: ## Fantastic Four’s Role in ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Confirmed, New Trailer a Hit
**Los Angeles, CA** – The internet is buzzing after the release of the *Fantastic Four: First Steps* trailer, which has garnered over 16 million views and 440,000 likes on YouTube. The trailer, showcasing Julia Garner as Silver Surfer and Pedro Pascal as Mister Fantastic, has received overwhelmingly positive feedback, with minor criticism focused solely on The Thing’s voice.
The excitement surrounding the *Fantastic Four* franchise intensified with Marvel’s surprise announcement of the *Avengers: Doomsday* cast. A five-hour livestream revealed a star-studded lineup, confirming the Fantastic Four’s “key roles” in the upcoming Avengers film. This announcement followed a press release celebrating the cast reveal and highlighting the Fantastic Four’s involvement in both *Doomsday* and *Thunderbolts*.
The *Avengers: Doomsday* cast includes notable names such as Patrick Stewart as Professor X, Letitia Wright as Black Panther, Pedro Pascal reprising his role as Reed Richards, and Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. The inclusion of the Fantastic Four, whose arch-nemesis, Doctor Doom, is the main antagonist in both *Thunderbolts* and *Fantastic Four: First Steps*, comes as no surprise, but assures fans of their significant presence, exceeding a simple cameo appearance.
*Fantastic Four: First Steps* is set for release on July 25th, followed by *Thunderbolts* on May 2nd. *Avengers: Doomsday*’s release date is yet to be announced.
