Marvel has officially confirmed the rumoured casting of Fantastic Four stars.

Marvel Studios’ main social media channels shared a Valentine’s Day post showing Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach in their superhero outfits.

The Instagram photo showed the quartet relaxing on blue sofas in a lounge room, with a Happy Valentine’s Day banner hanging from the ceiling.

It also includes an alleged Easter Egg that hinted at the film’s potential timeframe. In the shot, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who will play Ben Grimm/The Thing, is seen reading an issue of Life Magazine from December 1963.

The film is slated to be released on July 25, 2025, and stars Pascal as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Kirby as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm/Human Torch, and Ebon as Ben Grimm/The Thing.

Marvel’s Kevin Feige first revealed the Fantastic Four at San Diego Comic-Con in July 2022. It was previously scheduled for release later this year.

Matt Shakman, the director of WandaVision, was chosen to helm the picture, while Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer authored the screenplay, which was later rewritten by Josh Friedman.
