The first trailer for “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” finally landed on Tuesday morning and fans seem to generally agree that it’s, well, fantastic.

In the footage, we finally get a proper look at Marvel’s first family: Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). They’re currently navigating life after a journey into space that left them forever changed, as Richards explains.

But Sue is quick to comfort him, noting that Ben — who, of course, turns into The Thing — “has always been a rock,” her brother Johnny is always Johnny, and that she isn’t going anywhere. Together, they’ll face whatever’s coming “as a family.”

For the most part, the teaser did its job in getting fans excited, with many feeling hopeful that after multiple attempts to bring the Fantastic Four to screen, the MCU iteration would finally get it right.

“They really did it. Marvel’s first family is here and they look PERFECT,” one person wrote. “From the looks of the characters, the visuals, the music. I genuinely love all of it so far. After all this time, the Fantastic 4 are given their long overdue justice.”

“The FANTASTIC 4 really feels like the first time in a while Marvel is going all out for something,” another said. “I love the retro-futuristic aesthetic and how big the movie feels.”

In the hours following the release, GIFs of each team member using their powers flooded social media (though the updated look of The Thing did split some folks). One thing we didn’t get, though, was a look at Reed Richards using his own powers. And viewers definitely noticed.

“Not much to go by but we got to see everyone’s powers EXCEPT Reed Richards,” one fan pointed out. “I wonder why?”

Overwhelmingly still, the most hype came for Ralph Ineson’s Galactus. Though we don’t see his face, we definitely see his body — and his shadow, ready to devour Earth.

“GALACTUS LOOKS SO IMPOSING I’VE WAITED MY ENTIRE LIFE FOR THIS,” one fan wrote in all caps.
