    In just over a month, Marvel’s First Family will be back on the big screen in The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

    Directed by Matt Shakman (WandaVision), The Fantastic Four: First Steps stars Pedro Pascal as the super-stretchy Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as the forcefield-wielding Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as the super strong Ben Grimm/The Thing, and Joseph Quinn as literal hothead Johnny Storm/The Human Torch.

    A new trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps highlights the Fantastic Four’s superpowers in all their glory, but the real focus here is on this iconic quartet as a family unit. The trailer showcases familial teasing between characters like Reed and Johnny, as well as a new look at Reed and Sue’s baby Franklin.

    Also present are flashes of The Fantastic Four: First Steps‘ dual bad guys: Silver Surfer (Julia Garner) and the planet-eating Galactus (Ralph Ineson). He’s marked Earth as the next dish in his interplanetary buffet, and it’s up to the Fantastic Four to save the world — as a family.

    If these stakes have you worried about the Fantastic Four’s survival, don’t be too alarmed (yet). All four members of the main cast are slated to star in Avengers: Doomsday. Plus, the end-credits scene of Thunderbolts* teased their arrival in the MCU from another dimension. Now, the biggest question The Fantastic Four: First Steps needs to answer is what led these heroes to leave their dimension in the first place.

    The Fantastic Four: First Steps hits theaters July 25.
