The Fantastic Four: First Steps Drops Final Trailer Ahead of July Release
The final trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps was released today, exactly one month before it's set to land in theatres. The trailer introduces fans to Marvel's First Family in a montage of hero introductions, in case fans couldn't tell which member is the Human Torch. The trailer showcases The Thing's inner lumberjack, complete with a rock beard and the Invisible Woman can be seen deploying powers outside of her usual invisibility. The action-packed trailer can be seen below.
The latest information fans were given regarding The Fantastic Four: First Steps, is an Empire interview with Director Matt Shakman, found initially by ComicBookMovie. In that interview, Shakman responded to a question relating to Robert Downey Jr.'s portrayal of Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday, confirming the next MCU arch-villain will not be present in the film. Shakman said 'Doom is not a part of my film, and therefore not a part of my purview.' Interestingly enough, this verbiage doesn't rule out post-credits scenes, and the MCU is known for big teasers after the credits roll.
Speaking of introductions, the previous trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps showed Galactus and his huge stature walking through the streets of the MCU version of New York City, in this trailer fans were given a better look at Galactus's harbinger, The Silver Surfer. Instead of The Silver Surfer donning the character's most commonly known iteration and identity of Norrin Radd, First Steps brings the character Shalla-bal on board as The Silver Surfer.
Shalla-bal was Introduced as Norrin Radd's love interest in Silver Surfer #1, and is portrayed by Julia Garner in the film. She's heard saying 'I herald, Galactus' in a chilling voice before the world eater is shown kicking a car down the same New York City street.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps launches globally on July 25, 2025, exclusively in theatres.

Nick Hogan speaks out to honor ‘greatest dad in the world' days after Hulk's death
Hulk Hogan's only son Nick has honored the wrestling legend in a heartfelt tribute in his first remarks since his father's sudden death. Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, died last Thursday after suffering a cardiac arrest at the age of 71. He is survived by Nick, 35, and estranged daughter Brooke, 37, whom he shared with his first ex-wife, Linda. 'This has been overwhelming and extremely difficult,' Nick wrote on Instagram on Saturday alongside a carousel of images of him and his father throughout the years. The first image featured the pair in matching red and yellow shirts when Nick was a young boy. 'Hearing so many kind words and stories about my dad's life, interactions and experiences with everyone has been incredible and comforting,' he added. Remembering Hogan as the 'most incredible person I've ever known' and his forever 'hero,' he called him the 'most kind, loving and amazing father anybody could ask for.' 'I feel so blessed to have had the greatest dad in the world,' Nick wrote. 'He was not only the best dad but also my mentor and my best friend. He always has been my best friend and I love him and miss him more than I could ever explain.' Nick Hogan said he had thanked his father 'for everything he has ever done for me and told him how much I loved him and hugged him every chance I got.' 'I spent a lot of time with him the past few years after moving back to Florida to be closer to him and I am so grateful for those memories. They are the best moments in my life,' he added. He continued: 'I would do anything to have him back but I know now that he will always be watching over me. I will always remember the lessons and advice he gave me and carry on in a way that I know would make him proud.' Hogan thanked his father for being 'the best dad in the world' and his 'best friend.' 'I love you so much Big Dog and I will miss you forever,' he wrote. The family of four — Hogan, Linda, Brooke, and Nick — starred in a reality TV series, Hogan Knows Best, which aired from 2005 to 2007. During the filming of the series, Nick was a burgeoning motorsports racer. But his career was cut short after he was involved in a devastating car crash in 2007. He was accused of driving under the influence of alcohol and spent several months in a Florida county jail. He remained close to his father over the years, even celebrating Hogan on Father's Day last month. 'Had a great Father's Day with the goat! Happy Father's Day to all the awesome dads!' he wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of himself as a child flexing with his father. Brooke, on the other hand, had experienced a falling out with both of her parents, revealing in March that she had 'completely separate reasons for going no contact' with both of them. 'I have been EXTREMELY verbally and mentally abused since childhood,' Brooke claimed on Instagram. 'Sadly, it would frequently turn physical. And sometimes it's not by the person you would assume, abuse comes in all shapes and sizes.' Linda vehemently denied Brooke's accusations, calling her daughter 'a narcissist just like her dad.' Meanwhile, Hogan said he had no idea why Brooke no longer spoke to him.

American musical satirist Tom Lehrer dies at 97, US media report
American musician and satirist Tom Lehrer has died at the age of 97, according to US media reports. Lehrer, a Harvard-trained mathematician, wrote darkly humorous songs, often with political connotations, that became popular in the 1950s and 1960s. Modern comedians such as Weird Al Yankovich said they have been influenced by Lehrer's work. His death was confirmed to the New York Times by David Herder, a friend. Born in Manhattan in 1928, Lehrer was a classically trained pianist. But despite his musical success, he spent most of his life pursuing academia. His teaching posts included spells at Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the University of California. 'I remember Ozzy missing a gig and it caused a riot' Brian Wilson obituary: Troubled genius who wrote most of The Beach Boys' hits He graduated early from the Loomis Chaffee School in Connecticut, according to the New York Times, and then went to Harvard, where he majored in mathematics and received his bachelor's degree in 1946 aged 18. He completed a masters there and also pursued a PHd at Columbia University, which he never completed. He began writing lyrics while at Harvard to entertain friends. Lehrer's most enduring songs include The Elements, a list of the chemical elements set to the tune of I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General from The Pirates of Penzance, Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera. Other fan favourites include The Masochism Tango, in which singer extols his beloved's violent passions with the lyrics, "I ache for the touch of your lips, dear / But much more for the touch of your whips, dear..." He was renowned for his darkly comic ballads, including the necrophiliac epic I Hold Your Hand in Mine, I Got It From Agnes - where he sang about the transmission of a venereal disease - and Poisoning Pigeons in the Park, which detailed the birds' apparent appetite for "peanuts coated with cyanide". In 1953 he released Songs by Tom Lehrer, a record that was sold through the post. It became a word of mouth success and sold an estimated half a million copies. The BBC banned most of Songs from the airwaves the following year. Following the success of the album, Lehrer began playing in nightclubs in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco, and at events for anti-war and left-wing groups. He wrote songs for the US edition of the satirical British show That Was the Week That Was, which were were made into an album in 1965. The highly controversial Vatican Rag, a Catholic hymn set in ragtime that mocked the Church, was featured among other songs that condemned nuclear weapons. He wrote for the 1970s educational children's show, The Electric Company, and in 1980 his songs enjoyed a revival when theatre producer Cameron Mackintosh staged the musical revue "Tomfoolery" featuring his work. He also taught maths and musical theatre courses at the University of California from 1972 to 2001, according to the New York Times. In 2020, Lehrer placed his song writing copyrights in the public domain, allowing anyone to perform, record or interpret his work for free. He also relinquished all rights to his recordings. In a statement on his website at the time, he wrote: "In short, I no longer retain any rights to any of my songs. So help yourselves, and don't send me any money." He also warned the website would be "shut down at some date in the not too distant future". The website was still live at the time of writing.
