The upcoming Fantastic Four film will be released on July 25, 2025. The film is set in 1960s New York, but Feige hinted that it may not be the New York fans are used to. "There was another piece of art we released with Johnny Storm flying in the air making a 4 symbol, and there was a cityscape in the corner of that image," Feige stated on The Official Marvel Podcast.

“There were a lot of smart people who noticed that that cityscape didn’t look exactly like the New York that we know, or the New York that existed in the ‘60s in our world. Those are smart observations, I’ll say," he added.

The film will feature Galactus, a character who previously appeared in the 2007 film Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Galactus, known for consuming planets to maintain his life force, is a formidable foe of the Fantastic Four. He is often accompanied by his herald, the Silver Surfer.
