A newly released photo from The Fantastic Four: First Steps hints at a pivotal scene that ties into the post-credit sequence from Thunderbolts/New Avengers*. Shared on Instagram by Fandango, the image captures Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards and Joseph Quinn's Johnny Storm in a futuristic, zero-gravity setting, as noted by Cinema Blend.

Eagle-eyed fans have observed that both characters are donning their iconic Fantastic Four spacesuits, which they acquire post their transformative journey into space where they gain their superpowers. Additionally, a Fantastic Four logo is visible on what seems to be a door or airlock in the background.

PlayThis image suggests a moment from later in the film, after the Fantastic Four have established themselves as heroes. Interestingly, this scene has not been featured in any of the trailers released so far.

To date, the glimpses we've had of The Fantastic Four have been set on Earth, focusing on the team's dynamics as Reed Richards and Sue Storm prepare for parenthood, all while facing the impending threat of the skyscraper-sized Galactus.
