August 7th, the release date for Fantastic Four, just became a hugely anticipated day for movie-goers as the first official trailer for the reboot sweeps through the internet and leaves jaws on the floor. The latest iteration of Marvel’s ragtag group of genetically modified superheroes will be directed by Josh Trank, who is responsible for one of the best ‘found footage’ films of all time, Chronicle.
The trailer is soundtracked by a ponderous Reg E. Cathey, as Dr. Franklin Storm, who muses on humankind’s immeasurable desire to discover, invent, and build. It’s to this monologue that we see the action unfolding, and Mister Fantastic (Miles Teller), Invisible Woman (Kate Mara), The Thing (Jamie Bell), and Human Torch (Jamie Bell) all reveal themselves as they prepare to launch into space.
Watch the brilliant trailer below:
Fantastic Four is scheduled to be released in cinemas worldwide on August 7th, 2015
