List of all known, suspected, and alleged antagonists found in “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”

This version aims to maintain the same meaning while using simpler language that is easier for readers to understand.

Galactus (Confirmed)

In the movie “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” a cosmic being named Galactus, who lives by consuming entire planets to sustain himself, will initially be represented by his herald, the Silver Surfer. The Silver Surfer’s mission is to scout for suitable planets on which Galactus can feed. There’s a strong possibility that our giant cosmic entity could ultimately consume the planet depicted in the film by its conclusion.

As Galactus is far too big for any actor to depict physically, audiences will primarily listen to his voice, which is supplied by Ralph Ineson.

Red Ghost (Reported)

In the film, it’s still under wraps which character John Malkovich will portray. Nevertheless, there’s plenty of buzz suggesting he might take on the role of Red Ghost, also known as Ivan Kragoff – one of the rumored antagonists for the Fantastic Four. As depicted in the original comics, Ivan is a Russian scientist with a fascination for Cosmic Rays. His true intention, however, was to reenact the incident that bestowed powers upon the Fantastic Four.

Mole Man (Reported)

Just like Malkovich’s character, Paul Walter Hauser’s role remains a secret. As reported by The InSneider, Hauser is set to portray Harvey Rupert Elder, also known as the Mole Man, who will be defeated in the film’s initial scenes by the heroes.

In the initial run of the Fantastic Four comic books, the antagonist known as Mole Man aims to dominate Earth’s surface. A sneak peek from the movie set additionally hinted at his upcoming appearance.

Doctor Doom (Rumor)

According to the news we’ve been anticipating, I’m thrilled to share that I, as a fan, will see Robert Downey Jr. embody the enigmatic character, Doctor Doom, in Avengers: Doomsday. This alternate world he hails from – Earth-616’s counterpart – echoes the intriguing setting of The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

As reported by Daniel Rictman on X (previously Twitter), there’s a rumor that Doctor Doom might make an appearance in the post-credits scene of the upcoming film. Contrary to this, The Cosmic Circus claims that Doctor Doom and his intellectual equal, Reed Richards, will not have any interactions within the movie, as per Bounding Into Comics.

A Cosmic Threat

In the preview for Fantastic Four: First Steps, the protagonists notice a celestial danger looming in the sky, as if the very heavens were ablaze with fire. This menace might be linked to the arrival of Galactus or the Silver Surfer.
