Despite overwhelming appreciation for “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” among Marvel fans, there appears to be dissatisfaction concerning several scenes that were removed from the film. While many are praising the plot, they have noticed that certain sequences featured in the trailer but omitted from the movie have left them wanting more. Released on July 25, 2025, and directed by Matt Shakman, The Fantastic Four: First Steps has been gracing theater screens.
Fans are complaining about Fantastic Four’s many deleted scenes
Fans of Marvel are flooding social media platforms, voicing their displeasure over certain scenes from the trailers of “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” that were removed in the film’s final version.
Prior to the movie’s premiere, director Matt Shakman disclosed that all scenes involving John Malkovich as the Red Ghost were removed from the final version of the film. Notably, one scene that was eliminated from the movie is where Reed Richards and Sue Storm guide a visitor through the Baxter building.
In the trailer, there were scenes that didn’t appear in the actual movie. For example, a line where Reed says “I stretched the limits of space, and they heard,” was missing from the film. Fans have noticed this inconsistency and are expressing their concerns about the edits.
The user expressed on X (previously known as Twitter), “Contemplating the numerous sequences from the trailers that didn’t make it to the final cut, I believe Fantastic Four could have benefited from an additional 20-30 minutes. Despite the film’s excellent pace and my enjoyment of it, there were some scenes I was eagerly anticipating that unfortunately didn’t feature in the final product.
Reflecting on the numerous moments from the previews that didn’t end up in the final film, it seems to me that Fantastic Four could have benefited from an additional 20-30 minutes. The rhythm of the movie was well-balanced, and I thoroughly enjoyed it as it stands, but there were certain sequences I had eagerly anticipated that unfortunately didn’t make the final cut.
