Latest THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS Set Photos Reveal Closer Look At Joseph Quinn's Johnny Storm Wig

The Fantastic Four: First Steps is still shooting in Spain and while there's not too much to talk about in these latest set photos, we do get a closer look at the wig actor Joseph Quinn is wearing to play Johnny Storm, a.k.a. the MCU's Human Torch.

For those of you who might not be aware, the Gladiator II star has a buzzcut and has opted to wear a wig to play the blonde-haired Johnny. It's a convincing effort and vastly better than what poor Kate Mara had to wear for Fantastic Four's reshoots in 2015.

Vanessa Kirby and Ebon Moss-Bachrach were also spotted arriving on set from afar and see the former wearing 1960s-style clothing and rocking a hairstyle that would make Jack Kirby proud. 

Both Pedro Pascal and Quinn made a point of stopping to meet children from a local school and even signed their banner, making this an unforgettable day for a group of kids likely already blown away by Marvel's First Family visiting their home. 

"He's an inherently funny man," Quinn previously said of Moss-Bachrach when asked about Johnny's dynamic with Ben Grimm in the movie. "I think he's amazing, and will definitely bring something very unique to his role; the dynamic is the thing that is the most important aspect of these four characters."

"I couldn't think of another three actors that could being as much vigor and life to these other characters, and I'll do my best to do the same."

Check out these new The Fantastic Four: First Steps set photos in the X posts below. 

Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces Marvel’s First Family—Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn) and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they face their most daunting challenge yet.

Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). And if Galactus’ plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren’t bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal.

Paul Walter Hauser, John Malkovich, and Natasha Lyonne have been cast in mystery roles. 

Director Matt Shakman worked with both Avatar: The Way of Water co-writer Josh Friedman and WandaVision's Cam Squires on The Fantastic Four: First Steps' screenplay, with Eric Pearson (Black Widow) later coming on board for a final polish.

The movie is set to be released in theaters on July 25, 2025.

@MarvelZombie616 - Accurate to which comic? Other than being a blonde lady, I don't think there's much resemblance.

It was pretty cool of Pedro & Joseph to come out and interact with the kids!!.

Also the wig does look nice imo , I was a bit worried about it initially but this has assuaged my concerns.

For people that are unaware , The reason he had to wear a wig is because he had a buzz cut for a movie that he was doing for Alex Garland which is a war film that he finished shooting immediately before starting FF.

Anyway , can’t wait to see him in the role and hope we get his friendship with Holland’s Peter in the near future!!.

@TheVisionary25 - After DD, the next MCU hero to show up in a Spider-man movie should be Johnny imo. I'm looking forward to their dynamic

@GiverOfInfo - yeah, its so f*** lame, lazy and annoying. Director/Pedro just didnt put any effort to look closer to the character, and he looks almost the same in most roles. Where is the diversity?

Women have to change constantly for each movie, while men are this lazy.
No excuses accepted here. sorry. (and Im not even a F4 fan, but stuff like this annoys me a lot, about this industry)

@dragon316 - You’re right, I remember in X-Men Origins Wolverine when Logan’s sideburns were 1/8 inch too long. Really took me out of the movie.

@GameOn - LOLOLOLOL. I would prefer it if he shaved the mustache or grow a whole beard, but if that’s gonna be my only complaint about the movie, I can live with it. I would prefer if Superman‘s outfit didn’t have the lines on it that looks something from the New 52, but if James Gunn brings a Superman with heart and delivers on the other important things, I’ll totally get over the lines on the costume.

That Twitter video makes Pascal look short. He looks tall in "The Last of Us." His height doesn't bother me personally. Nor do I know his height. Just an observation.

@JayLemle - pedro pascal is 1 foot shorter to reed richards in comics reed in books is 6/1 pedro is 5/11 same situation with don cheadle Jim Rohdes.,

That’s 2 inches shorter if you have the correct heights for them, not one foot .

I like this wig, it makes his hair look naturally blonde. I always hate in movies when actors get dye jobs or wear bad wigs and they don’t look like real people. Blonde can look so fake, but this is not bad imo

It's amazing how far wig technology has advanced in recent years. I can remember when everyone still had analog wigs. Then came digital wigs, and then hi-def wigs, super hi-def wigs, 3D wigs, 4D wigs, virtual wigs, augmented wigs, and now this. I mean, it's so lifelike you would never know the difference. Pretty soon, wigs will be able to think and act for themselves.

But... if that's the case, then what stops the wigs from deciding that they no longer need humans to survive and that we are nothing more than a bald plague upon the Earth. And then they rise up! And then they bring the Wig-pocalpyse upon us! And then... and then... and then...

Never mind, I was thinking of something else. Carry on.

It's a good wig. Although that might also be because I'm comparing it to GladIIator's in my head. Quinn was amazing in that, but the wig was distracting.

I’m sorry but when i look at the two of them, I do not see Reed and Johnny. Two very bad casting choices along with Ruth as Silver Surfer and RDJ as Doom
