THE FANTASTIC FOUR Gets A Giant-Size Galactus Head Popcorn Bucket, Along With H.E.R.B.I.E., Fantasticar, More

Theater merchandise for The Fantastic Four: First Steps has been released, and it includes a huge Galactus popcorn bucket, along with impressive efforts based on H.E.R.B.I.E., the Fantasticar, and more...

We were hoping Marvel Studios would pull out all the stops with its theater merch for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and they haven't let us down.

The show-stopping piece is a giant-size Galactus popcorn bucket that's the biggest ever created at 20 inches wide and 17.5 inches tall. Theaters already charge a premium for items like this, so expect it to boast a similarly large price tag as well. 

H.E.R.B.I.E. is another fantastic (pun intended) piece, with the adorable robot set to hold both your popcorn and beverage. There's also a Fantasticar popcorn container and plenty of other goodies which, hopefully, will suit all budgets. 

Marvel Studios hasn't revealed Galactus in all his glory outside of promo art and toys, so it's a little surprising that our first "official" look at the villain comes in the form of a popcorn bucket. Regardless, it'll make one heck of a statement piece if you sit down in the theater with this thing. 

A new trailer was released earlier today alongside half a dozen posters for the long-awaited MCU reboot. 

You can see all The Fantastic Four: First Steps theater merch released so far in the X posts below.

Cinemablend recently spoke with The Fantastic Four: First Steps co-producer Grant Curtis and learned more about Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige's hopes for the MCU's take on Marvel's First Family.

"Kevin [Feige] more than anyone really wanted to continue to do those characters justice and put them on the Mount Rushmore of the MCU that they've never been on," he explained. "It goes back to what I just said. The only way you can do that is to take off any handcuffs.:

"That's also kind of what we all do for a living, is try to tell the biggest, coolest narrative possible on a fiscally responsible scale. And we've been able to do that," Curtis added.

Some new stills have also been released, with the focus more on the team's family dynamic than costumed action:

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. Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom is rumoured to appear, though that's surely a given with Avengers: Doomsday on the way.

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.

Everyone, resist the urge.

Boycott Fantastic Bore.

Boycott its merchandise.

We can and will win, and get a better, and less woke, and less stupid, and less woke MCU reboot.

Everyone boycott boycotting.

Also, you used “woke” twice in the same sentence.

MakeAmericaGrea - 6/4/2025, 11:52 AM
No, keep up the boycotts.

Disney+ is dead.

We kicked Heels Up Harris and Tim No Balz to the curb.

We kick Killary Clinton to the curb.

Target stock is down 30% from last year.

MSNBC viewership is plummeting.

Hollywood is falling apart.

President Donald John Trump's approval rating is up.

Craptain UnAmerican, No White, and Blunderdolts* bombed, and we can make Fantastic Bore: Last Steps bomb too.

Of course I used woke twice.

The MCU is very woke.

@MakeAmericaGrea - Boycott regurgitated buzzwords from the TACO administration.

Boycott archaic ideals and desperate shouting at the clouds.

Boycott MakeAmericaGrea.

We can and will get back to discussions about comic books and movies. Less ignorant and petulant whining about gender or racial politics.

There is plenty of older and better F4 merchandise, toys, cops, etc. out there, where Reed doesn't have a mustache, Silver Surfer doesn't have hair and breasts, etc.

You are in no position to be calling anyone dumb.

Silver Surfer isn't a White man.

He is a silver man.
