Update: I must quote a reader who notes: “to me it looks like an AI trailer where someone typed in “fantastic four, retro future, wes anderson vibe”. I think this is exactly right, a perfectly succinct way to describe what feels so off about the trailer.

The first trailer for Marvel Studios' "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" has arrived. Stars of the film, including Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach, helped debut the highly anticipated trailer in epic fashion, live from the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama, in front of a Saturn V rocket.
