Fans also enjoyed shots of the team in formal wear, with a fun twist in a dating game segment. Vanessa Kirby’s Sue Storm humorously presented her brother Johnny, played by Joseph Quinn, as "very single."
As the teaser neared its climax, the Fantastic Four appeared in striking blue and white space suits. They approached their rocket, gearing up for a momentous launch. Meanwhile, crowds donned in 1960s attire gathered to watch the event live. In a charming scene, kids clustered around electronics store windows, absorbing the spectacle.
