The first teaser for
The Fantastic Four
: First Steps has finally arrived, and fans of
The Bear
couldn’t help but notice a familiar face and in an unexpected setting.
Ebon Moss-Bachrach, best known for his role as Richie in The Bear, is introduced as
Ben Grimm
, a.k.a. The Thing. Interestingly, while his face remained hidden under heaps of make-up and CGI, the internet found a hilarious way to identify him. In a now viral clip from the trailer, he dips his finger in a sauce to taste it to make sure it was perfect. The moment has prompted fans to enthusiastically respond, "Yes, Chef!" on social media, drawing parallels between his award-winning role in The Bear.
Taking to twitter, fans posted their hilarious reactions to the sauce tasting scene saying, "You can’t keep Ebon Moss-Bachrach out of a kitchen."
Another shared pictures of the actor in the hit series and his new superhero movie and quipped, "these are literally the same picture of ebon moss-bachrach."
See how the others reacted:
The
Fantastic Four teaser
seemingly skips the team’s origin story, much like Spider-Man: Homecoming, and drops viewers into the action when the Fantastic Four have already acquired their powers. The setting hints at a drastically different MCU, one that not only takes place in a different time but possibly in a different universe. Instead of the familiar Avengers Tower, this version of New York City features the Baxter Building, the iconic home of the Fantastic Four.
In addition to Moss-Bachrach’s Ben Grimm, the teaser introduces the rest of Marvel’s First Family: Pedro Pascal as
Reed Richards
, a.k.a. Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as
Sue Storm
, a.k.a. Invisible Woman, and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, a.k.a.
Human Torch
.
The film's release date set is for July 25.
