With The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Marvel's First Family finally arrives in the MCU. But does their MCU debut follow in the franchise's tradition of including mid-credits and end-credits scenes?
The MCU's other 2025 film offerings have been somewhat inconsistent with their post-credits scenes. Captain America: Brave New World skipped a mid-credits scene entirely, instead offering up a vague end-credits scene that felt like the product of a rushed rewrite and reshoot. Elsewhere, Thunderbolts delivered a more satisfying look at what's to come from Marvel, teasing the New Avengers and the arrival of the Fantastic Four in their dimension.
Is there more Pedro Pascal in the post-credits of The Fantastic Four: First Steps?
Luckily for MCU fans, The Fantastic Four: First Steps follows in Thunderbolts footsteps as opposed to Captain America: Brave New World. The film features both a mid-credits scene and an end-credits scene, so get ready to stay in the theater even after Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), and Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn) wrap up their adventures.
No spoilers, but the mid-credits scene offers a major tease of the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, while the end-credits scene pays off a fun gag from the rest of the film, with a bit of nostalgia thrown in for good measure. Only one member of the film's Fantastic Four actually shows up in these scenes, but no spoilers yet on who it is. For that, you'll have to watch through the credits, which also offer the opportunity to appreciate the gargantuan crew that brought The Fantastic Four: First Steps to life.
