The MCUs next major villain has been teased by their actor, and the comic-accurate design is blowing us away.
Marvel is seemingly on a roll with its live-action villains, as in the coming months we’ll see the planet-devouring Galactus and Doctor Doom enter the MCU, though it’s unknown what wider role Galactus will play in future stories.
First we’ve got a few films left to cover, like Captain America: New World Order which you can see below

Galactus will appear in the Fantastic Four: First Steps films and will be played by Ralph Ineson. The film will follow the newly superpowered family as they come to terms with their abilities and become the heroes they were meant to be.
It’s a bit of a trial by fire though to have Galactus be the villain, and it’ll be interesting to see how they fare against the titan.
While we’ve seen a glimpse of the villain in the teaser trailer we’ve been given a closer look at his design through a gift presented to Ralph Ineson when the film wrapped filming.
The star shared it on social media, and it’s none other than a bottle opener in the shape of Galactus’ head.
While there’s no colour on it we can see the studio has gone with a comic accurate appearance, with the horns on the helmet that we’ve seen in previous media.
In fact, it was said Kevin Feige showed footage of Galactus from the Marvel and Fortnite crossover event and asked for it to be used as a reference point for the character’s design.
We don’t know much else about Fantastic Four: First Steps, only that it’ll tie into the wider MCU story that’ll unfold in Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, with Marvel’s first family presumably finding a new home in the 616 universe.
