The Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer provided a glimpse of MCU’s most-awaited villain Galactus. However, many fans were perplexed by his size change. He is a larger-than-life cosmic being, wielding the power to consume planets for his survival. But in the trailer, he appears smaller and does not have his huge form, which has left some fans confused.
So, let’s find out why Galactus is small in the Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer.
Here’s why Galactus is so small in The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ trailer
Galactus tends to switch his sizes, per the comics, which could be one of the possible reasons for him appearing small. One theory also indicates that he initially might seem small but will grow gradually as he becomes stronger.
Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer features the main heroes preparing to save the earth from the planet-devouring being, Galactus. The first look showcases a comic-inspired Galactus, setting his eye on New York City in the 1960s, where the film is originally taking place. While fans were happy that the MCU is focusing more on bringing comic-book accuracy to the narrative, many are interested to know why it altered Galactus’ size.
For the unversed, Galactus is a cosmic creature who wields the ability to modify its size and appearance at his own will. The clip provides two looks of Galactus, with his size being different in both.
The first shot sees his shadow, covering the city, marking the arrival of the danger. In the next, he appears to be somewhat bigger than the Statue of Liberty, showcasing size discrepancy. These particular shots indicate that he could modify his appearance at his convenience to appear stronger and potentially swallow the whole city.
