THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS Villain Giganto Revealed in… a Little Caesar's Commercial? — GeekTyrant
Well, this is a first. Marvel fans just got their first look at The Fantastic Four: First Steps ' surprise villain and it came in the form of a Little Caesar's ad. While a pizza employee raves about their latest deal, they're suddenly interrupted by none other than Giganto, an oversized, monstrous creature straight out of early Marvel canon. Giganto isn't exactly a household name like Doom or Galactus, but longtime readers will recognize the beast immediately. The monster made his debut all the way back in Fantastic Four #1 in 1961, part of a group of mutated Deviant creations. He's most often associated with Mole Man, the first major villain the Fantastic Four ever faced. While Mole Man hasn't been officially confirmed for the movie, the appearance of Giganto definitely points in that direction, and fans are already speculating that this is Marvel laying the groundwork. For a promo spot tied to cheap pizza, it's surprisingly rich in Marvel lore. Giganto towering over a crumbling city while the cashier continues hyping stuffed crust? It's peak MCU marketing weirdness. 'Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces Marvel's First Family—Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm/Human Torch and Ben Grimm/The Thing as they face their most daunting challenge yet.' Produced by Kevin Feige, with executive producers Louis D'Esposito, Grant Curtis, and Tim Lewis, First Steps is shaping up to be a true throwback to the roots of Marvel storytelling, complete with Deviant monsters and atomic-age design. The score comes from Michael Giacchino, and fans can expect something big, bold, and maybe definitly strange from this movie. The Fantastic Four: First Steps opens in theaters on July 25, 2025. The cast include Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who will all return in Avengers: Doomsday , hitting theaters in December 2026. But for now, the spotlight belongs to Giganto… and apparently, pizza.

Our First Look at Giganto in ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps' Is in… a Pizza Ad?
Ahead of the release of Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps, the accompanying food tie-in blitz unleashes a first look at the movie's take on Giganto in a Little Caesars pizza ad. Currently, the chain is pushing its themed pizza with toppings (or lack thereof) representing different members of the Fantastic Four. Getting a cute little comic book nod in this ad was unexpected, to say the least. Giganto's first appearance came in Marvel's First Family comic book debut, which gets homaged in the commercial (directed by First Steps production designer Kasra Farahani) in a recreation of Jack Kirby's monster battle. Watch the spot below: After that first comic, the kaiju-esque green giant from Monster Isle went on to become a recurring villain in the Marvel comics canon. Fans have been waiting to see if Giganto will make the cut in First Steps—and his appearance in the pizza ad offers hope that he might, though we can't help but think he's seen better days in 2D. But maybe if he's really set to pop up in the film, this version of the iconic creature might not be fully rendered and finalized. It's an ad after all, who really notices? (We do.) The Fantastic Four: First Steps opens July 25.

New Teaser Of Fantastic Four: First Steps Shows Mole Man's Monster Giganto In Action
Last Updated: Fans got a first glimpse of Giganto, a giant green monster controlled by Mole Man, from Fantastic Four: First Steps, in a new Little Caesars commercial. Fantastic Four: First Steps is generating much buzz among the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) fans, who are excited to watch it in theatres. The studio has promised the film will stay true to the original story from the comics. Recently, they showed how they carefully recreated the very first cover of the 1961 Fantastic Four comic. Fans got the first glimpse of Giganto, a giant green monster controlled by Mole Man, in a new Little Caesars commercial. The monster looks just like it did in the comic created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby years ago. The ad features a worker talking about their pizza when he suddenly gets attacked by the giant monster. Soon after, we see Sue Storm, Mister Fantastic, Human Torch and Ben Grimm coming to the rescue. While the clip looks fun, it may actually be taken from the upcoming movie and edited for the pizza promotion. For months, fans have been hearing that First Steps might show flashbacks of the team's earlier fights and this could be one of those scenes. Just a sneak peek of the BIG things coming to the screen soon 👀See Marvel Studios' #TheFantasticFour: First Steps in theaters July 25 — Little Caesars Pizza (@littlecaesars) June 17, 2025 In the comics, Giganto is controlled by Mole Man, who uses him to attack different locations. When the Fantastic Four find out, Mole Man sends the giant monster after them in New York City. In Fantastic Four: First Steps, actor Paul Walter Hauser is expected to play Mole Man. He has shared positive comments about his time on set. While appearing on Sirius XM earlier this year, Paul said, 'I think, from what I've seen, and obviously, I can't say much about it, but I will say the short time I was on set, dude, they're making a cool movie, man. This is a smart, chic Marvel movie that really focuses on family as part of the theme. And you really kind of fall in love with those characters, I think. And that's what's missing sometimes if you don't fall in love with these characters, and you keep putting them in peril, we don't really care. You know, you got to make us care first. And I think Marvel's hopefully getting back to some of that."
