Marvel denies AI involvement in "Fantastic Four: First Steps" poster creation, despite fan speculation. The marketing campaign launched this week with a trailer teaser and several social media posters. One poster, however, sparked debate due to a seemingly four-fingered man.
Fans pointed to potential AI-generated elements: duplicated faces, inconsistent gaze direction, and oddly proportioned limbs. A Disney/Marvel spokesperson, however, refuted AI use. The four-fingered anomaly remains unexplained, with theories ranging from a finger hidden behind a flagpole (deemed improbable) to simple post-production errors or inadequate Photoshop skills. Repeated faces could also be a result of common background actor duplication techniques rather than AI.
