The first teaser trailer for the Fantastic Four reboot has arrived! The superhero movie stars Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan and Jamie Bell as the titular quartet and is directed by Josh Trank (Chronicle).

Earlier this week Trank and screenwriter Simon Kinberg spoke about the movie, revealing a few unexpected details to Collider. The most surprising of the bunch? Trank's biggest influence on the way he made Fantastic Four wasn't a comic line or another brand of superhero movie; it was the dense, difficult sci-fi of director David Cronenberg (The Fly).

"I would say that the science fiction of it is a big thing that sets it apart from most of the other superhero genre films. I’m a huge David Cronenberg fan, and I always viewed Fantastic Four and the kind of weirdness that happens to these characters and how they’re transformed to really fall in line more with a Cronenberg-ian science fiction tale of something horrible happening to your body and [it] transforming out of control. And the potential for a hard sci-fi take on that material makes me really excited."

As far as this first teaser goes, it feels reminiscent of the way Dawn of the Planet of the Apes seemed to shy away from big, epic trailer shots and instead opted to focus on characters and atmosphere. In addition to the teaser trailer, check out the first poster below. The Marvel comic book adaptation arrives in theaters August 7, 2015.
