Fans erupt with memes as RUMOR claims ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ has a post-credit scene linked to ‘Avengers: Doomsday’

The Marvel rumor mill is working overtime. The latest buzz? A claim that Fantastic Four: First Steps will have two post-credit scenes one of which supposedly connects directly to Avengers: Doomsday. If true, this could mean Marvel is setting up something massive, and, of course, the internet is losing its collective mind.

But before anyone gets too excited (or too mad), let’s remember this is just a rumor. There’s no official confirmation from Marvel or anyone involved. Still, that hasn't stopped fans from going full detective mode, digging for clues, and, most importantly, reacting with absolutely hilarious memes.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps Post-Credit Scene Rumor Blows Up

It all started when a post surfaced online claiming that Fantastic Four: First Steps will feature two post-credit scenes. The first one? A mystery. The second? Allegedly setting up Avengers: Doomsday. That’s all it took for fans to go from “Oh cool” to “I need to see this NOW.”

The post itself gained traction almost instantly. It wasn’t long before the reactions came flooding in some thrilled, some skeptical, and some just downright chaotic. After all, a Marvel post-credit scene is practically a cultural event at this point. People plan their bathroom breaks around them.

If there’s one thing Marvel fans know how to do, it’s react dramatically to all kinds of Marvel-related news. This time was no different.

One camp was purely hyped.

“Omg need it 😭”

This pretty much sums up the energy of those who are already manifesting this rumor into reality. Excitement levels are off the charts, and the idea of Avengers: Doomsday getting a sneak peek is enough to send fans into full meltdown mode.

Then there were the skeptics. The ones reminding everyone,

“It’s a rumor.”

You know, the responsible members of the fandom who are here to keep expectations in check before we all spiral into conspiracy theories about which actor secretly filmed a post-credit scene in a locked Marvel studio basement.

And, of course, there were the spoiler-sensitive fans. You know the ones. “Shh bro, don’t spoil any of the fun lol”

and “Thanks for ruining it. Nothing like not being surprised” were some of the more passive-aggressive gems in response to the post.

Because in a world where Marvel fans would rather go into movies blindfolded than risk knowing even a single plot detail, rumors like these feel like a betrayal.

Memes followed. Some people celebrated Fantastic Four like it was confirmed news, others posted “trust no one” GIFs, and a few just dropped crying emojis as if Marvel personally broke their hearts. It was truly a beautiful mess.

At the end of the day, we still don’t know if this rumor holds any truth. Marvel is notorious for keeping secrets, so unless Kevin Feige himself drops a hint (unlikely) or a major leak happens (also unlikely, but hey, you never know), this will remain in the land of speculation.

But whether it's real or not, one thing is for sure Marvel fans love a good rumor. And if nothing else, this one gave us some top-tier reactions, some heated debates, and a whole lot of excitement for Fantastic Four: First Steps and Avengers: Doomsday.

Now we wait. And when Fantastic Four finally hits theaters, you better believe we’ll all be sitting through the credits just in case.
