Marvel is back at San Diego Comic-Con this year with their very own panel, but the studio has kicked things off early by teasing the upcomingFantastic Fourreboot and its villain in the most extravagant way.

After theDeadpool and Wolverinepanel wrapped on Thursday, July 25, Marvel took to the skies to celebrate the movie with astunning drone displaypaying homage to The Merc with The Mouth and his clawed buddy. But afterward, the drones then rearranged to take shape of one of the most anticipatedupcoming Marvel moviesFantastic Four’s retro logo, and Galactus.Total Filmand GamesRadar+ were in attendance, stating that the light display confirms that Fantastic Four and Galactus will feature in Marvel’s Hall H panel this Saturday, July 27.

It wasrevealed earlier this yearthat comic book baddie Galactus will act as the villain in the upcomingFantastic Fourmovie, played by The Witch’s Ralph Ineson. First appearing in the 1965 comic Fantastic Four #48, Galactus (or Galan) is a cosmic being that feeds on the life energy of planets.

But the most interesting part of the display is that it confirms the Fantastic Four’s attendance at the Marvel Panel on Saturday, July 27. As of writing, Marvel is keeping their guest list under wraps and studio president Kevin Feige is the only speaker announced. But now we know Fantastic Four will occupy some of the hour in Hall H, we are hoping to see cast members such as Pedro Pascal (Mister Fantastic) or Joseph Quinn (Johnny Storm) in attendance.

As for other guests, the rumor mill has been on overdrive ever since Kevin Feige unveiled his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame during the second day of Comic Con. Stars such as The Avengers’ Chris Evans, Guardians of the Galaxy’s Chris Pratt, Captain Marvel’s Brie Larson, Agatha All Along’s Kathryn Hahn, Shang-Chi’s Simu Liu, and Thunderbolts*’s Sebastian Stan were all there to celebrate with Feige.Entertainment Tonightposted a video of the star unveiling on Twitter, see below.

This makes us think that we may be getting some updates on all of these projects if these same stars show up at the panel on Saturday. And who knows, maybe we’ll even get a trailer or two.
