It appears that Marvel enthusiasts are pleased with Julia Garner’s depiction of the Silver Surfer in The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

In a conversation about the movie’s key moments, a fan on X (previously Twitter) admired Julia Garner and exclaimed, “Julia Garner is incredibly badass as Silver Surfer!
