Here’s what we know about her appearance, her role in the film, and her life off-screen.

Vanessa Kirby shows off her baby bump at the Fantastic Four: First Steps premiere

Vanessa Kirby appeared at the Fantastic Four: First Steps fan event in Berlin, Germany, on July 8, 2025, where she revealed her baby bump in a skintight black dress. The 37-year-old actress, who is pregnant with her first child, posed for photos while cradling her stomach on the blue carpet at Das Center alongside co-stars Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach.

Kirby plays Sue Storm, also known as the Invisible Woman, in the upcoming Marvel Studios film. The event was held ahead of the movie’s release on July 25. One day before the Berlin premiere, the main cast attended a promotional event in Paris. At the Berlin premiere, Pedro Pascal wore Tom Ford, while Vanessa Kirby completed her look with silver drop earrings and black heels.

Vanessa first debuted her pregnancy last month during a photocall for Fantastic Four in Mexico. The film marks the 37th entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and is directed by Matt Shakman. It features the titular superhero team protecting a retro-futuristic world from the cosmic threat of Galactus.

Kirby is currently in a relationship with retired lacrosse player Paul Rabil. The couple reportedly became engaged in December 2024 after two years of dating. They were first seen together in October 2022 and made their relationship public in November 2023 through an Instagram post shared by Rabil.

Paul Rabil, who co-founded the Premier Lacrosse League, dated Eiza González and married Kelly Berger from 2014 to 2017. Vanessa Kirby played Princess Margaret in The Crown and briefly dated actor Christopher Abbott in 2022.

Fantastic Four: First Steps is the reboot of the franchise under Marvel Studios.
