A few months ago it was revealed that Doug Jones will be playing Silver Surfer in the Fantastic Four sequel. Up until now we have only seen “green screen” work of Jones as the Surfer.

USA Today has given us the first look at the Herald of Galactus.

With computer-generated imagery techniques similar to those used to create Gollum in The Lord of the Rings, the slippery Surfer, voiced by Doug Jones, “will look somewhere between gun metal and fluid metallics so you can see the body motion, the breathing, the muscle tone, the mood,” says Marvel Studios CEO Avi Arad.

The Surfer’s mood is key to the story. After striking a deal with the evil Galactus to save his planet, the once-human Surfer wreaks havoc throughout the cosmos. “He is a highly emotional being, trapped inside fluid metal,” Arad says.

Audiences will get a first look at the Silver Surfer this weekend in trailers before Night at the Museum.

From the little bit that has been revealed, I must say that I like what I see.
