The Super Bowl is not just about the game; it's a cinematic spectacle! IGN's coverage of Super Bowl LX reveals a surprising twist in the usual movie trailer extravaganza.
The 2026 Super Bowl promises to be a thrilling event, not just for sports enthusiasts but also for movie lovers. Typically, this grand stage showcases upcoming blockbusters, but this year, some major players are sitting it out. Marvel fans might be disappointed as Avengers: Doomsday and Spider-Man: Brand New Day are rumored to be skipping the trailer release. And it's not just Marvel; Netflix, Apple, and Warner Bros. are also reportedly absent from the trailer lineup, according to Deadline. But why? That's the question on everyone's mind.
Despite these no-shows, the excitement doesn't fade. Star Wars enthusiasts eagerly anticipate Disney's potential reveal of The Mandalorian and Grogu trailer. Additionally, viewers can expect teasers for highly-anticipated films like The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, and the mysterious Disclosure Day. And let's not forget the Michael Jackson biopic, which is sure to generate buzz.
But here's where it gets controversial: While Warner Bros. may not have a trailer during the main event, they surprised fans with a sneak peek at Supergirl during the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet. This unexpected move featured Krypto, the superpowered pup, in a 47-second clip, leaving fans wanting more. And Pixar's Hoppers trailer, with its unique person-turned-beaver narrative, has already made an appearance, showcasing a whimsical world of animal adventures.
As for Disclosure Day, the second trailer offers a tantalizing glimpse of Steven Spielberg's UFO thriller, starring Emily Blunt and Colin Firth. Audiences are left wondering what secrets the film holds.
