Get ready for an epic night of movie magic! The Super Bowl 2026 is not just about the game; it's a showcase for Hollywood's biggest and brightest. But here's where it gets controversial... some major studios are sitting this one out!
The Big Game's Blockbuster Trailers: What to Expect and What's Missing
Super Bowl LX is upon us, and with it, a glimpse into the future of cinema. While this annual event usually brings a slew of exciting movie trailers, this year might be a bit different. According to Deadline, Marvel, Netflix, Apple, and Warner Bros. are reportedly not planning to showcase any new footage during the game. But fear not, movie enthusiasts! There's still plenty to get excited about.
The No-Shows and the Must-Sees
Despite the notable absences, Super Bowl LX will still deliver an array of highly anticipated trailers. Star Wars fans are eagerly awaiting Disney's potential reveal of a trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu. Other anticipated films include The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, and the highly anticipated Michael Jackson biopic.
IGN will be your go-to source for all the latest trailers, so keep this page bookmarked for updates! We'll also have a live list of the best commercials from the Big Game, so you won't miss a beat.
Supergirl: A Surprise Appearance for the Puppy Bowl
Although Warner Bros. won't be advertising during the game, DC Comics has given us a sneak peek at Supergirl for the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet. This 47-second TV spot introduces us to Kara Zor-El's superpowered pup, Krypto, and hints at their final days on Krypton. In between shots of the canine hero, we get a taste of the film's action-packed scenes, leaving us eager for more.
Supergirl hits theaters on June 26, 2026, and we can't wait to see more!
Hoppers: Pixar's Animal Antics
Pixar's Hoppers was one of the first trailers to drop for Super Bowl LX, and it's a treat! The 30-second commercial reminds us of the film's unique premise - a person turned into a beaver - and showcases a menagerie of other creatures, from snakes to dancing frogs. Hoppers is another imaginative offering from Disney and Pixar, and it's set to hit theaters on March 6, 2026.
Disclosure Day: A UFO Sighting Like No Other
Director Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day is generating buzz, and the second trailer only adds to the excitement. This UFO-centric movie emphasizes action without giving away too much of the story. We see Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colman Domingo, and Colin Firth caught in a world on the brink of extraterrestrial contact.
Disclosure Day promises to be an out-of-this-world experience, landing in theaters on June 12, 2026.
