This past Sunday, Americans watched the LA Rams take on the Cincinnati Bengals at Super Bowl LVI. However, game day was not just an event for die-hard football fans. Many people tuned into the Super Bowl to catch movie trailers, a tradition for the sporting event.

Viewers essentially grabbed a sneak peek of the upcoming movies, which only raises the excitement for the most anticipated 2022 movies. The lineup did not disappoint, with movie trailers ranging from superhero thrills to action blockbusters.

Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness

Every year, many Marvel fans anticipate a few Marvel trailers to drop at the Super Bowl, and the studio did just that. As Marvel Studios prepares for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness to release on May 6, a second trailer was released early on in the game.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY

The Super Bowl trailer did not hold back on the horror-ish “madness,” giving a better glimpse of the multiverse aftermaths from Spider-Man: No Way Home. The trailer also had many fans astonished by the latest revelations, with potential hints of Patrick Stewart returning as Professor X. However, the star of the trailer is Wanda Maximoff, embodying her darker and emotional persona. The second trailer presented the grand scope of the most anticipated superhero movie of 2022, with fans eagerly awaiting the film’s release.

Jurassic World Dominion

Four years have passed since Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, in which the film ended with the surviving Jurassic creatures let go into the current world. Now, the plot continues to thicken as the humans try to co-exist with the dinosaurs in Jurassic World Dominion, one of the most anticipated movies of 2022, per IMDb.

A trailer debuted early in the week and was aired at Super Bowl LVI. It showcases not just the current duo, Claire and Owen, returning to the big screen, but the original trio from Jurassic Park is also reuniting. The first trailer certainly left some goosebumps for fans who have loved the series since its inception, and Jurassic World Dominion plans to release on June 10.

Nope

Jordan Peele has become a household name in the horror genre with movies like Get Out and Us. He returns behind the camera with his newest horror craft, Nope, and an official trailer dropped on Super Bowl Day.

The Nope trailer already hit the mark with an obscure and mysterious premise, which exudes the typical atmosphere of most Peele films. Therefore, this horror film is already a major yes for many people who expect to watch it on July 22.

The Lost City

Paramount Pictures had a few movies to promote leading up to Super Bowl Day, and the first trailer was The Lost City. This fun action-adventure film builds on the “lost city” narrative, in which a novelist is caught up in a treasure hunt. Soon, a cover model of her novel attempts to save her.

The Lost City features an incredible cast, including Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum, Daniel Radcliffe, and Brad Pitt. The film appears to be action-packed with great comedy, expected to release on March 25.

The Adam Project (& Netflix 2022 Movie Previews)

Netflix did not miss out on the Super Bowl excitement as they promoted The Adam Project, scheduled to release on March 11. This sci-fi film follows a young boy who encounters an older version of himself. The time-traveling pilot seeks his help to help save the future.

Although The Adam Project was at the forefront of the Netflix trailer since it will be the first film to release on the streaming service, the trailer also showed a few first looks of other Netflix movies, including Knives Out 2 and The Gray Man.

Top Gun: Maverick

A Top Gun: Maverick trailer aired at the Super Bowl two years ago, but the film has yet to release due to the pandemic. There was no full-blown trailer at this year’s Super Bowl, but there was a creative approach to promote the film.

Despite the numerous postponements, the film is still an action movie to look forward to in 2022. This year, the trailer footage of Top Gun: Maverick meshes with the Porsche ad to remind viewers of the upcoming sequel releasing on May 27.

Many fans loved the Sonic the Hedgehog video games, but the franchise has expanded into the movies. After the first film received praises, fans were excited about the sequel.

Fans became ecstatic after the first trailer dropped for the upcoming sequel with the introduction of Knuckles and Sonic teaming up with a beloved character, Tails. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is exceeding expectations once again, and people of all ages cannot wait to see it on April 8.

Ambulance

Ambulance is Michael Bay’s upcoming action thriller, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II. The film follows a war veteran who teams up with his adoptive brother to rob a bank to pay his wife’s medical bills.

The action trailer emanates the action-filled spectacle and suspenseful thrills. Although a short Super Bowl TV spot, the action film seems promising with its excellent cast of talented actors. Ambulance will release on April 8, which fans of those involved will no doubt be anticipating.

DC – The World Needs Heroes

Warner Bros. also has four DC films in the 2022 lineup: The Batman, The Flash, Black Adam, and Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. Instead of individual trailers of each film, they released a single trailer showcasing the sneak peeks of each film. This is an insight into the DCEU, except for The Batman (which is not part of the DCEU).

Many fans were excited to see this trailer, including the first look of Dwayne Johnson donning Black Adam. The first looks have been incredible, and the film to kickstart this venture is The Batman, releasing on March 4.
