Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Promo Hypes Frieza's Big Comeback
Dragon Ball Super has confirmed it's going to be bringing Frieza back to the action with the latest promo for the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero movie! As Frieza continues to float around the canon following the events of Dragon Ball Super: Broly, fans have been eagerly anticipating when the famous villain would be popping up again. The foe has yet to show up in the pages of the manga's new arcs (which go far beyond the anime's events), but at least there will be even a little bit of a return from the villain in the upcoming Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero feature film.
With Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero nearing its debut across theaters in Japan in just a couple of weeks, Toei Animation has begun to show off even more of the new movie in action to help fill those seats. While fans had been teased about all of the characters that would be showing up in the movie, the latest promo for the film actually teases that we will be seeing Frieza again in some capacity as the villain is briefly shown alongside many of the other characters. Check out the promo in question below:
Although Frieza had not been announced for the film beforehand, it's highly likely that this villain is not the "secret" character the promotional materials and some of the cast had alluded to. The brief look at the villain here might be the only appearance we actually get to see. Think of it like how Dragon Ball Super: Broly did a brief recap of some of the villains and briefly showed them on screen. This might be how Frieza shows up in the movie, as a passing reference, because the main fight seems completely separate from something he might be involved in.
Thankfully it won't be too long before we get to see whether or not Frieza plays an active role as Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero hits Japan on June 11th and theaters around the world later this Summer. Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment will be releasing the film internationally, and they describe it as such, "The Red Ribbon Army was once destroyed by Son Goku. Individuals, who carry on its spirit, have created the ultimate Androids, Gamma 1 and Gamma 2. These two Androids call themselves "Super Heroes". They start attacking Piccolo and Gohan…What is the New Red Ribbon Army's objective? In the face of approaching danger, it is time to awaken, Super Hero!"
