Super Bowl Movie Trailers 2022: What to Expect

The Adam Project

The Ryan Reynolds-starring The Adam Project is set to debut on Netflix on March 11th which makes it likely that we'll be getting a trailer. In The Adam Project, "after accidentally crash-landing in 2022, time-traveling fighter pilot Adam Reed teams up with his 12-year-old-self on a mission to save the future."

Moon Knight

Okay, so this isn't a movie, but it is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, so it makes the list. The series is set to debut on Disney+ on March 30th and while the first trailer for the highly anticipated, Oscar Isaac starring series has already debuted, Marvel could drop a new spot for the series during the big game. Moon Knight "follows Steven Grant, a mild-mannered gift-shop employee, who becomes plagued with blackouts and memories of another life. Steven discovers he has dissociative identity disorder and shares a body with mercenary Marc Spector. As Steven/Marc's enemies converge upon them, they must navigate their complex identities while thrust into a deadly mystery among the powerful gods of Egypt."

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

Another MCU entry, the film isn't set to open in theaters until May 6th and has already had its first trailer debut as well, but it still seems like a pretty solid contender for another trailer or television spot during the big game.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

Opening on April 8th, it's pretty likely we'll see a trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog 2. That film released its first trailer online back in December. In Sonic the Hedgehog 2, "after settling in Green Hills, Sonic is ready for more freedom, and Tom and Maddie agree to leave him home while they go on vacation. But no sooner are they gone when Dr. Robotnik comes back, this time with a new partner, Knuckles, in search of an emerald that has the power to both build and destroy civilizations. Sonic teams up with his own sidekick, Tails, and together they embark on a journey to find the emerald before it falls into the wrong hands."

The Lost City

Starring Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum, and Brad Pitt, in The Lost City "reclusive author Loretta Sage writes about exotic places in her popular adventure novels that feature a handsome cover model named Alan. While on tour promoting her new book with Alan, Loretta gets kidnapped by an eccentric billionaire who hopes she can lead him to an ancient city's lost treasure from her latest story. Determined to prove he can be a hero in real life and not just on the pages of her books, Alan sets off to rescue her." The film is set to open in theaters on March 25th.

Jurassic World: Dominion

Expected to be released on June 10th, the sequel to Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is likely to debut some sort of spot during the big game. It's also likely that we'll see the already-airing Olympic tie-in spots that feature snowboarder Shaun White, ice skater Nathan Chen, and downhill racer Mikaela Shiffrin as the Beijing Olympics are underway now through February 20th.

Minions: The Rise of Gru

Opening on July 1st, Minions: The Rise of Gru initially debuted its first trailer back in 2020, but the film was pushed back due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With the film back on track for release this summer, it makes sense that a trailer could air during the Super Bowl this year.

Top Gun: Maverick

While Top Gun: Maverick recently featured star Tom Cruise in a promo/trailer during the AFC title game between the Bengals and the Kansas City Chiefs, with the film set to open in theaters on May 27th, the timing of the eagerly anticipated film certainly would make sense for promotion during the Super Bowl.

Super Bowl LVI takes place on Sunday, February 13th and will be broadcast on NBC.
