Now that Super Bowl 2025 has come and gone, here’s a list of all the trailers aired during the big game.

F1 (2025)

F1 | Only In Theaters SUMMER 2025

Apple and Warner Bros. surprised viewers with a brief but bombastic teaser for their high-octane sports drama, F1. Directed by Joseph Kosinski of Top Gun: Maverick, this film stars Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, a fictional Formula One racer who comes out of retirement years after a terrible crash to mentor a rookie played by Damson Idris.

Though the trailer features little to no dialogue, the suspenseful music and thrilling visuals position it as a must-see summer blockbuster.

F1 opens in theaters on June 27, 2025.

Novocaine (2025)

Novocaine | Superbowl Commercial (2025 Movie)

Before the Super Bowl began, Paramount Pictures shared a brief TV spot for Jack Quaid’s upcoming movie. This action-packed film follows a mild-mannered banker who’s immune to pain as he fights off a gang of robbers to rescue his girlfriend.

Though the video is short, it did give audiences new glimpses of this unconventional but ultraviolent adventure. As the titular hero brushes off several high-concept injuries with zero trouble, Novocaine continues to show great promise as a unique, comedic action blockbuster.

Novocaine opens in theaters on March 14, 2025.

Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)

Jurassic World Rebirth | The Big Game Spot

Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey lead the next adventure in the Jurassic World franchise, with a thrilling sneak peek airing during the Super Bowl. Since the film’s first trailer was released days beforehand, the game day TV spot featured a lot of footage that had already been revealed, essentially making it a compressed version of the former.

That doesn’t detract from how exciting the film looks, as Jurassic World Rebirth promises to show a new gang of heroes facing off against an island filled with mutant dinosaurs in a film brimming with realistic visuals and heart-pounding action scenes.

Jurassic World Rebirth opens in theaters on July 2, 2025.

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (2025)

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning | Big Game Spot (2025 Movie) - Tom Cruise

Naturally starting with Tom Cruise running, the trailer for Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning gives an emotional and explosive preview of Ethan Hunt’s last mission on the big screen.

As the trailer shows a flashback to the franchise’s very first film in 1996, it builds up a lot of hype for The Final Reckoning to be the culmination of the Mission: Impossible saga as Ethan and his team continue to face their biggest threat yet. And with the film’s death-defying biplane stunt on display, this sequel proves to be another epic spy adventure that demands to be seen in cinemas in 2025.

Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning opens in theaters on May 23, 2025.

Lilo & Stitch (2025)

Lilo & Stitch Super Bowl Spot - Stitch Runs Loose At The Big Game (2025)

Disney unveiled a surprising and clever promo for its live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch for the Super Bowl. The advert shows Stitch running onto the field and interrupting the game, with the announcers providing hilarious commentary throughout the video.

Though the stadium staff tries to wrangle him up in a trash can, the blue fuzzball continues to wreak havoc and drives a cart into a goalpost, making a memorable impression on the audience in the trailer and viewers at home.

Lilo & Stitch comes to theaters on May 23, 2025.

How to Train Your Dragon (2025)

How To Train Your Dragon | Big Game Spot

The Super Bowl showed more of Hiccup and Toothless together in live-action for the upcoming remake of How to Train Your Dragon. With the trailer featuring breathtaking visuals, big dragons, and thrilling airborne battles, this film seems like it will live up to the legacy of the original film while presenting a fresh new take on an animated classic.

On top of that, this commercial reveals it was only advertising the film’s next full-length trailer, which is scheduled to premiere on the Wednesday after Super Bowl Sunday.

How to Train Your Dragon opens in theaters on June 13, 2025.

Smurfs (2025)

Smurfs | Big Game Spot (2025 Movie) – Rihanna

Rihanna may not have headlined the Super Bowl halftime show again, but she starred in the trailer for the new Smurfs movie as Smurfette. The preview for 2025’s Smurfs presents the titular characters voiced by a whole new cast of stars with a vibrant new animation style.

Like the 2013 film, this adaptation will blend cartoons with live-action as the Smurfs travel from their village to the human world to save Papa Smurf in a family-friendly fantasy adventure.

Thunderbolts* (2025)

Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts* | Big Game Trailer | In Theaters May 2

Marvel Studios gave fans another exciting preview of their next big crossover film, Thunderbolts*. The film’s trailer gives a clearer idea of what the titular antiheroes are up against, as it shows them facing off against Lewis Pullman’s superpowered character, Bob/Sentry.

Sentry’s darker, more destructive alter ego, the Void, seems to be unleashing havoc all across New York City. And with the Thunderbolts struggling to cooperate, this trailer teases a true David and Goliath story as Earth’s Unlikeliest Heroes face off against one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s biggest threats yet.

Scary Movie 6 returned after more than a decade, and the gamble paid off at the box office. The sixth installment debuted to $55 million domestically, the best opening weekend in the series' history, and went on to gross over $215 million worldwide as of late June.

Ahead of the movie's June 5 theatrical release, Wayans Bros. Entertainment launched a website called Subservient Ghostface, where you type a command and watch the masked killer carry it out on screen. It's a clever campaign that borrows directly from Burger King's famous Subservient Chicken stunt from 2004, swapping the chicken suit for the horror icon Ghostface from Scream.

Comcast's breakup sounds like an alarm bell for Peacock, Xfinity, and the monthly internet bill. At the service level, the answer is calmer. Current customers shouldn't expect subscriptions, billing, or broadband plans to change while the company works through the split.

NBC News reports that Comcast plans to spin NBCUniversal and Sky into a separate public company, moving Peacock, Universal, NBC, Telemundo, Bravo, theme parks, and Sky away from the broadband and wireless business. The separation is expected to take about a year.
