Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
Hold on, webslingers! An awesome new trailer for the animated film is here! The trailer features Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) as the new Spider-Man who meets up with the original Spider-Man, Peter Parker (Jake Johnson). There’s plenty of action and the graphics are amazing! Plus, Spider-Gwen (Hailee Steinfeld)! The three heroes will face the Prowler (Mahershala Ali) and the Kingpin (Liev Schreiber). Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse swings into theaters December 18.
Mortal Engines
The official trailer for Peter Jackson’s steampunk thriller, Mortal Engines, is here! This film looks very intriguing; it’s based on the book series by Philip Reeve. The movie features Hester Shaw (Hera Hilmar) as a fugitive seeking revenge for the death of her mother. She fights Thaddeus Valentine (Hugo Weaving) and uncovers secrets about the mobile empires that roam the earth. The film is directed by Christian Rivers, and written by Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh, and Phillipa Boyens. The trailer is quite the adventure in a post-apocalyptic world. Mortal Engines rolls into theaters December 14, 2018.
Bumblebee
No, not the insect kind… The first trailer for a new Transformers film is here! The film focuses on fan favorite Bumblebee who befriends a young girl (Hailee Steinfeld). Once he’s found out to be a transforming robot, the two friends must flee from the government. While running for their lives, a new transformer shows–the Decepticon Starscream! The film looks more low-key than the others in the franchise, which actually makes it look rather enjoyable. Bumblebee hits theaters December 21.
Ant-Man and the Wasp
With the Marvel film almost upon us, a host of new posters have been released! Check out all the posters here. They feature Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet van Dyne (the original Wasp), Michael Douglas’ Hank Pym, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, Laurence Fishburne as Bill Foster, and of course Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly as Ant-Man and the Wasp, respectively. The posters show an assortment of awesome costumes/armor, and each character looks pretty tough. Ant-Man and the Wasp will be in theaters July 6, 2018.
