Super Bowl LIV brought with it a slew of new movie trailers, including one for No Time To Die, the next entry in the James Bond franchise. The movie is expected to be the last with Daniel Craig starring as 007, and it is setting up some big changes for his future.

Exactly what those changes are remain a mystery, but what we do know is that it has something to do with Madeleine Swann, the returning character played by Léa Seydoux. Of course, Rami Malek’s villainous Safin will also play a role. Christoph Waltz appears in the trailer too, so expect to see Blofeld have some part to play in the future of Bond.

No Time To Die is expected to hit theatres on April 10. Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw, Naomie Harris, and Léa Seydoux (who also appears in Death Stranding) play M, Q, Miss Moneypenny, and Madeleine Swann respectively. In an unprecedented move, No Time To Die’s composer has been changed late into production. Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer (The Lion King, Gladiator, Blade Runner 2049) has taken over from Dan Romer.

There have been numerous other movie trailers shown during the game, including Mulan, Black Widow, and The Quiet Place 2, among others. You can watch them all in our Super Bowl movie trailer round-up.

Black Widow is Marvel’s next movie, and the start of the studio’s “Phase Four” block of films. It releases on May 1, and alongside the film’s new Super Bowl spot, Marvel has released four new character posters today.

The latest Black Widow posters revealed on Twitter show off the film’s four main characters–Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow, Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, Rachel Weisz’s Melina Vostokoff, and David Harbour’s Red Guardian. Check them out below.

This is Johansson’s eighth appearance as Black Widow, but the first time she has headlined her own movie. Florence Pugh is currently nominated for an Oscar for her work in Little Women, while David Harbour is best known for playing cantankerous police chief Jim Hopper in Stranger Things. Rachel Weisz is a huge star, who was most recently seen in 2018’s The Favourite.

Also worth noting is that Black Widow is suddenly sporting a lot of earrings, with upwards of nine visible piercings on the one visible ear. Whether this will have any bearing on the plot or character remains to be seen, but odds are that they’re being showcased so that fans have something to speculate on.

It’s also interesting to note that while the other characters appear to be glancing into the distance, Black Widow’s glance is right towards the camera.

This is likely to be Johansson’s last appearance as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe–and since it’s set before Avengers: Endgame, it’s possible that a few other characters will pop up one last time, too. Marvel will also release The Eternals in November.

When it rains, it furiously pours. Hot on the heels of the first trailer for F9, a new 30-second spot for the film has arrived. While it’s mostly made up of footage we’ve already seen, there is a new look at returning character Han (Sung Kang), in his car–where he belongs.

In case you somehow missed the news when the trailer arrived Friday, the first trailer for F9, the ninth installment in The Fast Saga, revealed that not only is Han still alive, but he’s part of the action. Reacting to the trailer release at the Fast and Furious 9 concert, Kang said, “It’s good to be home.”

How is he home, you might be wondering? It’s a great question, but one we’re going to have to wait a while to get an answer to. Of course, that didn’t stop GameSpot from coming up with 14 different ways his miraculous resurrection could be explained.

Of course, the return of Han isn’t all that F9 has going for it. The movie is also introducing Jakob, a character played by John Cena who happens to also be Dom’s (Vin Diesel) long-lost little brother we’ve never heard about before now. How convenient! Get ready for Diesel and Cena to stare at each other angrily for many scenes, in addition to the inevitable scene where they play chicken with their cars.

F9 races into theaters on May 22.

There sure are a lot of ads during the Super Bowl. Sure, the evening is all about the best of the NFC and AFC battling each other for NFL dominance, but most people like talking about the commercials. Companies put up millions of dollars for ads to try and get your attention.

Many times, these ads have a comedic slant, and sometimes, they’re actually funny–and often, they fail miserably. Over the course of Super Bowl LIV, there were a ton of ads, but only a few of them were actually really funny. So we collected the best ones from the NFL game and have them for you below.

If you want more from the Super Bowl check out all the movie trailers revealed during the evening as well as all the commercials.

Cheetos

When your hands are covered in Cheetos dust, you may not want to touch anyone or anything. MC Hammer pops up to sing the chorus from his hit song “U Can’t Touch This.”

Avocados From Mexico

Every year, Avocados From Mexico puts out some hilarious commercials for the Super Bowl. This year, it spoofs the Home Shopping Network with accessories for your avocado.

Rocket Mortgage

Apparently, Jason Momoa isn’t the man we all thought he was. Just watch the commercial for yourself, as it’s easily one of the best of the evening.

Pringles

Ricky & Morty make an appearance in this year’s Pringles commercial, poking fun at the other Pringles commercials from the past year. Also, there are Pringles robots now.

Doritos

Lil Nas X and Sam Elliot got into a dance-off during this Doritos commercial. Is there anything funnier than a horse with a sound system strapped to it? That’s rhetorical because the answer is obviously “no.”

The countdown to the MCU’s first movie of Phase 4, Black Widow, is slowly ticking down so naturally, the promotional campaigns are ramping up–and what better time than the Super Bowl to debut a brand new 30-second spot for the upcoming film? The big game may have only just begun but Natasha has joined a slew of heavy-hitting franchises from F9 and Mulan to A Quiet Place 2.

In the clip, Natasha admits through voice-over that the Avengers weren’t her first family and that, “at some point, we all have to choose between who the world wants you to be and who you are.” She’s, of course, referencing her time spent in the Red Room, the secret Russian training program responsible for Black Widow operatives like herself and Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh), which has only been vaguely explored through the eyes of the MCU since Natasha’s entrance into the cinematic universe back in Iron Man 2. Along with Yelena, Black Widow will be exploring Natasha’s connections with Red Guadian (David Harbour) and Melina Vostokoff (Rachel Weiss).

The only real new footage not already shown in the trailer released late last year features the film’s new villain, Taskmaster, displaying some very Captain America-flavored moves with his trademark “T” shield. This is definitely by design–though we may not know if it’s actually Tony Masters (yes, that is his real name–comics!) under the mask in the MCU’s version of the character, we can definitely assume the character’s “super learning” combat skills will come into play in one way or another. In the comics, Taskmaster is able to learn any fighting style instantly just by seeing it one time, meaning it’s more than possible for him to mimic not only Steve Rogers, but any other Avenger (or any other villain) with ease. Masters was even responsible for training US Agent to use the shield while he took over as Captain America in Steve’s stead.

Black Widow hits theaters on May 1.

During Super Bowl LIV, Paramount Pictures aired a trailer for Top Gun: Maverick, and it featured pretty much exactly what you’d expect–and want–from a Top Gun trailer. Interspersed between clips of jets doing awesome aerial maneuvers were shots of some drama, with a voice-over teasing that Tom Cruise’s Maverick will land himself in some hot water, again.

Naturally, there’s some rather striking shots with character aircrafts slowly being raised onto a deck, the silhouette of Maverick up against an ocean of water, and the sun partially blocked out by giant planes–all the Top Gun classics.

Top Gun: Maverick is directed by Joseph Kosinski, who previously directed Oblivion, another film that Tom Cruise appeared in. Joining Cruise in Top Gun: Maverick are Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, and Ed Harris. The movie comes to theaters on June 26, 2020.

The return of Han to the Fast & Furious series might be the weekend’s most surprising action franchise comeback–but it’s not the only one. Production starts this year on Mission Impossible 7 and 8, and writer/director Christopher McQuarrie has revealed that Eugene Kittridge, played by actor Henry Czerny, is coming back to the franchise after 24 years.

McQuarrie confirmed the news with a Twitter post, which simply read: “There is no escaping the past…#MI7MI8.” Czerny previously appeared as Kittridge in the first Mission: Impossible, which was released way back in 1996. Kittridge was the head of the Impossible Mission Force, who falsely believed that Tom Cruise’s character Ethan Hunt was an enemy mole, and attempted to flush him out, a plan which led to Hunt’s entire team getting wiped out. Kittridge has not appeared in any of the subsequent sequels, but it looks like Hunt will get to take care of unfinished business in the next movie. Check McQuarrie’s post out below:

McQuarrie is set to write and direct both Mission Impossible 7 and 8, which will be shot back-to-back and released in July 2021 and August 2022 respectively. Cruise will be joined by regular co-stars Rebecca Ferguson and Simon Pegg, with Hayley Atwell, Pom Klementieff, and Shea Whigham all joining the series for the first time.

In an interview with Empire, McQuarrie admitted that making two movie simultaneously was a daunting prospect. “I pitched the idea of making two movies, and now I have to justify why it’s two movies,” he said. “You’ve got to earn that. You’ve got to make something that swallows the last three movies whole. I’m freaked out now. We’ve talked ourselves into something. Holy s***.”

Before we see more of Ethan Hunt, Cruise will reprise another iconic role this summer–Top Gun’s Pete “Maverick” Mitchell. The long-awaited sequel, Top Gun: Maverick, hits theaters in June. Check out the latest trailer, and GameSpot’s guide to everything we know so far about Top Gun: Maverick.
