The Super Bowl isn’t just about touchdowns — it's also Hollywood’s most expensive movie night.
As millions tune in for Super Bowl 2026, studios seize the moment to unveil new trailers, betting that nothing sells a blockbuster quite like debuting it in the middle of America's biggest TV event.
So, what can we expect during this year's Big Game? Movie fans are in for a stacked lineup of first looks and TV spots. According to Variety, Disney is putting all its weight behind The Mandalorian and Grogu, which already has a teaser in theaters now and is slated to bring Star Wars back to the Super Bowl stage once again.
