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.

Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day and animated tentpoles like The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and Minions 3 are all reported to have new footage during the broadcast.

Horror fans should be on the lookout for Scream 7, and it appears Lionsgate has spent on a pre-game ad spot for the Michael Jackson biopic, Michael. Beyond these, rumors are swirling about other potential Super Bowl weekend appearances by Pixar films Toy Story 5 and Hoppers, though nothing is yet guaranteed.

It’s the Minions vs. a very bad bunny in Minions & Monsters

Gen Z’s favorite little freaks (aka the Minions) are back to cause even more chaos in Minions & Monsters. This time: They’re summoning monsters because why not! There’s a cute little green guy, a scary-looking blue guy, and one very bad bunny (not to be confused with the Bad Bunny). Oh, and there’s a Blackpink needle drop! How you like that?

Brad Pitt is Cliff Booth…again!

Did the world need a sequel to Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood? No, not really. But are we getting one anyway? Absolutely. Brad Pitt reprises his standout role as Hollywood stuntman Cliff Booth in Netflix’s The Adventures of Cliff Booth, coming to the streamer sometime soon. It looks like it’s going to be a wild ride.

Will she end the bloodshed once and for all? We’ll have to find out when the film hits theaters later this month.

We’ll be updating this with all of the latest trailers, so be sure to check back throughout the night.

The Super Bowl is built on tradition. Cracking open a beer, demolishing a plate of wings with friends, filling out Super Bowl Squares, and at this point, betting on the color of the Gatorade shower.

Thanks to the widespread legalization of sports betting and the explosion of prop bets in the U.S., you can now wager on just about anything. Over the past few years, one of the strangest traditions to become fully normalized is betting on the postgame Gatorade dunk, when the winning team douses its head coach in the fluorescent sports drink.

You can currently place wagers on events far more serious than a locker-room celebration, including ongoing global conflicts. Against that backdrop, guessing the color of a sugary sports drink feels almost quaint. Last year, the winning color was yellow at +250 odds, even though purple was the favorite at +175, according to DraftKings via the New York Post.

Odds vary depending on where you place your bet. On Polymarket, blue currently has the most money behind it, while over at BetMGM, orange is favored at +225, with yellow, green/lime, and blue all trailing closely behind at +260.

The winner is a back-to-back champ

Sorry, blue bettors, but for the second year in a row, yellow came out on top. The winning Gatorade color once again defied expectations, even though it felt inevitable to anyone closely tracking the odds.

That said, a handful of fans were annoyed by how the result was revealed. Instead of waiting until the final whistle, the broadcast tipped its hand earlier than expected, effectively spoiling the prop bet before the game had officially ended.

In what will likely go down as one of the least thrilling Super Bowls in recent memory, the Seattle Seahawks finally got their revenge against the New England Patriots, defeating the AFC champions 29–13 to win Super Bowl LX.

The game got off to a sluggish start, with one of the league’s most explosive offenses in Seattle running headfirst into a relentless New England defense. The same stalemate played out on the other side of the ball, as Drake Maye’s Patriots offense struggled to generate any momentum against Seattle’s top-ranked scoring defense. Dubbed the Darkside Defense, a modern successor to the Legion of Boom, the Seahawks held New England to just 13 points, racking up seven sacks (tying a Super Bowl record) and forcing an interception in the process.

As for Patriots fans, the vibes are bleak.

Sam Darnold is a Super Bowl champion

The funniest and most satisfying outcome of the win is what it’s done for Sam Darnold’s legacy. Once widely written off as a bust, the Seattle Seahawks quarterback has now won the biggest game of his life. His diehard supporters, who have long and very ironically dubbed him GEQBUS, short for “God Emperor Quarterback of the United States,” are absolutely losing their minds. Over on the subreddit r/the_darnold, fans are firmly on cloud nine, basking in the kind of vindication only a Super Bowl win can deliver.
