The most wonderful time of the year for geeks concluded over the weekend as the 2022 San Diego Comic-Con happened in person for the first time since the pandemic. And like past conventions, this year's event saw the most exciting movie and TV series news, including trailers for much-anticipated movies like Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, House of the Dragon, John Wick Chapter 4, and more.
More than 35 trailers for upcoming comic book, sci-fi, and fantasy flicks and shows made their debut during the four-day event and we've rounded up the hottest of them all.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
What will the fate of Wakanda be after Chadwick Boseman's passing? The first Black Panther: Wakanda Forever trailer gives a glimpse of the vibranium-rich nation without its king T'Challa.
The teaser is set to an emotional cover of Bob Marley's No Woman Cry and sees the Shuri (Letitia Wright), queen mother Ramonda (Angela Bassett), Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o), Okoye (Danai Gurira), and the rest of Wakanda mourn for its king and gear up for war against Namor and his kingdom of Atlantis.
She-Hulk: Attorney At Law
In the newest She-Hulk trailer, we see Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) train with Bruce Branner's Smart Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) as she gets the hang of being an angry green hero. The latest video also shows other Marvel characters who'll be making a cameo in the series like Abomination (Tim Roth) and Sorcerer Supreme Wong (Benedict Wong).
Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power
Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power takes us thousands of years before Frodo Baggins walked Middle-earth. This prequel will tell the tales of how the rings were forged, the rise of Sauron, the epic of Númenor, and the Last Alliance of Elves and Men.
Shazam! Fury of the Gods
Billy Batson is back and so is his now-superpowered family. Aside from learning about their new powers, the new heroes face the wrath of Hespera and Kalypso, the daughters of the Greek titan Atlas.
House of the Dragon
Days after the release of its first trailer, Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon got an extended teaser. King Viserys I Targaryen must choose his next heir between his daughter Rhaenyra and his brother Daemon, but it seems like he'll be presenting a different choice for the succession.
John Wick Chapter 4
Keanu Reeves returns as John Wick for the fourth time as he's tracked down by an organization of killers known as the Table. In the 2023 film's first teaser trailer Wick wields a number of weapons, including nunchucks.
I Am Groot
It's a Groot origin story that we never thought we needed. The Guardians of the Galaxy hero—the baby version of him—gets his own Disney+ series, comprised of five shorts featuring the little tree's adventures on an alien planet.
Black Adam
Black Adam, another upcoming DC film, dropped a new trailer, showing the antihero (Dwayne Johnson) facing off against the members of the Justice Society.
The Sandman
Based on Neil Gaiman's graphic novel, The Sandman follows the tale of Dream (Tom Sturridge) as he tracks down magical items to return to the realm of Dreaming. The trailer also shows a glimpse of Gwendoline Christie as Lucifer Morningstar and Boyd Holbrook as the Corinthian.
