October of 2021 proved to be an exciting time for movie and television fans, as they got to see special looks at some of the most anticipated films of the coming few months. From superhero sneak peeks to action comedies, the future of fandoms seems bright.
This month has been packed with enough full-length trailers to make fans very excited for plenty of new films and television shows. With so much set to premiere in the near future, audiences may feel a bit overwhelmed at the potential of keeping up with everything. However, there are a few choice trailers that viewers will want to be sure not to miss.
10 The Flash: Armageddon
The Flash's 8th season is set to premiere in just a few weeks, setting out with a five-part crossover event that will span across the entire Arrowverse. Despite middling reviews of the show's previous season, fans seem enthusiastic about the Armageddon event coming Barry's way.
The trailer for this event was scarce on details, only dropping a few hints about The Flash's 8th season along the way. Barry is told by the new villain Despero that he has only one week before everyone he loves will be dead. In a desperate bid to save the world, he turns to his friends from the Crisis team for help. The season premiere will air on the CW on November 16th, 2021.
9 Uncharted
The Uncharted film adaptation has created some online buzz due to its controversial casting of Tom Holland in the role of Nathan Drake and Mark Wahlberg as Sully. Many fans criticized the casting choices as being too mainstream and for overlooking other obvious choices, such as Nathan Fillion, who has been fancast at Nathan Drake often.
Nevertheless, the first trailer for Uncharted may hint at fans being proven wrong. The film stars a much younger version of Nathan Drake than video game fans are used to as he searches for a long-lost treasure The film boasts some high-stakes action scenes and seems poised to be a box office smash when it hits theaters in February.
8 Tiger King 2
Tiger King was Netflix's runaway surprise hit of 2020 due to the docuseries' over-the-top subject matter and the worldwide pandemic that caused streaming numbers to skyrocket. The series followed the exploits of self-proclaimed "Tiger King" Joe Exotic as he lives his wild and unbelievable life in rural Oklahoma.
Fans were surprised when a second season of the miniseries was announced by Netflix last month, and perhaps equally surprised when the company dropped a full trailer a few weeks after that. The producers have promised just as much "mayhem and madness" in this season as in the original's few episodes. Audiences can stream Tiger King 2 starting November 17th.
7 Scream 2022
The Scream franchise has been dormant for ten years (excluding the MTV series), but just like its killers always do, it has returned from the dead once more to haunt Sidney Prescott one last time. Scream (2022) brings back the three major leads from the other films, played by Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette, and combines them with a cast of fresh faces new to the Scream series as they face off against another Ghostface killer.
The trailer for the fifth installment of Scream reveals that the new killers are targetting the relatives of previous Ghostface murderers, perhaps indicating how Sidney gets caught up in the mix once again (viewers will remember that the killer of the fourth film was revealed to be Sidney's cousin, Jill). The slasher film will be released theatrically on January 14th, 2022.
6 The Witcher Season 2
The Witcher, based on the massively popular book and video game series of the same name, turned out to be a major hit for Netflix in late 2019. Starring Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, the first season garnered praise from critics and fans alike, making a second season a no-brainer for the streaming giant.
The recently released trailer for the second season revealed the return of many fan-favorite characters, including Cavill's Geralt, Ciri (Freya Allan), and Jaskier (Joey Batey). The trailer also includes hints at new storylines, including Ciri's training in combat, the introduction of new witchers, and plenty more. The second season begins streaming on December 17th, 2021.
5 Hawkeye: Trailer 2
The Marvel Cinematic Universe's next installment on Disney+ is the long-awaited Hawkeye series. The six-part miniseries will depict Avenger Clint Barton as he is tracked down by gangs of mercenaries, training a successor, and working to unravel a sinister plot, all while trying to make it home to his family for Christmas.
The audience got their first look at Hawkeye in mid-September, but this second trailer gave them a better grasp of what to expect from the series when it airs next month. This particular sneak peek showcased more of Hailee Steinfeld's Kate Bishop as well, who seems poised to take the Hawkeye title after Clint's retirement. The first two episodes will premiere on Disney+ on November 24th.
4 Peacemaker
James Gunn's The Suicide Squad was a major improvement over 2016's original movie, with standout characters and storytelling that may just make one of the best of the DCEU films so far. Now, the film gets a sequel in the form of a spinoff series starring John Cena's Peacemaker.
Peacemaker has been the subject of plenty of fan hype since its announcement, and now the public has finally gotten its first look at the series. The first trailer unveiled new characters, including Peacemaker's new team, as well as his estranged and borderline abusive father, played by Robert Patrick. The first season of Peacemaker will stream on HBO Max on January 13th, 2022.
3 Red Notice
Red Notice may just be Netflix's most ambitious original film yet. Boasting the largest budget of any of the streamer's films, the movie is also brimming with star power, with Dwayne Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot making up the main cast.
The film's first full trailer premiered this month, showing off its massive scale: from mountaintop helicopter showdowns to bullfighting to hand-to-hand combat in an expensive art gallery, the film is sure to be an action-packed extravaganza of a movie. Viewers don't have to wait long to see it, either, as the movie will premiere on Netflix on November 12th.
2 Lightyear
When Disney announced a spinoff to the Toy Story franchise centering around Buzz Lightyear, fans were hesitantly curious at best. However, as we edge closer to the film's release, it seems as though the public is warming to the idea of the Chris Evans-led space adventure.
Little is revealed by the first official look at the film, but the trailer has taken over the Internet, especially regarding the first look at the character's Buzz Lightyear's never-before-seen hair. The film promises the winning combination of beautiful animation and emotional storytelling that Pixar is best known for, all while hopefully staying true to the Buzz Lightyear character that fans have grown attached to over the decades. The film comes out on June 17th, 2022.
1 The Batman: Trailer 2
The Batman's release is edging ever closer, and fans are growing more and more excited as time goes on. Helmed by Matt Reeves, the new film will showcase Robert Pattinson in his first outing as the Caped Crusader, as he hunts down the mysterious riddler (Paul Dano).
Attendees of DC's FanDome event earlier this month were treated to a thrilling second trailer for the superhero film, giving brand-new clues about the plot, and their first real look at Zoe Kravitz's Selina Kyle. The hype surrounding this film seems to grow with each new sneak peek, and fans will no doubt turn out in droves to see it when it releases on March 4th, 2022.
