The stars and studios may not be out in full force at San Diego Comic Con this weekend, but that’s not stopping them from capitalizing on the biggest pop culture event of the year to promote their projects. Yesterday Marvel Studios did just that with the release of a new trailer and one-sheet for the next MCU film, The Marvels.
There’s not much new information to be gleaned from the new trailer, though it does include viewers’ first good look at actress Zawe Ashton as the film’s villain, Dar-Benn. Beyond that, the trailer offers a better look at the interplay between the three titular Marvels, Carol Danvers (Brie Larson), Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), and Kamala Khan (recently-minted Ms. Marvel writer Iman Vellani), as well as a reunion between Carol and old friend Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson).
And, of course, plenty of flerkens.
The MCU has faltered theatrically of late, particularly with Phase 5 launch film Ant-Man: Quantumania, which was largely panned and criticized for poor visual effects. More recently the third and final Guardians of the Galaxy film fared better, though there’s certainly a lot riding on the success of The Marvels both commercially and critically to show that the MCU hasn’t completely lost its way.
The Marvels is due out in theaters on November 10th.
