Furiosa Film Footage Plus Aquaman 2, Joker 2, Wonka and Meg 2

When are three photographs from a single film extra thrilling than a complete trailer? When these three photographs are from George Miller’s Furiosa, in fact. That movie was one among a number of teased in a sizzle reel on the Warner Bros. panel throughout CinemaCon, which additionally included prolonged appears at Wonka, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, The Meg 2: The Trench, Joker: Folie à Deux, Blue Beetle, The Nun 2, and extra.

We’ve already coated each Dune Part Two and Barbie, each of which confirmed sufficient footage we felt every deserved its personal article. However beneath, you may examine the remainder, that are half footage descriptions and half normal reactions.

Furiosa

George Miller’s Mad Max: Fury Highway prequel Furiosa gained’t be out till Could 24, 2024, however three photographs from the movie screened as a part of a sizzle reel for the corporate. Shot one was of a person—in all probability Chris Hemsworth’s character—in full Mad Max garb, full with goggles (therefore not with the ability to see him clearly), together with his arms unfold out and awaiting some type of storm. Shot two was Anya Taylor-Pleasure, who performs Furiosa, utilizing her hand to wipe black paint on her brow. And the third shot was Taylor-Pleasure in full Furiosa mode, with the highest half of her head fully coated within the black stuff. Once more, it was a brief glimpse, but it surely was proof the film was coming, which is thrilling.

Joker: Folie à Deux

Also not coming until late 2024, the sequel to the Oscar-winning 2019 hit only had one shot that we can recall; it showed Arthur (Joaquin Phoenix) wiping the white paint on his face. Two 2024 movies with face paint, who knew?

Wonka

This one’s set for release December 15, 2023. An extended trailer was played for Wonka, which features Timothée Chalamet leading an incredible cast. It shows a young Willy Wonka who is passionate about candy, but is warned that many people want to sell chocolate in this area, but aren’t allowed because of a chocolate cartel. Yes, that’s the phrase used. “Chocolate cartel.”

He comes up with an idea though, and after pinky-promising his friend to go through with it, he gives people some chocolate that he says is different than normal—which they don’t quite understand until they start floating after they eat it. The crowd goes crazy as the police come in to see a bunch of people floating in the air.

The chocolate cartel doesn’t like how well Willy is doing and vows to stop him. We see Willy befriending a giraffe which later goes running through the streets. A brief shot shows Willy and his friend stuck in a pool of chocolate. A police officer played by Keegan-Michael Key falls out of his car with a bunch of chocolate saying he’s gained 150 pounds in two weeks by eating this candy.

Willy and his friend float with balloons like Up. We see his mom, played by Sally Hawkins, telling him in the past to never give up his dreams. To which Willy whispers, “Here we go, mama.” The text on the screen says “How Willy became…” and then the title card: Wonka.

But that’s not the end. Willy had a small person with orange skin and green hair in a glass container. This person, who has the face of Hugh Grant, says they’re an Oompa-Loompa and they’re about to perform the most magical song ever. Willy says he’d rather not but the Oompa-Loompa says “Too late, I already started.”

Wonka looks weird, to be sure, but also kind of optimistic and wondrous. We’re hoping it’s exactly that.

The Meg 2: The Trench

Directed by Ben Wheatley, Meg 2: The Trench opens in August so we were hoping the trailer that screened would be released online. Alas, it has not yet. But it starts with a scene talking about the species that ruled the Earth 65 million years ago. We see a T-Rex kill some smaller animals, before a massive megalodon jumps out of the water and eats the T-Rex.

After that, we see the main story itself, in which Jason Statham’s character and his team find a new ecosystem under the surface. So they put on some high-tech gear and go to investigate. Down there, a member of the team gets eaten by a very toothy creature when they discover the biggest megalodon ever. The apex predator.

Shots then shift to the surface where three sharks terrorize a vacation resort. One completely destroys a pier that people are walking on. A massive octopus starts grabbing at people. The glass in the underground lair that was so safe in the last film, smashes this time at the force of the new Meg. Eventually, we see Statham on a jet ski trying to use a spear to kill the Meg. When the Meg swims, it makes a wave, and so Statham, on a jet ski, rides the wave going after the Meg.

Meg 2: The Trench looks completely mental and we cannot wait.

The Nun 2

I’ve never seen the first Nun so I couldn’t really tell what, exactly, was happening in the extended trailer for the new film, but it looked scary as hell.

It starts with a group of young girls who trick one of their own to stare at a creepy stained glass window with the fear that, if she looks away, the devil will come to get her. Eventually, something moves behind her so she looks away, and as she tries to escape, something attacks her.

We learn that the Nun from the first movie is back and the trailer teases “the truth behind the greatest evil in the Conjuring universe.” Taissa Farmiga reprises her role from the first film but is now joined by Storm Reid. And while they’re in a bunch of scenes, the trailer’s final scene is those young girls again. They hear something upstairs and go to investigate. There, they find an old woman staring at the wall. They’re terrified and hide in a vent, when a pair of hands pop into the vent to grab them. The film opens September 8.

Blue Beetle

The Blue Beetle section of the panel was mostly an extended version of the trailer that’s now accessible on-line. The most important new additions have been a scene of one among Jaime’s sisters utilizing Blue Beetle tech as a defend to cease a bunch of males from capturing her. Jaime sees this and targets the lads, and beats them up in a hallway combat scene like in Oldboy or Daredevil.

The opposite massive addition is Jaime’s grandma holding an enormous high-tech weapon, and firing it like Arnold Schwarzenegger with the gatling gun in Terminator 2. Enjoyable stuff. The movie opens in August.

Aquaman and the Misplaced Kingdom

This one opens December 20. The most recent have a look at Aquaman and the Misplaced Kingdom started with Arthur Curry (Jason Momoa) speaking to his dad (Temeura Morrison) about how onerous it’s to boost a baby. Dad says that’s nothing in comparison with his essential job, which is to rule Atlantis, and we see photographs of Aquaman preventing one huge ship and battling one other by grabbing its anchor and bringing it all the way down to the ocean.

One thing is destroying the floor world and Arthur wants assist. The Black Manta is attempting to unlock an historic evil and there’s just one one who might help: Orm (Patrick Wilson), Arthur’s brother, who has been imprisoned. Orm says that this adjustments nothing—there’s clearly plenty of rigidity there—however finally ends up becoming a member of the combat.

Seems Manta has a black trident that has vital powers and he desires to kill Aquaman. That is minimize with footage of the lighthouse dwelling of his dad and mom burning. A later scene reveals Orm and Arthur in a jungle with an enormous hole they will’t cross. Orm says that leaders create bridges, so Arthur jumps into a big statue, which falls throughout the hole, making a literal bridge.

Within the jungle they see an enormous volcano with inexperienced smoke popping out of the highest. Beneath the water, an enormous epic battle takes place which incorporates all method of creatures and ships, together with one piloted by Nicole Kidman. Arthur’s spouse Hera, performed by Amber Heard, is in just a few photographs. Arthur and Orm combat some type of huge robotic spider and Arthur saves his brother by transferring a few of its mechanical legs. Finally, Arthur is instructed because the King of Atlantis, if he asks for assist it would come, and the ultimate photographs are all of all method of creatures and sea life, together with whales, coming to his support.

Assume the primary Aquaman, however simply with extra creatures, results, and settings. That’s Aquaman and the Misplaced Kingdom.
