Thanks to the pandemic and Stranger ThingsDungeons & Dragons is more popular than it’s been in years. It’s time for a new movie adaptation of the famous tabletop role-playing game, and Paramount is our dungeon master.

The studio released a new trailer for Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves at San Diego Comic-Con. Check it out below:

Chris Pine is our wise-cracking hero de jour. Also, I’m getting Thor: Love and Thunder vibes from the classic rock score. You know what gets the kids into theaters these days according to studio executives? Led Zeppelin.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves comes out in March of next year.

Watch the full trailer for The Sandman on Netflix

Naturally, there are quite a few trailers coming out at SDCC. Here’s one for The Sandman, Netflix’s adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s wildly imaginative graphic novel:

Netflix is taking a big swing with this one. The Sandman is one of the most influential comics of all time, but the story is so damn weird that it could be a hard sell on TV. We’ll see how things go when it premieres on August 5.

What new trailers for Star Trek: Picard season 3 and Lower Decks season 3

Star Trek fans got a double dose of the final frontier at SDCC as Paramount trotted out new teaser trailers for the third seasons of Picard and Lower Decks. The third season of Picard is set to be the show’s last, and will feature several cast members from Star Trek: The Next Generation making their returns. Watch below:

Star Trek: Picard season 3 premieres on Paramount+ sometime next year.

Meanwhile, the animated Star Trek comedy Lower Decks is just getting going. Check out the full trailer for the third season below:

Star Trek: Lower Decks premieres on Paramount+ on August 25.

Watch the trailer for the new Teen Wolf movie on Paramount+

Another trailer is for the movie sequel to Teen Wolf, which wrapped up after six seasons in 2017. Tyler Posey (Scott McCall) and Tyler Hoechlin (Derek Hale) both return for the film, as does Crystal Reed (Allison Argent), who stopped being a series regular after season 3. Watch the trailer below:

What’s more, after the trailer played, Buffy the Vampire Slayer alum Sarah Michelle Gellar came on stage to announce that she’ll play a lead role in the upcoming Teen Wolf spinoff series Wolf Pack. “I only came here because they told me they booked Hall H, and I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’ll do the show,’” she quipped.

Neither the show nor the movie have release dates set as of yet.

Watch the grimdark trailer for Black Adam

We also got a new teaser trailer for Black Adam, the latest attempt by Warner Bros. to convince you to love DC movies like you love Marvel ones. They’re going for grim and dark and grimdark here. Watch below:

Black Adam comes out on October 21.

Watch the trailer for Shazam! Fury of the Gods

On the flipside, DC is also producing the much lighter Shazam! Fury of the Gods, wherein Zachary Levi continues to do a really good impression of a young kid trapped in the body of a huge superhero:

Shazam! Fury of the Gods comes out sometime around the holidays later this year.

Watch the new trailer for She-Hulk on Disney+

And speaking of that Marvel content that DC Films so desperately wants to compete with, we have a new trailer for She-Hulk, Marvel’s latest stab at light comedy.

She-Hulk premieres on Disney+ on August 17. Expect laughs, crossovers, cameos, and the color green.

Watch the trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

We also got a trailer for Black Panther: Wankanda Forever, which is probably the most highly anticipated movie on Marvel’s slate. This film has a lot on its shoulders. The star of the first movie, Chadwick Boseman, died unexpectedly in 2020. How will the movie adjust? Take a look at the trailer?

I don’t think I’ve been as interested in a Marvel movie in quite a while. This trailer is exciting. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever comes into theaters on November 11.

Watch the trailer for the final-ever episodes of The Walking Dead

The Walking Dead will be over by the end of this year, which is surreal to type. The show has been going for over a decade now, but it’ll all finish with these final eight episodes.

AMC debuted a trailer at SDCC. Check it out below:

The final eight episodes of The Walking Dead start airing on AMC and AMC+ on October 2. This trailer teases some new elements like more intelligent zombies. which is probably something that will be explored further in the spider-webbing network of Walking Dead spinoffs.

Yeah, just because the main show is ending doesn’t mean the franchise is. AMC is nowhere near done with the world of the dead.

Watch the trailer for I Am Groot

Moving on, Disney released a teaser for I Am Groot, a collection of animated shorts starring the titular tree creature of few words from the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. Behold:

I Am Groot premieres on Disney+ on August 10.

Watch the trailer for John Wick 4

“No one, not even you, can kill everyone,” someone tells Keanu Reeves in the new trailer for John Wick 4. Clearly he didn’t watch John Wick 1-3. Watch the new teaser trailer below:

John Wick 4 comes out on March 23, 2024.

Watch the trailer for Vampire Academy on Peacock

Zombies are out, vampires are in. There’s First Kill on Netflix, and now there’s Vampire Academy on Peacock.

This show, based on a series of novels of the same name, looks plucked from the 2000s. You have sexy teen bloodsuckers (hello, Twilight) vampires attending a private boarding school (hi, Harry Potter) getting into all kinds of scandalous misadventures (YA fiction in general). Check out the trailer below:

Vampire Academy premieres on Peacock on September 15.

Watch a teaser for National Treasure: Edge of Mystery

Finally, Disney released an oh-so-brief teaser for National Treasure: Edge Of Mystery, a new TV series about a young DREAMer named Jess Morales (Lisette Olivera) who investigates her family’s mysterious past and learns…I dunno, that she has to steal the Constitution or something; you know how those movies were.

Watch the teensy-tiny teaser below:

National Treasure: Edge Of Mystery also stars Catherine Zeta-Jones as a villainous black market antiquities dealer. Nicolas Cage, who anchored the National Treasure movies, is not in the series, and per The A.V. Club didn’t get mentioned on the SDCC panel until a fan asked about him. “We wanted him, but he was very busy,” answered producer Marianne Wibberley.

There’s no release date for this yet, either.

What other trailers will pop up during SDCC? Stay tuned.
