Fewer Movie Spots Expected to Air During Super Bowl 53
The ads set to air during Super Bowl 53 will not include as many Hollywood movie spots as in the past, reported by THR.
The major Hollywood studios used to air as many as eight to 10 promos during the Super Bowl, but in 2018 they dropped to six, and this year could be as little as only three or four.
The main reason is due to high costs – as the price is approximately $5 million for a mere 30-second spot on CBS’ channel.
Disney is expected to have the most spots, as they have a huge film slate for 2019 – but it is unknown if they will show most of their trailers for upcoming films during pre and postgame shows, which cost roughly half as much as during the Super Bowl itself.

Potential movie spots that could be seen from Disney include Captain Marvel, which releases on March 8; Dumbo on March 29; Avengers: Endgame on April 26; Aladdin on May 24; Toy Story 4 on June 21; and The Lion King on July 19. THR reports that promo for Star Wars: Episode IX should not be expected, as the release date is still far out.
A spot for Avengers: Endgame is suspected, as last years’ Avengers: Infinity War promo produced the most hype out of any spot throughout the NFL game.
Universal is expected to advertise Hobbs and Shaw – the Fast and Furious spin off – which hits theaters on Aug. 2.
Paramount will reportedly promote Wonder Park, which comes out March 15, during the pregame show – similar to what it did in 2018 with A Quiet Place, but will not have ads during the actual game.
Reports of 20th Century Fox are unclear, as the Disney merger is not yet final. Dark Phoenix, which releases on June 7, is reportedly a possibility.
Stay tuned to IGN for all of the promos and trailers that come out of Super Bowl 53 on Sunday, Feb. 3, 2019. In the meantime, read up on some of our Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame news.
