New ‘Inhumans’ Trailer Showcases Medusa’s Powers

A new Marvel’s Inhumans trailer dropped during Comic Con on Thursday, and we have good news: it’s an improvement!

The first trailer for the upcoming series got audiences very worried about the quality of the show, but this new trailer (even though it’s not perfect) certainly looks better.

The trailer showcases a bunch of new scenes and characters, but most importantly, it shows Medusa finally using her powers, and… well, once again, we’ll let you judge by yourself.

D23: New Info on ‘Wreck It Ralph 2,’ ‘The Incredibles 2,’ ‘Coco,’ and More

Filmmakers and animators from Disney and Pixar gathered at D23 to unveil a bunch of info on their upcoming animated movies.

Chief creative officer of Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios John Lasseter teamed up with the talent in front and behind of the camera from both studios to present new details on the upcoming movies.

It started with the first ever live performance of “Remember Me” from Pixar’s upcoming film, Coco. Anthony Gonzales (who voices Miguel), and Benjamin Bratt (Ernesto de la Cruz) teamed up on stage to perform the song. For the song’s grand finale, more than 160 performers joined Gonzales and Bratt.

“Our film embraces a broad landscape of music,” said director Lee Unkrich. “We were fortunate to have Kristen [Anderson-Lopez] and Bobby [Lopez] create ‘Remember Me’—it’s the signature song made famous by Ernesto de la Cruz, and it embodies the key theme in our story: the importance of remembering loved ones both in life and beyond.”

Continuing with the musical theme, Josh Gad (Olaf) took the stage to do a surprise performance of “That Time of the Year” from the upcoming holiday short Olaf’s Frozen Adventure.

The 21-minute featurette, directed by Kevin Deters and Stevie Wermers-Skelton, will play in front of Disney’s Coco later this year.

That was followed by director Brad Bird joining Lassater on stage and welcoming Craig T. Nelson (Mr. Incredible), Holly Hunter (Mrs. Incredible), Sarah Vowell (Violet), newcomer Huck Milner (Dash), and Samuel L. Jackson (Frozone).

Bird revealed some details about the film, confirming that The Incredibles 2 will pick up right after the first movie, right when the Underminer comes up and you see the family changing into their supersuits.

However, it seems like now all the action will go to Mrs. Incredible, with Hunter saying “Bob’s actually home with the kids this time and I’m the one out fighting crime.”

The movie is set to hit theatres June 15, 2018.

Ralph Breaks the Internet (a.k.a. Wreck it Ralph 2) brought fans probably one of the most epic moments in Disney history.

Lasseter unveiled a scene to fans featuring the Disney Princesses, and revealed that he had asked the princesses voice actress to make a cameo on the sequence. That was followed by said voice actresses coming on stage together for the largest gathering of Disney Princesses ever.

From left to right: Paige O’Hara (Belle), Irene Bedard (Pocahontas), Mandy Moore (Rapunzel), Auli’i Cravalho (Moana), Sarah Silverman (Vanellope), Kristen Bell (Anna), Kelly Macdonald (Merida), Anika Noni Rose (Tiana), Linda Larkin (Jasmine), and Jodi Benson (Ariel).

In the upcoming movie, Ralph (John C. Reilly), Vanellope (Sarah Silverman) and company will leave the arcade behind and jump right into the wonders of the Internet.

They will encounter a new character, Yesss, an algorithm voiced by Empire‘s Taraji P. Henson. “Yesss is a new character who owns the website Buzzaholic,” said Henson. “Yesss knows about everything cool and on trend. And she does spell her name with a triple ‘s.’ Yesss is very savvy, smart and sexy.”
