Iron Man and Hancock to Be at 2008 Super Bowl

While last year's Super Bowl was a bust as far as exclusive new movie commercials were concerned, this year's telecast will feature at least eight new films. According to Variety, seven different studios have bought up air time during the telecast and will used it to show some never before seen footage from their highly anticipated 2008 slates.

What exciting new spots will we see? Paramount and Marvel will unveil new scenes from Iron Man, while Sony will be busting out a new ad campaign for Will Smith's upcoming superhero flick Hancock. New Line will premier promos for Will Ferrell's Semi-Pro, which will be run in conjunction with Budweiser.

Disney is still considering which films it will flaunt during the Super Bowl, but you can most likely count on seeing commercials for both WALL&#8226E and The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Universal, Warner Brothers, and Fox have all bought ad space as well but are choosing to keep their promotional spots a secret at the moment.

You can check out all the excitement when the Super Bowl airs February 3rd of 2008.

Iron Man was released May 2nd, 2008 and stars Robert Downey Jr., Terrence Howard, Jeff Bridges, Gwyneth Paltrow, Leslie Bibb, Shaun Toub, Faran Tahir, Clark Gregg. The film is directed by Jon Favreau.

Hancock was released July 1st, 2008 and stars Will Smith, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman, Jae Head, Eddie Marsan, David Mattey, Maetrix Fitten, Thomas Lennon. The film is directed by Peter Berg.

    I'd like to see The Incredible Hulk trailer. Bond 22 and a new Dark Knight trailer would also be great. Iron-Man should be in there too-it needs it. Speed Racer just looks like crap-brightly colored CRAP.

    The game is scheduled to be played following the 2007 regular season on February 3, 2008 at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. This will be the second time that the Phoenix, Arizona, metropolitan area will host a Super Bowl game; Super Bowl XXX in January 1996 was played in Tempe's Sun Devil Stadium.
