'The LEGO Movie 2' TV Spot: LEGO Batman Is Such A Humble Hero
The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part revealed a new international trailer not too long ago, showing off the return of the LEGO Justice League. Now a new TV spot brings the DC Comics superhero team back in the minifigure form, but of course, the real superhero star is none other than LEGO Batman making a return, and it looks like he's even carrying some Oscars in this movie, even though The LEGO Batman Movie got snubbed for a Best Animated Feature nomination last year.

The new footage in this TV spot isn't exactly abundant, especially when it comes to the appearance of Justice League. It recycles the same quick scene from the international trailer where they try to leave Green Lantern behind. But there is a new shot of the heroes emerging as the sun sets behind them. Superman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and The Flash are there, but there's also a fifth superhero, and it's not easy to tell who it is. Here's the shot in question, but the video quality is low so it's hard to make out:
The best guess is Cyborg since he's a key member of the team, but the skin you can see through the character's headpiece appears to be white instead of black, and there's something about that head which doesn't exactly match up with any LEGO design we've seen of the character. Either way, it's a cool hero shot that looks better than anything in the actual Justice League movie.
Finally, LEGO Batman makes a noteworthy appearance, and it would seem he's very humble about saving everyone and letting them hide out in his cave during the post-apocalyptic shake-up that followed the arrival of the aliens from the planet Duplo.
One final interesting detail to note is that Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is now acclaimed enough to be touted as one of the projects listed in the "from the producers of" bumper. So everyone who loved The LEGO Movie and the animated Spider-Man adventure are in for a real treat.
Here's the synopsis for The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part:
