Cars Fly in New Super 8 ‘It Arrives’ TV Spot

Paramount has released a new TV spot for J.J. Abrams Super 8 that includes some new footage and a car flipping while floating in mid air.

There’s a couple quickly cut montages in the spot that mix mostly recycled footage from the Super 8 theatrical trailer with some new shots. Though we don’t get to see the Super 8 monster, and I personally don’t want to until I see the film in its entirety, we do get to see Joel Courtney’s character watch the hatch on the crashed train blow off and fly into the air. He has a direct view of seeing what emerges from the train car.


The spot’s money shot is the floating car which appears to happen while the kids are shooting their zombie movie. Hopefully they got it on film.

In addition to Courtney, Super 8 stars Kyle Chandler, Elle Fanning, Ron Eldard, Noah Emmerich, Gabriel Basso and Ryan W. Lee. The mystery will be solved on June 10.
