The Twilight Zone Super Bowl Trailer Wants You To Question Reality

Freaky.

3 Comments

Super Bowl LIII was replete with trailers, and although movies are often the biggest draw--see: Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame--a few TV shows also caught viewers' attention. One of these is the upcoming Twilight Zone reboot from Get Out director Jordan Peele. The trailer pulled a bit of a bait and switch on us by interrupting what looked like the official Super Bowl broadcast, before cutting to an empty stadium.

This was all setup to introduce Jordan Peele, who is not only producing the new Twilight Zone series, but is also narrating it. The stadium seems to exist in two different dimensions, with lights flicking on and off, sodas vanishing, and signs also disappearing in mid-air. Peele eventually asks the viewer to question the truth, and also what dimension they're in.
