The trailer for Jack the Giant Slayer 2: Rise of the Titans opens with an ominous storm brewing over a distant mountain range. The camera pans to Jack (Nicholas Hoult), now a seasoned hero, standing at the edge of a cliff, gazing at the horizon as he narrates, “I thought the battle was over. I thought the giants were gone. But I was wrong.”
The scene shifts to the kingdom of Cloister, where King Jack and Queen Isabelle (Eleanor Tomlinson) have restored peace and prosperity. However, during a village festival, the ground trembles violently, and massive cracks begin to split the earth. A farmer rushes into the castle, shouting, “The giants are back, and they’re not alone!”
Quick flashes reveal the emergence of ancient titans—beings far more colossal and destructive than the giants Jack faced before. Hidden beneath the clouds for centuries, these titans have awakened, angered by humanity’s encroachment on their sacred lands. The trailer introduces a menacing new villain, Tharos, a titan leader with intelligence and the ability to manipulate storms.
Desperate to protect their kingdom, Jack and Isabelle seek the help of a mysterious mapmaker, Alaric (played by a new cast addition), who reveals the existence of a fabled artifact—the Titan’s Heart. This powerful gem is said to hold the key to controlling the titans but lies hidden in a perilous, uncharted realm.
The trailer ramps up with breathtaking sequences: Jack scaling massive cliffs to reach a floating city in the clouds, Isabelle leading the royal army against a towering titan, and a fierce aerial battle involving mechanical gliders crafted by Alaric. The tension escalates as Tharos captures Isabelle, forcing Jack to confront his greatest fears to save her and the kingdom.
The final moments show Jack wielding the Titan’s Heart, his resolve clear as he declares, “No matter how big the enemy, I’ll always stand tall.” The screen cuts to black as Tharos’s glowing eyes appear, signaling an epic showdown.
