Today’s Warner Bros. panel was one of the most-hyped events of Comic-Con, and it has not disappointed. Here are all the highlights:

Wonder Woman 1984 comes out Nov. 1, 2019.
SHAZAM!
This trailer is just plain fun, with bright colors and goofy Zachary Levi (playing the titular Shazam, aka the adult co-star of the film). This first glimpse rightfully focuses on introducing the superhero, who isn’t as well known as his aquatic and Amazonian DC counterparts.
Aquaman: Lots of Tridents + Nicole Kidman
Jason Mamoa’s Aquaman got a much-anticipated official trailer drop. It’s got everything: punching through swords, emotional backstory, a quick swim through Atlantis, Nicole Kidman (!), and Amber Heard’s bright red hair. It’s a fun few minutes, easy to see the James Wan influence on the DCEU.
There was only one disappointment for fans in attendance:
