Movie buffs were treated to brand new trailers for blockbusters The Flash and Indiana Jones during Sunday night’s Super Bowl – both featuring Glasgow.

Several streets were transformed into the United States for filming of Indiana Jones in 2021, followed by Gotham City for the eagerly anticipated DC flick.

Antonio Banderas, Shaunette Renée Wilson and Toby Jones are also new additions to the cast, with John Rhys-Davies reprising his role of Sallah from 1989’s Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

Another shot follows a chase through Glasgow city centre’s streets, as an American-style police car flies through the air.

Superhero The Flash, played by Ezra Miller, teams up with two Batmans in the Super Bowl trailer, played by Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton – both of whom have starred as Batman previously.
