Real Trailer, Fake Movie
(aka: Fake Movie Real Trailer)

"When night falls, a new hero rises. The night belongs to the monkey. Night Monkey."
Spider-Man: Far From Homenote 

"In a World… where trailers are made for movies that will never exist..."

The show's great. You've seen every episode and bought the DVD collection. And there, tucked away in the extras, is the Holy Grail: the trailer for the movie.

But something's not quite right. Perhaps the trailer gives a 1999 release date, and it's already 2007. Perhaps the characters in the trailer are parodies of themselves. Perhaps?

Perhaps it's a spoof. The movie isn't going to be made, and there was never any intention of making it; it was just the production crew having a bit of fun.

Never mind. At least the trailer's funny — we hope.

This is the Logical Extreme of Never Trust a Trailer — while that trope is about trailers misrepresenting various portions of a real film, this is about a trailer lying about an entire work. That being said... sometimes the trailer is so well-received that people actually make the movie.

It's not uncommon for such trailers to turn into a "No Talking or Phones" Warning by the end. Compare Trailer Spoof, which is for a real movie, just not the one you thought it was.


Intentional Spoofs:

    open/close all folders 

    Advertising 
  • Falling in Lamb was an Australian commercial from a few years back, advertising lamb. It was short-lived, though, possibly due to the number of calls to local theatres enquiring about the release date of this new romantic comedy.
  • Lucky Star (no, not the anime), starring Benicio Del Toro. There has to be more than one person who saw it repeatedly on TV and never realized it was a car commercial.
  • There was a trailer for an excellent sounding movie playing in a local movie theatre, but it is disappointing to find out it's just an anti-dandruff shampoo ad.
  • There's a whole series of fake trailers used by the AMC theater chain, to warn audiences to pipe down and turn off their personal electronics. Each one opens as expected for its genre (Wuxia flick, Disney Talking Animal cartoon, etc), only to be derailed when a cell phone rings, distracting the characters at some critical moment. Hilarity Ensues.
    • Speaking of silencing your cell phone, a policy shown in Israel movie theaters called "Fatal Call" starts out like a movie trailer, but you know from the beginning, since it takes place in a movie theater. The trailer contains a girl who is eating popcorn when her cell phone rings, and a voice from the phone says "Sarah! You shouldn't have answered! You should have left your cell phone off!" Then, Sarah chokes on her popcorn. Ah...don't you just love happy endings?
  • Scarlet looked like ads for a slick, spy-fi Spiritual Successor to Alias. It was an ad for a TV series, as in a series of TV's made by LG. Note a lot of the dialogue, such as "Putting her in every home on the planet", and saying "She's gonna change TV."
  • Geico made a trailer for a fake reality show titled Tiny House, about a couple living in a house that was built too small.
  • Connecting Flights, a holiday Rom Com Chick Flick that checks off every trope in the book in the span of about 20 seconds, only for the stinger to reveal that it's really an ad for Sears's line of appliances.
  • Cineplex theatres in Canada has a trailer for a time-travel movie that looks like a bigger budget version of Primer. The protagonist has to travel back in time to meet his girlfriend at a sold-out movie. Quote: "If you're not there tonight, I won't be here tomorrow." OR you could order tickets online.
  • Here's an action/comedy thriller starring the M&M's Spokecandies!... except it turns out to be yet another "turn your cell phone off" ad. There's a TV version of this commercials where the M&Ms, instead of being mad at the audience member for interrupting the movie with their cell phone, they're mad at the narrator for nonchalantly mentioning the movie they're starring in isn't even real!
  • Ford made a pretty epic one for their Summer Spectacular.
  • Similar to the M&Ms one, GEICO has one with a "No Talking or Phones" Warning in one of the "it's what you do" spots where a secret agent is chased up to a roof where there's a waiting helicopter, only to a phone call that turns out to be his mother, rambling on about some squirrels in the attic and asking if he's at a zumba class because there's so much noise.
    Announcer: If you're a mom, you call at the worst time. It's what you do.
  • This trailer, shown in UK cinemas in 2019, appears to be for a film adaptation of The Wind in the Willows, based visually on the Cosgrove Hall series, and for the first couple of scenes, closely following the book. Then Toad gets a motorbike instead of a motorcar, and suddenly the animals are having to deal with pollution and habitat loss. It's actually an awareness campaign by the Wildlife Trusts.
  • This trailer for Dance With Your Feet, a fictional film by Noire Pictures, plays out like a real movie trailer, until the Energizer Bunny shows up at the end. It was reportedly shown in real movie theaters at the time as part of Energizer's ad campaign.
    • This one starts out as a trailer for a TV series called "H.I.P.S", about an all-female team of motorcycle cops, until the bunny shows up.
    • And this one starts out as an advert for a documentary on the fictional Adventure Channel about the underwater world, until the bunny appears wearing scuba gear.
  • This ad from the BBFC looks like a trailer for a movie named Unknown. It's actually an advert about film certificates and content.
  • Taco Bell has its annual, sometimes semi-annual, adverts for its Nacho Fries, all of which are fake movie trailers produced by "Live Más Productions" (a reference to Taco Bell's slogan), and each of them is an Affectionate Parody of a different movie genre.
    • "Web of Fries" is about an unnamed family man (Josh Duhamel) who gets entagled in a deeply-rooted conspiracy about Nacho Fries involving the evil corporation "Big Fries", putting the lives of him and his family's at risk.
      • Its sequel, "Web of Fries II: Franchise Wars" takes place in a dystopian future where Big Fries has taken over the world, where a young woman (the daughter of the first movie's protagonist) joins a resistance force to get revenge for her father's death, only to find out that her father is alive...at least for a limited time only.
    • "Chasing Gold" follows Zack Collins (Darren Criss), an ordinary kid who loves singing about Nacho Fries and becomes a star after his gift is discovered by a talent agent. Zack enjoys his stardom, at least until he finds out that it's only for a limited time, and, unable to accept his impending doom, begins his downward spiral.
    • "Retrieval" is about Danny Conrad (James Marsden), who is forced to leave his daughter behind in order to go through a dangerous mission through space after the Nacho Fries disappear into an alternate dimension.
    • "The Craving" follows Taylor (Joe Keery), a young man who investigates some paranormal activity happening in the small town of Bella Vista involving Nacho Fries, who are supposedly gone. As it turns out, the Nacho Fries are back and with a vengeance, as Taylor begins to be haunted by them and struggles to resist the craving. Meanwhile, his girlfriend Jamie (Sarah Hyland) tries to figure out what's happening to Taylor and rescue him.
    • "Fry Force" is an anime set in a world where giant monsters attack every time Taco Bell's nacho fries come back. When Rei’s brother Kosuke is taken by the monsters, Rei must push through her hunger and lead the Fry Force, an elite squad of mecha pilots to keep the monsters at bay. But upon finding Kosuke, and learning that he’s joined the side of the monsters after being consumed by a primal hunger for Nacho Fries, Rei must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice in order to save Nacho Fries and the world.
    • "Fry Again" is about Vanessa, who is trapped in a perpetual "Groundhog Day" Loop, and uses it as a chance to indulge in hedonism and eat Nacho Fries, which will never leave due to the time loop. However, things take a turn for the weird when a mysterious man finds out about it. Now, Vanessa and her friend will have to stay ahead of whoever is chasing them. This ad is notable for being based entirely off of fan tweets, leading it to become the campaign's Formula-Breaking Episode due to its combining of three distinct genres.
  • Before Super Bowl LII, there were trailers for Dundee: The Son of a Legend Returns Home circulating around, featuring Aussie stars such as Russell Crowe, Chris Hemsworth, the original Crocodile Dundee star Paul Hogan, Hugh Jackman, and Margot Robbie. They were actually the setup for commercials for Tourism Australia, the country's official tourism promotion agency.
  • An ad for E-Trade in the late 90s featured a fictional trailer/ad for Blow'd Up, a So Bad, It's Good action film with Anna Nicole Smith as a Barb Wire style heroine and George Takei as a cackling, hammy Mad Bomber. A man on his couch sees this and decides to use E-Trade to dump his stocks in the studio before the film premieres (he did the same in another ad, dumping his shares in a pharmaceutical company when he sees an ad for their new medicine with all sorts of bizarre side effects).
  • This trailer shown in French cinemas in 2013, appears to be for a CGI feature about a bird meeting a bee, and several insects flying in to watch something. It's actually a trailer to promote the annual three-day "Printemps du Cinéma" event organised by the Fédération national des cinémas français, that offers reduced cinema tickets.
  • "Before Our Eyes" starts out as a trailer for a gritty Kitchen Sink Drama starring Olivia Colman and Michael Lester, about a retired lawyer who takes on the case of a poor single mother wanting justice after her baby daughter dies from the inadequate conditions of the temporary housing she lived in. After the title card rolls at the end, Colman abruptly breaks the fourth wall to reveal that this situation is happening in real life, and that this is a PSA meant to raise awareness about the UK's poverty and homelessness crisis rather than a trailer for a TV series.

    Anime & Manga 
  • One omake for Blue Seed was a kaiju movie parody staring the cast. The English version was even done with odd tone variations and poor lip-syncing like early dubbed films, capped off with informing viewers it was all a big lie.
  • Elf Princess Rane is a two-episode OAV that ends with trailers for the completely nonexistent third and fourth episodes.
  • A similar fate had befallen a number of short OAV series, especially during the 80s and 90s: The material produced was intended to be a pilot for a longer work, but the series was canned before it ever got off the ground. While not all of them necessarily had trailers produced advertising the dead-in-the-water series, see also the "in the next episode" bit advertising "Knight of Lemon" at the end of "Knights of Ramune" (which is promptly followed by a note that the series had been cancelled).
  • The second episode of Itsudatte My Santa! has a trailer for the third episode, featuring Mai, MaiMai and Shirley living with Santa, a cooking competition between Mai and Shirley, and a sleigh and reindeer which turn into a Humongous Mecha to battle a presumably possessed Miss Noel. The trailer is revealed to be fake at the end.
  • Magical Girl Pretty Sammy The Motion Picture: The God Boys VS. Magical Girls was included as one of the extras on the final Magical Project S LaserDisc and DVD. It had many fans believing that a movie was forthcoming, and resulted in a petition (unsuccessful) to get the movie made. What in anime doesn't it parody? "Oshioki desuu, haaaii!"
  • My-Otome had a fake trailer on the DVDs for the My-HiME movie. Many people on AnimeSuki and Wikipedia don't realize that it's a joke and keep asking when the movie will be released despite the release date being listed as 20006 [sic].
  • The last page of the second volume of the hentai doujinshi Take on Me is intended to look like an advertisement for an anime adaptation. Far, far too many people have asked where they can find this movie, when it is coming out, etc. It's not, it's just the artist mind-screwing the audience.
  • The seventh DVD special (NSFW) of Rumbling Hearts was a trailer of series' Remake IN SPACE WITH GUNDAMS!
  • Similarly, the fifth DVD special of Shattered Angels was a trailer for The True Kyoshiro To Towa No Sora, a remake of the original series with a grander sci-fi plot and much more Pseudo-Romantic Friendship (with Kuu and Setsuna as the Official Couple). They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot, actually...
  • Hyakko does this in episode six of the series, giving the audience a preview that has, among other things, an army of Mecha-Torakos, Evil!Suzume and a midair battle between Torako and her brother. It's also completely fake.
  • The first volume of The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi-chan contains a preview of a manga dealing with Itsuki's becoming an esper and joining the Organization... except Kyon disillusions him next page with a "Yeah, that trailer was a fake, Haruhi-chan is a gag-manga".
  • The final episode of Seitokai Yakuindomo includes a preview for a Magical Girl show called Magical Mako, claiming that it will take over their timeslot the following week. Takatoshi then pulls out the TV schedule and points out that they're really be replaced by the second season of Hakuouki.
  • Subverted with Gintama, with the trailer for the Benizakura arc movie. It first shows up in the third season, when the characters admit that the trailer is fake. During the next season, the trailer is played again and the characters say it is actually coming out. Played straight with the second trailer, where the trailer is played and Gin follows up by telling us it is all a lie.
  • The last volume of Carnival Phantasm included an animation for the original concept of Fate/stay night, entitled Fate/Prototype. It was basically this trope.
  • The special edition of the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha The MOVIE 2nd A's Blu-Ray/DVD included two Omake showing hypothetical shows featuring the Wolkenritter: Mahou Kazokunote  Lyrical Wolken and Iryou Shoujonote  Medical Shamal, which are broadcasted in BHK and other Belkan and Mid-Childan channels.
  • The Stinger at the end of Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie is a trailer for Lupin III vs Kaitou Kid, with a 2020 release date. Then Conan appears and tells to the audience that it's not real.
  • A New Year's 2017 promotional stream for the Fate part of the Nasuverse had a trailer for an anime adaptation of Fate/koha-ace, a gag spinoff, play for about fifteen seconds before abruptly getting shoved aside by Rider, who explains that it's a fake announcement. Okita Souji and Oda Nobunaga, the stars of the fake anime, are understandably displeased by this development.
  • Dragonaut: The Resonance has a Bonus Episode which serves as a trailer for a High School AU, where Howling Star is a delinquent who falls in love with Toa, and everyone else has random roles. The dragons are somehow still involved.
  • Episode 8 of the Ōkami-san anime opens and closes with scenes from Ringo's take on "The Three Little Pigs", where the pigs are extra chubby terrorists who challenge our heroes to Cooking Duels in an over-the-top fashion. It's only when Taro turns off the screen that we find out it was a video.
  • The Japan Animator Expo short Iconic Field is shot like a trailer for a feature film.

  • A trailer for the fake movie Buggery On The High Seas plays in the middle of the Cheech & Chong sketch "Pedro And Man At The Drive-In" from the Los Cochinos album.

  • Studio C has a trailer for a movie called Treasure Hike in the sketch, "Movie Trailer That Spoils Everything." It comes out Maytember 16 and the voiceover says that there's a sequel being filmed in Morocco.
  • Saturday Night Live:
  • To confirm the return of Gustavo "Gus" Fring for season 3 of Better Call Saul, AMC did a promo in the guise of a Los Pollos Hermanos commercial.
  • Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: About midway through Season 4, John buys at auction a series of presidential wax figures, including one of Warren G. Harding. After discussing how truly fascinating Harding's life and career were, he states that there really should be a movie about it, and demonstrates this with a trailer for one, starring Michael McKean, Anna Kendrick, Laura Linney, and... the wax figure as the president.
    • This gets followed up on at the end of the season, as The Stinger for the season finale is a teaser for an action movie wherein Tom Hanks assembles Harding and the other wax presidents as a heroic dream team to save the world.
    • This is revisited at the end of Season 5, and combined with another joke from earlier in the season (about how John bought Russel Crowe's jock strap from Cinderella Man at a prop auction), to create a trailer for another action movie. This one features Armie Hammer assembling the wax presidents (all portrayed as archetypical heist movie characters) in order to steal the jock strap. This includes several chase and fight scenes as they go up against Mooks that are working for Russel Crowe himself.

  • Homestar Runner:
    • One short was a fake trailer for a movie based on their game Peasant's Quest. According to their website, there already is a full-length Peasant's Quest movie: "its 'full length' is three minutes" (the length of the trailer).
    • See also the Strong Bad Email "narrator", where Strong Bad narrates the lives of the residents of Free Country, USA as though they were movie trailers: Homestar and Marzipan are a couple torn apart by a novelty chef's hat, an argument between Coach Z and Bubs over napkins apparently leads to the fall of an empire, and Strong Sad gets a dead goose thrown at him.
    • Discussed in SBEmail 206, when Strong Bad is listing various ways that the Internet has ruined April Fool's Day, and lists fake movie trailers (including one for Dangeresque 4/2=6) as one of them.
  • How It Should Have Ended: Their take on how The Terminator should have ended quickly becomes a trailer for a crossover with Back to the Future.
  • Arfenhouse The Movie 3: Kill Billy. The actual third Arfenhouse movie was a perfunctory Take That! to fans who demanded it really be made.
  • Red vs. Blue showed this for Youtube's Geek Week.
    • A trailer for a sequel was released a few years later. It goes from the same kind of dramatic action movie as the first one, to a buddy cop movie, to a romantic movie, to a Christmas movie, to a terminal disease movie, to a zombie flick.
    • The final trailer in this trilogy is done in live-action cosplay, and apparently stars expensive celebrities.
  • The Mighty Grand Piton is an animated short about a Humongous Mecha in the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia is presented as if it were an actual trailer for a film or TV series.

  • Escape from Zircon: Visitors to the Museum of Science and Industry's Action! An Adventure in Moviemaking exhibition could step onto a real sound stage and participate in filming scenes for a trailer for Escape from Zircon, a thriller about two hapless tourists who are mistaken for spies by agents of a nefarious organization headed by the mastermind Zircon. While Escape from Zircon doesn't exist as a feature length film, museum visitors could take home a real DVD copy of the trailer they'd helped film.

  • On 30 Rock, Tracy Jordan once made a trailer for his proposed biopic of Thomas Jefferson... with him playing all the parts.

  • Supernatural has a trailer for "Hell Hazers II: The Reckoning" in the episode "Hollywood Babylon."
  • The Daily Show advertises several fake products on a regular basis, including Jon magazine and the Daily Show Home Game.

  • A Bill Nye the Science Guy episode on the Earth's Crust had a trailer for a kid cop show called "Johnny Crust."
  • How I Met Your Mother had one of these where a trailer for The Wedding Bride was mentioned on the show and the full trailer was released online here. The movie describes Ted's failed relationship with Stella however from the somewhat skewed mind of her ex-boyfriend, now-husband, Tony. Ted in one episode goes to see this movie more than once and, at one point, acts out something similar to it to his date while he is in the movie theatre.
  • Stargate SG-1:
    • The 100th episode, "Wormhole X-Treme!" took its name from a show based on the team, which the Air Force is letting go forward to give the SGC Plausible Deniability (assuming it stays on the air).

    • In the two-hundredth episode, titled "200", the team is giving advice on the production of a Wormhole X-Treme! movie adaptation.

Bonus points for actually getting Isaac Hayes to do the narration.
  • On the Reality Show Scream Queens (2008), one challenge each season had the contestants starring in a trailer for a fake campy horror film in order to test their acting skills.

It's filmed in black-and-white, set in a post-war (World War II?) era and revolves around the relationship of a pale-skinned brunette and a Loveable Rogue. The fact that it mentions that this is the third installment of a nonexistent trilogy turns this into a Foregone Conclusion whenever you watch it again (and again, and again), but some fans desperately yearn for Defictionalization.

Zenshu - A Tale of Perishing

One of the trailers of Zenshu is a fake movie trailer of A Tale of Perishing, the anime film that the series' protagonist, Natsuko, finds herself isekai'd into. And to say that the original film is bleak is a huge understatement.

How well does it match the trope?
