Jack the Giant Slayer 2 (unofficial title), starring Nicholas Hoult as Jack and Eleanor Tomlinson as Princess Isabelle, continues the adventures in the fantastical kingdom where giants roam the skies. In this action-packed sequel, the stakes are raised as Jack faces an even greater threat than before, delving deeper into the mythology of giants and their connection to the human world.
The trailer opens with Jack and Princess Isabelle ruling their kingdom peacefully, following the events of the first film.
The magical beanstalks have been destroyed, and the giants seemingly defeated. However, strange events begin to unfold—violent tremors shake the kingdom, and crops mysteriously wither. This marks the beginning of an ancient prophecy coming true: a new, more dangerous breed of giants, previously locked away in another dimension, are awakening.
The trailer reveals that these new giants, led by an ancient and malevolent giant king, have found a way to breach the barrier between worlds. Unlike the brutish giants from the first film, these new giants are highly intelligent, capable of magic, and bent on total domination. The trailer shows glimpses of their new leader, a fearsome figure adorned with ancient armor and wielding immense power.
Jack, once again thrust into the role of reluctant hero, is called upon to find a way to stop the invasion. Teaming up with Princess Isabelle and their loyal allies, they embark on a journey to uncover the secrets of the giants’ origin and how to defeat them. Along the way, they discover that the magical beans, thought to be extinct, still exist in secret, and that these new giants have their own version of the beanstalks, which allow them to traverse between worlds at will.
The middle of the trailer teases epic battle scenes, with the giants laying siege to human cities. Jack and Isabelle lead a resistance, but it becomes clear that brute force won’t be enough to stop the giants. They must find an ancient artifact, hinted to be a powerful weapon, capable of sealing the giants back in their dimension for good. This artifact, however, lies deep in the giants’ realm, requiring Jack and his team to scale a new, massive beanstalk to confront the giants head-on.
