No greater captive audience exists than the crowd who waited for over ten hours just to enter Hall H for the Warner Bros. San Diego Comic-Con presentation. The studio used this advantage to sell the new trailer for The Man From U.N.C.L.E.. This new trailer arrived with a pre-taped speech from director Guy Ritchie, who was on location in Scotland. Ritchie knew the drill. The 5-minute long trailer debuted to “mild applause” from a crowd waiting for their main course: Batman.
Fans give 8 minutes of "U.N.C.L.E." footage mild applause. Could be a tough sell for WB in August #SDCC
