Super Bowl LI isn't only all about football. Movie fans tuned in to FOX on Sunday night, February 5, as a lot of new movie trailers made a splash during the commercial breaks. The movies included Scarlett Johansson-starring "Ghost in the Shell" and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's upcoming pic "Baywatch".

Paramount Picture releases "Ghosts in the Shell" Super Bowl spot, showing off an android Johansson fighting against a cyberpunk in Tokyo. It is packed with plenty of cyberpunk action scenes in which Johansson, who plays a leader of Public Security Section 9, fights against cyber criminals and hackers. She is seen jumping through glass and wielding a gun in a chaotic scene.

"Ghost in the Shell" also stars Michael Pitt, Juliette Binoche, Lasarus Ratuere and Japanese comedian/actor Takeshi Kitano. Directed by Rupert Sanders, the movie is slated for a March 31 release in the United States.

Dwayne Johnson's upcoming pic "Baywatch" ad also made an appearance in between passes and tackles. The new trailer opens with a voiceover saying, "While you're watching the game, they are watching the bay." One comedic scene features Zac Efron, who plays a rash recruit named Matt Brody, revealing his American flag-themed bathing suit. It prompts Johnson to ask, "Wow, wow, what are you wearing?" Efron quickly answers, "Freedom."

Johnson will play a forthright veteran lifeguard named Mitch Buchannon who goes head-to-head with Matt Brody. They will work together when the two discover that the beach is threatened by a criminal plot, though. Also starring in the movie adaptation of the 1990s' TV series of the same title are Priyanka Chopra, Kelly Rohrbach, Alexandra Daddario, Ilfenesh Hadera and Jon Bass. Director Seth Gordon ("Horrible Bosses") is serving behind the lens. "Baywatch" takes us to the beach this summer on May 26.
