The official trailer for My Spy: The Eternal City (2025) kicks off with a sweeping view of Rome, the Eternal City, its ancient architecture contrasted by modern life. The camera zooms in on a covert operation led by JJ (Dave Bautista), the tough but lovable CIA operative from the first film, now navigating the bustling streets of Italy. JJ has been assigned to a new mission, but this time the stakes are higher than ever, and the location adds a layer of excitement to the mix.
JJ is not alone, though. Sophie (Chloe Coleman), now a teenager, is back as his tech-savvy and cunning partner-in-crime. The trailer opens with their reunion, full of the same witty banter and humorous moments that made their dynamic a hit in the original. Sophie, now more skilled and confident, insists on joining JJ in his mission to track down an international art thief who is threatening to disrupt world peace by selling stolen artifacts tied to a dangerous secret.
As JJ tries to keep things professional, the duo quickly becomes entangled in the world of high-stakes espionage, navigating ancient ruins, glamorous parties, and tight city streets. The trailer highlights several action-packed sequences, including a rooftop chase across Rome’s historic landmarks, with JJ leaping between buildings, and Sophie guiding him through an earpiece while hacking into security systems.
In a comedic twist, JJ’s old nemesis, played by Kristen Schaal, resurfaces as a fellow agent who now works as an unlikely ally, adding even more humor and chaos to the mix. Their teamwork is rocky at best, filled with bickering and slapstick moments, especially when they find themselves in a high-speed Vespa chase through crowded markets.
The main villain, a smooth and menacing international criminal portrayed by Antonio Banderas, is revealed, making his entrance at a lavish masquerade ball where he plans to auction off the stolen artifact. His character exudes charm and danger, providing a worthy opponent for JJ.
The trailer ends with an explosive finale, showing JJ and Sophie narrowly escaping a collapsing Roman ruin, followed by a humorous scene of them bickering over who saved whom. The title My Spy: The Eternal City flashes on the screen, promising an action-packed, heartwarming, and comedic spy adventure in one of the world’s most iconic cities.
