Part of a series of articles on the
Rebuild of Evangelion
movie series

Evangelion 2.0 is the working title for the second film in the Rebuild of Evangelion movie series. It will premiere in Japan on June 27, 2009. Specific plot details are unknown at this time.

Trailer with Rebuild 1.0

A trailer for the second Rebuild film appeared after the credits of the first Rebuild film. Amusingly, its structured exactly like the "next episode on Evangelion" segments that ended each episode of the original series, including the same musical theme and a voice-over by Misato.

We are told to expect Eva-04, Evangelion Unit-03 (Bardiel) is briefly seen, a close-up of Asuka Langley Soryu is briefly shown, as well as Evangelion Unit-02 being air-dropped into battle (perhaps against Israfel like in the original series). Shots are shown of what could either be Eva-04 exploding or a flashback to Second Impact. Then several cryptic shots are shown of multiple vaguely humanoid glowing white figures and the text "ADAMS" is flashed on the screen (all text is flashed in Latin letters), followed by "Lilin+?". Brief shots are also shown of a "Provisional Eva-05" (not a Mass Production Eva), and the one-eyed Eva-06. It is said that Eva-06 and its pilot (presumably Kaworu, seen wearing a plug suit) will descend from the Moon.

Finally, a new character is seen from behind, while looking at multiple giant glowing pink crucifixes: another shot from the front reveals the new character's face from the eyes-up, revealing her to be a brown haired girl wearing glasses (Named Mari according to the Petite Eva @ School DS game; she may be a new pilot). The trailer ends with Misato promising (just as in the early episodes of the original series), "...and of course...more fanservice!".
