Don't know why he would. The plot doesn't seem relevant to him.

We know Broly's in the movie and there are theories floating around that the Granolah arc may lead directly into this one, so there's a slim chance.

He could show up to show off his new training skills with Goku, and he end up fighting alongside Gohan and the others against the new RR Army.

I think Gohan's bang has more story to tell than the series itself. Here it is again, but Gohan will lose the bang tomorrow.

Vegeta with Majin Buu saga outfit... That's the kind of "nostalgia" I like to see it (though he shouldn't have come back to wear the armor to begin with). Give me proper teenagers Goten and Trunks, as well as kid Marron now. Bra should appear a bit older too.
And Optimus was wrong!

This is freaking cool. I love the composition, I love Gohan’s look - the bang, the hair, the muscles, the gi, the black wristbands!

The renders look absolutely incredible to the point I thought this was a Toriyama drawing on first impact.

I am hyped for what they will shown us. Hopefully we will get design sheets for Gohan, Goku and Vegeta and a true trailer.

Poster's cool, but I am just relieved that Gohan will have at least a minimally important role in the film

Neat poster.

Still not sold in the movie at all though. Gonna need WAY more context before I'm even mildly interested.

Seriously, all I need now is teenage Goten and Trunks (preferably with their EOZ looks) and I'm golden.

God damn it, I love every single thing I know about this movie so far besides the fact that it's CGI.

Definitely liking that poster. I like how everyone is doing the pose of their signature attack.

Nice to see Gohan back with his old outfit and the bang. I kinda hate his newer design in Super.

Poster looks great. I like the changes to Gohan's gi color. Turns out that bratty-looking kid from the limo wants to be a super hero...

Finally, manga-continuity Cell Games gi Adult Gohan in a movie!

Manga continuity +1

Hopefully this means we'll get to see it in the games now, maybe with the team attacks he did with Piccolo for the Moro arc.

Honestly, that alone makes me happy. It always annoyed me that Super went back to his Cell arc look.

Gohan looks great. Combining his Piccolo gi with the bang is a cool choice, and probably makes this my favorite Super design of his.

I've no idea what this whole movie is about, still, but I look forward to seeing more.
Scores I've given the DBS manga arcs (and movies):

So it looks like there are some more heroes of justice running around. You may call that a development of bringing in such-minded individuals to counter the Z Fighter's classical fun-shonen "let's have fun fighting strong dudes".

I like the GTH on Pan's shirt. It can mean Go to Hell or Give Them Hell.
"Don't take pleasure in destruction!" / "I will not let you destroy my world!"
A true hero goes beyond not the limits of power, but the limits that divide countries and people.
