Many apologies, I know this is getting off-topic, but according to my handy-dandy French dictionary, there are two different terms, just like English. The French word for movie previews is "l'avant première". The word for trailer (cinema) is "bande-annonce".

  It would be interesting to see whether the French (who
  officially frown on les mots Anglo-Saxons) refer to 'les trailers' or 'les
  previews' but I don't have my dictionary to hand.
