Hyundai’s all electric IONIQ 5 and the new Tucson will be featured in Sony Pictures’ upcoming film ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ which will see its theatrical release on the 17th of December 2021. Leading up to the film’s release, Hyundai has launched an integrated marketing program that includes a global TV commercial and a variety of digital promotional activities. The campaign stems from the global multi-picture promotional partnership that Hyundai inked with Sony Pictures in May 2020 to showcase the company’s human-centered mobility vision via product and technological innovations.
The commercial shows Spiderman hitching a 300-mile ride to New York with his best friend Ned Leeds played by Jacob Batalon in the all-electric IONIQ 5. A 30-second broadcast version will air as part of high-visibility television programs in the US, Europe, China, Russia and other global markets through January 2022.
