BBDO NY Spoofs Action Flicks with New M&M'S Ad

Traktor shoots a timely spot ahead of The Academy Awards

M&M’S Chocolate Candies have been a staple in movie theater snack cases for decades. Now, they’re bringing the movies to television. 

Today, Mars Chocolate North America announced M&M’S Brand plans to showcase a humorous spoof of action movie trailers during the 2015 Academy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 22 on ABC.

The 30-second spot is designed as a mock movie preview, and highlights how watching movies is even better with M&M’S. The ad features all six of the M&M’S Brand “spokescandies” putting a delicious spin on classic action-movie scenes – Orange driving a runaway bus; Red interrogating an alleged criminal; Blue leaping from a burning building – in a manner that so closely resembles a movie trailer you might start to believe “M&M’S: The Movie” is coming to a theater near you.


Although this marks the television debut of the commercial, a similar treatment of the creative ran in cinemas nationwide throughout 2014. That version served as a “public service announcement” asking for audiences to please turn off their cell phones during the movie. 

Both the TV commercial and the cinema PSA were created by BBDO New York.
