Knockout advertising
Ladbrokes delivered a blockbuster advertising campaign straight out of Hollywood last year, with a world-first application of new CGI technology. Recreating the iconic running montage from the original Rocky film, with a Philadelphia backdrop, the original cast was digitally replaced with hundreds of modern sports people – horse riders, drag queens, dancers, gymnasts, as well as drummers and many, many others – setting a new record for the biggest character replacement in Hollywood history. Part of Ladbrokes’ ‘We Play Together’ campaign, Rocky brought Ladbrokes to a whole new audience.
