PepsiCo Innovations Doritos Blaze And MTN DEW ICE® Make Advertising History With Joint Ad In Super Bowl LII

Morgan Freeman and #peterdinklage Bring One Minute of Epic Entertainment in New Ad

Jan 17, 2018

PURCHASE, N.Y.Jan. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Doritos Blaze and #mtndewice, two new #pepsico product innovations that recently hit store shelves nationwide, are coming together for a :60 in-game #superbowl LII advertisement on Feb. 4. The teaser video (watch here), released today, features award-winning actors Morgan Freeman for #mtndewice and Peter Dinklage for #doritosblaze intensely facing off. The advertisement marks the first time one company has advertised two of its trademarks back-to-back in one nationally televised #superbowl commercial.

Both brands are back in the #superbowl – Doritos returning after its successful 10-year run of the "Crash the Super Bowl" campaign that concluded at #superbowl 50, and MOUNTAIN DEW® returning after its wildly popular advertisement "Puppymonkeybaby," also in the 2016 game.

"This is a great example of the power of PepsiCo's #food and beverage portfolio coming to life for consumers on one of the world's largest stages," said Al Carey, chief executive officer, #pepsico North America. "Doritos and Mtn Dew go perfectly together, and both brands have passionate fan bases. We think consumers will love #doritosblaze and #mtndewice, as well as this engaging #superbowl ad."

Doritos Blaze, a bold new flavor that brings the heat, is the brand's next national offering that fires up the hot and spicy snack market, featuring a complex flavor and heat that builds as you crunch. MTN DEW ICE is a clear, refreshing, lemon-lime flavored DEW® with a splash of real juice that will keep DEW Nation charged.

Fans can watch the teaser video on the Doritos and Mtn Dew social channels, and follow the conversation online @Doritos and @MountainDew.
