You can read my full recap of the marketing for Spies In Disguise at The Hollywood Reporter.
Online and Social
Not much of note on the movie’s official website, which is laid out in the usual Fox site template. I would have expected something more like a “turn yourself into a pigeon” photo upload feature or casual game or something else, but none of that is here.
Media and Press
Holland appeared on “Kimmel” in early December to talk about this movie as well as others. Other than that there doesn’t seem to have been a big press push for the film, maybe because both stars have been out promoting other projects very recently and this was deemed not worth the effort.
Overall
I’m honestly not sure who this is meant for or who’s supposed to be enticed by this campaign. It’s a mystery to me.
Picking Up the Spare
Another commercial came out just before Christmas that focused on the “Team Weird” theme that emerged late in the campaign. There were also videos of Smith and Holland experiencing an escape room of sorts and a new clip released as well.
A profile of the movie and its creators focused how it seeks to communicate inventive and non-violent solutions to problems for kids.
