In anticipation of New Zealand's 2019 rugby season and the upcoming Rugby World Cup, Air New Zealand has launched a new 'Air All Blacks' safety video. The comedic video shows a discussion behind the scenes of a newly established airline trying to develop the brand's safety video. According to Air New Zealand, the "video is a futuristic take on two iconic Kiwi brands coming together to show the world just how much rugby is in its DNA."
The video featured a number of notable celebrities including Suits actor Rick Hoffman, New Zealand actor Cliff Curtis, All Blacks head coach Steve Hansen, captain Kieran Read and players Sam Cane, Anton Lienert-Brown and Ryan Crotty.
