Liquid Death x Rebel Moon's Mandatory Beverage of the Motherworld Commercial dropped just ahead of the Super Bowl, playfully poking fun at some of the predictable tropes that usually show up in Big Game beer ads.
The spot set in the sci-fi universe of Rebel Moon is complete with fields of grain, manual labor and cans being cracked open—but not in the usual way. In the spirit of Rebel Moon, Liquid Death insists, "We are not at all being forced at blaster-point by the Motherworld’s army to bring you this message."
Directed by Zack Snyder’s son Eli Snyder, this spot also precedes Rebel Moon Part 2, set to be released in theaters come spring.
