CHICAGO Heineken is using James Bond's new leading lady, as well as actual sets and scenes from the upcoming film Quantum of Solace, in a global integrated campaign for the beer brand.
The partnership marks the fifth consecutive tie-in between the Dutch beer brand and the Bond series. The new ads will feature actress Olga Kurylenko, who plays the character Camille in Quantum of Solace, which will be released in the U.S. on Nov. 4. Support includes TV, cinema, digital, outdoor and POP outreaches in 40 countries. The execution, via TBWA, Amsterdam, will be akin to Heineken's TV spot for the 2006 release of Casino Royale, which featured actress Eva Green. She was in an elevator standing next to a waiter who was delivering a bottle of Heineken to Bond's hotel room.
The international premiere of the film in London on Oct. 31 will be preceded, depending on market, with radio promotions, sweepstakes and in-store programs. Part of the activation -- timed with local premieres for about six weeks -- will include a program with the working title: "Enter the World of Bond." G2, London, lead the digital and offline efforts to create the program.
"We've done diligence in 11 countries, in four continents, about consumer awareness, consumer relevance and fit," said Chris Carroll, Heineken's global manager, brand experience. "What we know is this Bond world, although not real, is highly aspirational. It does share brand values of being international, premium, quality and style with the Heineken brand very well. What we will do is try to let consumers have access to this world of Bond."
The campaign also will include a change in Heineken packaging appearing in stores by September. Carroll declined to elaborate. Previously, the brewer distributed Heineken aluminum bottles as part of a 2003 tie-in with Matrix Reloaded.
Quantum of Solace is in postproduction editing, so whether Heineken will appear in the film is not definite. But product placement aside, Heineken has been creating its own silver screen moments since it featured Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) clad in black leather in a spot that streamed on its own Web site and YouTube weeks before Matrix Reloaded opened in theaters. That campaign marked the beginning of Heineken's strategy of aligning with movie partners that provide not merely film clips, but also access to stars, movie sets and work collaboratively on the international front.

Why dont they have a Hooters ad with Judi Dench? They could have M wearing a Hooters T Shirt as Product Placement...
That's a particularly disturbing idea.
Almost as bad as the Ford product placement...

Are we going to see Dan on the campaign of "Veet"?
I think Dan would be more fitting with either a campaign for Durex or Melton Mowbray's Pork Pies.

I hate tie-ins like this. If we need to tie-in to a beer, why not seek out something unique to this movie and locations -- like a good beer from South America or even Mexico (like Pacifico -- a very good beer we used to drink in Mexico all the time). Introduce us to something. What's the crew drinking? I bet they discovered the best beer in Panama.
Okay, okay, I know it's Heinekin because they shell out a big money, so we shove it into our actresses hand and tell her to shill. But that green can is so oversold it could be Coca Cola for all I care, and if Denise Richards couldn't convince me to drink it, neither will Olga.

There's something really striking about the way she poses for photos. She's somehow manages to look better and better in each one.

I don't give a damn if the beer is Heineken, Strongbow or Budweiser! I just want her on bed!
