Aim of the Partnership

It’s pretty common for film franchises to partner with specific car brands that will highlight their models or projects in specific scenes for the purpose of product placement. Hyundai and Sony Pictures have worked together on recent films and have opted to collaborate again for the “Spider-Verse” sequel. As part of the project, Hyundai will run a worldwide marketing campaign that will feature the animated Spiderman with Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6, in both online and offline media.

Earlier Collaborations

As stated above, these two have worked together fairly recently. In “Spider-Man: No Way Home”, which was released in 2021, the movie starred the Ioniq 5 and Tucson SUV. The second collaboration was in 2022 for another film, “Uncharted”, starring Tom Holland, and the movie featured the Tucson Beast concept SUV.
