Jamie Foxx Stars in New BetMGM TV Campaign for 2024 Football Season
BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, is premiering a new football season television commercial series featuring Jamie Foxx. Throughout the entertaining campaign, Foxx displays his comedic range with several character impersonations showcasing BetMGM’s brand DNA: born in Las Vegas, rooted in hospitality and entertainment, and focused on treating its customers right. Filmed in Los Angeles and directed by Brian Billow, the new spots will air nationwide in prime time and continue to run on multiple platforms throughout the upcoming season.
“I always love creating fun content with my BetMGM family when football season comes around. We had a blast filming these spots and showing the swagger of BetMGM,” Jamie Foxx said.
The spots highlight the premier experience that BetMGM provides to its customers. The first spot in the series, titled “Anthem”, stars Foxx portraying a variety of characters as they go through mixed emotions on game day. Through fans’ highs and lows, Foxx demonstrates how BetMGM treats customers with hotel suites and other real-world benefits redeemable through the sports betting operator’s rewards program and exclusive connection to MGM Resorts International’s destinations and Marriott Bonvoy.
A second spot features Foxx as a sportscaster explaining BetMGM’s new “Second Chance” promotion which allows anyone who places a straight bet on a player to score the first touchdown of the game to automatically win back their wager in cash if that player scores on the second touchdown of the game. A cast of characters – all played by Foxx – excitedly question the possibilities of the new offer which is exclusively available at BetMGM for the professional football season (Second Chance paid via withdrawable unrestricted funds).
In the series’ third spot, Foxx highlights how BetMGM makes bettors feel welcome with a special offer allowing new BetMGM customers to earn up to $1500 in bonus bets if their first bet loses (offer not available in NV, PR and ON; bonus bets are non-withdrawable and expire in seven days).
“Jamie Foxx is a rare talent who can captivate an audience in any forum. This campaign, in partnership with Highdive, taps into his confidence and range, and will both entertain and inform viewers about BetMGM’s exciting new features for football season,” Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer at BetMGM, said.
“We’re thrilled to unveil our latest campaign with BetMGM featuring the incredibly talented Jamie Foxx. Our aim was to showcase how BetMGM ‘treats you right,’ and Jamie’s performance brilliantly captures the campaign’s core message,” Mark Gross, Co-Founder and Co-Chief Creative Officer of Highdive, said.
