This year’s spots for Hefty Ultra Strong star John Cena. The brand has come to be known for its witty humor and clever ads. John Cena is the ultimate representation of benefits including strength and cost savings, and the latest work is no different thanks to his charm, likeability and power — both on screen and physically.

"John Cena is already synonymous with strength - like our product - but we enjoyed the challenge of delivering a price message in a variety of ways that could connect with, and entertain our consumers,” Karen Goodman, group creative director, Havas Chicago. “We wanted to continue to push the narrative of how John could show up not only in broadcast but in social channels, understanding the importance of mobile first content that feels native.”
