Whether you like comic books or not, the movie still looks like it's going to be at least a great action flick. And how else could it be when you have people who can fly, run at the speed of light, command the sea currents or who, you know, can do all these things because they're Superman?
Busy taking over the North American market, Mercedes-Benz couldn't afford to miss a glorious occasion such as this, so it immediately jumped on board. But since Iron Man already drives an Audi and he's busy doing things in another universe anyway, how could the German brand squeeze its products in without being too obvious or annoying?
Well, we haven't seen the film, so we don't really know what to expect there, but we have watched this ad, and we'd say Mercedes has done a pretty good job. Featuring some of the cast members- including Israeli actress Gal Gadot who plays Wonder Woman in the film - the commercial shows two of the company's prototypes - the production-ready E-Class Cabriolet and the never-to-be-produced Mercedes-AMG Vision Gran Turismo.
Mercedes has even released an extended making-of video showing behind the scenes footage, more sequences from the movie as well as short interviews with the actors. There's even an interesting piece of trivia regarding the Vision Gran Turismo concept and Ben Affleck, the actor who plays Bruce Wayne/Batman.
Because of Ben's size (6'4"), the team had to recreate the concept car and expand it by 10 percent. It also meant the team had to think of a fitting interior design since the original did not feature one. It's not exactly the first silver Batmobile, but it's damn near close.
