Nike has released 'You Can’t Stop Us', the third film in its campaign of the same name, which debuts to coincide with the NBA’s return. Narrated by Megan Rapinoe, the spot celebrates sport as a source of inspiration. Its action shares a dynamic split screen series detailing 36 pairings of athletes and relating the kinetic movement of one sport to another. Developed through research of more than 4,000 pieces of footage, the resulting montage underscores commonalities shared by athletes around the world. Closed gyms and empty stadiums haven't stopped athletes from pushing forward and using their platforms to help create change. Through those actions, sport shows us what an equal playing field looks like, and reminds us that a better future is possible. Created by Wieden+Kennedy Portland, Pulse Films director Oscar Hudson brings his trademark technical talents to bear on the 90-second film, deftly weaving archive footage into something new and unique.
