Today Nike Football released part three of its #riskeverything campaign. The film "The Last Game" is a five-minute animated feature starring some of the world's greatest footballers on a mission to save football from the hands of a villainous mastermind, The Scientist via Wieden + Kennedy Portland and Passion.
"The idea behind "The Last Game" is to show the world that Nike, like any true lover of football, believes that the game should be brilliant, daring and bold. Having the confidence to take risks is absolutely vital in football. Imagine a world without the brilliance of Cristiano Ronaldo, the acrobatics of Zlatan or the wizardry of Neymar," said Nike's Chief Marketing Officer Davide Grasso.
The film features the likes of: Ronaldo, Zlatan, Neymar Jr, Luiz and Rooney.
