Netflix to include more EVs in its TV shows and movies as part of new partnership with GM
Reading Time: 2 minutesNetflix and General Motors announced today that the streaming service will join the automaker’s ‘Everybody In’ campaign that aims to accelerate mass adoption of electric vehicles. As part of the partnership, the streaming service says it will increase the presence of EVs in Netflix-produced TV shows and movies, where relevant over the course of the next year, while also taking steps to enable more sustainable productions.
To kick off the new alliance, the two companies will air a new commercial during the Super Bowl on February 12 that will see Will Ferrell enter the world of some of Netflix’s popular shows and films, including ‘Army of the Dead’ and ‘Squid Game,’ in various GM EVs.
The automaker’s EVs will be also seen in select Netflix shows and films, including ‘Love Is Blind,’ ‘Queer Eye’ and ‘Unstable,’ which will feature the Chevrolet Bolt EUV, GMC HUMMER EV Pickup and Cadillac LYRIQ, respectively.
GM says the two companies don’t have an end date in mind for the alliance, and that the automaker is looking forward to working with Netflix as it builds up its advertising business. As for the Super Bowl ad, GM says it’s unclear if the two will partner on another similar ad in the future.
The automaker says it will educate show runners about EVs so that they can find a way to integrate them naturally into storylines in a way that doesn’t make them feel out of place when they appear in TV shows and movies.
Netflix has been incorporating EVs into the TV shows and movies that it produces over the past year. The streaming service included EVs from Hyundai and Audi in its content, along with EVs from GM, as well. Now, Netflix will have access to even more EVs as part of its new alliance with GM.
‘Entertainment has a huge impact on culture. We want to make EVs famous on streaming, small and silver screens to build an EV culture through storytelling that incorporates the experiences of driving and owning an EV,’ said GM Global Chief Marketing Officer Deborah Wahl in a press release. ‘Netflix is a great partner because of the company’s compelling storytelling, commitment to sustainability and track record of sparking conversations that shape cultural trends. We are united in creating a better, more sustainable future for our world as we bring everybody in on EVs.’
Netflix says it’s also planning to become more sustainable behind the camera within its productions by optimizing energy use, then electrifying it, and decarbonizing the rest.
