Couple goes from glum to glam in Wrigley’s Eclipse Chewy Mints ad

"I'm Ice Man"... "Don't be ridiculous"

Director Justin Reardon is behind the camera for a new campaign for Wrigley’s Eclipse Chewy Mints.

The Chew Your Way to Fresh campaign, which sees a couple morph from feeling down to feeling fresh, was created by DDB Sydney through production company Station.

The ad comes about a year after DDB created a spot for Wrigley’s in which a man frosts up a window after eating an Eclipse mint.

DDB’s planning director David Chriswick said: “This ad is once again the outcome of a desire to build more engaging brand experiences. Last year’s ‘Toll Booth’ spot got the ball rolling and this new work is a step forward again. The product is great and we’re all determined to make the brand as equally successful through distinctive advertising that people like to spend some time with.”

Chris Blayney, Wrigley marketing director added: “We’re excited to launch the new Chew Your Way to Fresh campaign. It continues the Eclipse brand’s tradition of unexpected and humourous advertising and introduces a new format that promises to bring new consumers into the Eclipse brand.”
