REGINA – If Deadpool was born in Regina and Wolverine was born in Alberta, it’s a classic Saskatchewan vs/and Alberta matchup that Tim Hortons is making the most of.
Tim Hortons and Ryan Reynolds have teamed up to celebrate the release of Marvel Studios’ “Deadpool & Wolverine” in theatres July 26
Whether it’s your favourite coffee or not, it’s definitely a Canadian flavour, and Tim Hortons says it is excited to be teaming up with Marvel Studios Canada and Ryan Reynolds to celebrate the launch of the most-anticipated movie of the summer.
To mark Reynold’s arrival in Canada for a special screening of the movie Tuesday in Toronto, Tims launched a video on Tim Hortons TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube pages, featuring Deadpool relaxing with a Tims coffee after his movie’s shoot wrapped.
“We were thrilled to work with Marvel Studios Canada and Ryan on this video and to be a part of the Canadian launch of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine,’” said Hope Bagozzi, Chief Marketing Officer for Tim Hortons.
“Like Tims, this movie is so Canadian in so many ways – the Deadpool character is from Saskatchewan and Wolverine is from Alberta, and the movie is directed by Montreal-native Shawn Levy – and we all thought we could have some fun bringing Canada’s favourite coffee and Canada’s favourite Super Hero together.”
Tim Hortons is sponsoring Tuesday night’s Canadian special screening of “Deadpool & Wolverine” in Toronto.
“Marvel Studios’ ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is the most anticipated Super Hero team-up ever and the same can be said about this collaboration,” said Quincy Kelman, VP of Marketing for Walt Disney Studios Canada.
“This special team-up of Canada’s iconic coffee and Canada’s iconic talent, filmmaker and characters is the perfect blend.”
Marvel Studios’ “Deadpool & Wolverine” opens exclusively in theatres this Friday. Tickets are on sale now.
