Jeep® Brand's 'Groundhog Day' Named Best American Ad of the 21st Century

  • On February 2, 2020, during Super Bowl LIV, Jeep aired a 60-second "Groundhog Day" advertisement filmed in Woodstock, Illinois, featuring Bill Murray reprising his role as Phil Connors.
  • The commercial was the result of a collaboration led by Olivier Francois, who spent several years trying to connect with Murray, and they ultimately filmed it shortly before the Super Bowl broadcast.
  • Featuring Murray reprising Phil Connors and the Jeep Gladiator as a getaway vehicle, the ad creatively twisted the original 1993 film, winning USA Today's AdMeter contest and earning an Emmy nomination.
  • Campaign US held the inaugural Campaign Cup 2025 with 32 ads in 16 matchups, where the Jeep "Groundhog Day" commercial defeated Betty White's Snickers ad to be named Best American Ad of the 21st Century.
  • This recognition confirms the commercial's lasting impact, highlighting Jeep's strong brand legacy and commitment to innovation across diverse vehicle technologies and customer programs.
