MAZDA LAUNCHES THE ALL-NEW CX-5 WITH A FIVE-FILM CAMPAIGN INSPIRED BY HOLLYWOOD GENRES

Mazda's campaign features five original short films inspired by iconic genres and supports emerging filmmakers through the Academy Gold mentorship program.

  • During the Oscars broadcast, Mazda unveiled the '5 Sides of the All-New CX-5' trailer on Sunday, March 15, 2026, on ABC and Hulu to introduce the 2026 CX-5 and build excitement for April films.
  • To build excitement, Mazda partnered with AMPAS and Disney, including a philanthropic mentorship via the Academy Gold program, to support emerging filmmakers.
  • Across platforms, the campaign uses five films directed by Paul Hunter, shot by Hoyte Van Hoytema, starring Jessamie Waldon Day, and extends to TikTok Pulse, Hulu Takeover, and four social creatives from Disney CreativeWorks.
  • More Oscars ad units were sold, and brands are starting brainstorms earlier to connect with IP and aim for impact beyond 30 seconds, Campbell noted, with live-event enthusiasm shaping 2027 planning for the 99th Oscars.
  • Full slate debuts in early April, with Mazda rolling out the campaign after the Oscars as an Oscar Silver Sponsor aligned with Disney's 'Oscars Everywhere' strategy.
