BriTANick Comedy Duo Spoofs Timothée Chalamet's 'Marty Supreme' Promo for 'Pizza Movie' on Hulu
Comedy duo BriTANick copied Timothée Chalamet's viral promotional stunt for his movie 'Marty Supreme' to promote their new Hulu film 'Pizza Movie.' The duo created a low-key version featuring stars Gaten Matarazzo and Sean Giambrone after seeing Chalamet's stunt atop the Sphere.
Comedy filmmaking duo BriTANick decided to mimic Timothée Chalamet's attention-grabbing promotional stunt for 'Marty Supreme' to market their own film. The pair created a much smaller-scale version featuring 'Stranger Things' star Gaten Matarazzo and Sean Giambrone.
Chalamet recently performed a stunt atop the Las Vegas Sphere that went viral on social media. BriTANick saw an opportunity to ride that wave of attention for their Hulu release 'Pizza Movie.'
BriTANick, made up of Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher, are known for their sketch comedy work. Their debut feature film is described as a surreal college drug comedy about two high roommates forced to make a dangerous journey. The movie draws inspiration from stoner comedies, Peter Jackson fantasy films, Looney Tunes cartoons, and the Coen Brothers.
'Pizza Movie' is now streaming on Hulu. The promotional stunt demonstrates how independent filmmakers are getting creative to break through the noise on crowded streaming platforms.
The spoof shows how viral movie marketing stunts quickly inspire copycats in Hollywood. It highlights the growing competition for attention on streaming platforms where movies can easily get lost without creative promotion.
Watch to see if other filmmakers copy viral marketing stunts for their own movie promotions.
