“The OREO team has created one of the most integrated and innovative Transformers partner campaigns for the movie franchise to date,” commented LeeAnne Stables, Executive Vice President of Worldwide Marketing Partnerships at Paramount Pictures. “We were fortunate to have Michael Bay dedicate the time, while still in production on ‘Transformers: Age of Extinction,’ to personally direct the new OREO television campaign, which Transformers movie fans around the world will no doubt love to see.”

Directed by Bay, in collaboration with ad agency The Martin Agency, the spot shows how an OREO cookie provides a moment of support as the giant Transformers robot carries on in the fight for good.
