adidas releases its 'family reunion' film ahead of FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022

Ahead of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, adidas has unveiled the next chapter of its ‘Impossible is Nothing’ story with its global football family.

The brand has kicked off a month-long campaign with a Family Reunion featuring Lionel Messi, Karim Benzema, Achraf Hakimi, Son Heung-Min, Jude Bellingham, Pedro ‘Pedri’ González López, Serge Gnabry and Stormzy. 

Channelling the special essence of the tournament, it celebrates the unified joy of football which brings together players and fans from all over the world.

With a selection of the world’s greatest football stars unexpectedly reuniting and displaying their excitement and unique pre-tournament preparations, the film is inspired by the attitude that when football is everything, Impossible is Nothing.  

Also featuring and narrated by football superfan Stormzy, the film combines football culture, world cup nostalgia and unique player personalities – all with a shared love for the game. Designed to be watched again and again, each scene features subtle nods to memorable moments, players and places to help build anticipation for the endless possibilities of the month ahead. These include framed family photos, fridge magnets, postcards, cross stitch hangings plus so much more.

Florian Alt, VP Global Brand Comms at adidas, said, “There is a rare moment, once every couple of years, at the beginning of the World Cup when it truly feels like impossible is nothing. A time when players and fans come together united by the belief that they will bring the trophy home.” 

“During the next month we’ll see new players break on to the scene, an underdog beat the odds, unbelievable goals and widespread celebrations taking place across the globe. It’s precisely that spirit that our campaign hopes to inspire in fans around the world.” 

The Family Reunion film launched today and it brings together Morocco right back Achraf Hakimi, Argentina forward Lionel Messi, France striker Karim Benzema, Spain midfielder Pedro ‘Pedri’ González López, South Korea left winger Son Heung-min, England midfielder Jude Bellingham, German winger Serge Gnabry and British musician Stormzy, as well as faces from adidas’ wider footballing family.
