As an official partner of the 86th Academy Awards, Pepsi will celebrate the Oscar night with its latest 60-second creative titled “Mini Hollywood,” starring 1996 Best Supporting Actor Oscar winner Cuba Gooding Jr.

The creative will debut on Sunday, March 2, during the Oscars telecast starting at 7:00 PM ET on ABC.

Created by Mekanism, the 60-second ad celebrates some of the best mini moments of cinema and the impact they have made on pop culture.

Much like a mini can of Pepsi, the mini quotes featured in the creative illustrate that it only takes that one line in a great film to bring back the joy and excitement of the entire film and its emotional appeal.

Pepsi mini cans parallel the storyline by demonstrating that sometimes a 7.5-ounce of Pepsi is just the right amount of satisfaction, as big things and the full Pepsi experience can come in smaller sizes.

To bring this concept to life, Pepsi believes, there is no more recognizable mini quote than 1996 Best Supporting Actor Oscar winner Cuba Gooding Jr. and his famous line from his role in Jerry Maguire: “Show me the money!”

This memorable line not only has become part of pop culture vernacular but also brings back the essence of the movie, similarly to how a mini can of Pepsi unlocks the same epic satisfaction, says the company.

The Wizard of Oz: “I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.”

When Harry Met Sally: “I’ll have what she’s having.”

Titanic: “I’m King of the World.”
