AT&T is sharing a little love as we close out a trying 2020 and look forward to the New Year with hope.
The new creative features people from all walks of life coming together singing the 1969 hit “Put a Little Love in Your Heart,” including a few notable vocal cameos from AT&T’s well-loved Lily character, and none-other than LeBron James.
The heartfelt track serves as a much-needed anthem for unity and compassion as we all continue to be socially distant.
Titled “A Little Love,” the spot was created with creative agency partner BBDO LA and directed by The Corner Shop’s Peter Thwaites.

This trailer promotes Charge Around The Globe, a new adventure docuseries that follows record-breaking traveler Lexie Limitless on an extraordinary journey to circumnavigate the globe in an electric vehicle--traveling over 30,000 kilometers across six continents, all in pursuit of one world record. The three-part series on Prime Video in the U.K. showcases the capabilities of modern electric vehicles while immersing viewers in the numerous experiences and challenges Lexie encounters throughout her journey. As she navigates various challenges throughout her trip, Charge Around the Globe serves as a testament to the spirit of exploration. Ford, Wieden+Kennedy London and WracK teamed on the series.

Along the way, she meets extraordinary people, navigates difficult terrains, and faces the challenges of a constantly evolving charging infrastructure that puts her to the test.
“Charge Around The Globe has been the ultimate test drive for our new electric Ford Explorer. We took on every kind of weather and road condition and dealt with just about every charging scenario. The journey embodies the true... Read More
