The multi-talented assassin 'Mrs. Smith', played
by Angelina Jolie in the new movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," chose the C-Class
station wagon from Mercedes-Benz. Jolie and Brad Pitt star in the title roles
in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," as a bored married couple who lead a perfectly ordinary
life in an upscale suburban neighbourhood. In reality, however, each of them
has a secret life unknown to the other: both work as highly-trained assassins
for competing agencies. One day each is issued a contract to kill the other,
and from that point on things start to get really exciting
The cooperation
between Mercedes-Benz and Twentieth Century Fox has proven to be a most
satisfying union for both parties. "Numerous successful feature films have
demonstrated that Mercedes-Benz vehicles are an ideal addition to a movie's
cast," says Dr. Ferdinand Froning, responsible for Product Placement at
DaimlerChrysler. "In "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," the C-Class will shine. The station
wagon perfectly represents the 'Mrs. Smith' character: Both are cultivated
and powerfully dynamic. Moreover, the design and elegance of the vehicle
ideally correspond to Mrs. Smith's confident nature."
"Mr. and Mrs. Smith" opens in the U.S. on June 10. |
