Universal Pictures claims the top spot in spending with “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.”
The ad for the latest installment in the sci-fi franchise had an estimated media value of $11.93 million through Sunday for a single national ad airing on one network: NBC — during, yes, the Super Bowl. (Spend figures are based on estimates generated from Jan. 29 – Feb. 4. Estimates may be updated after the chart is posted as new information becomes available.) In fact, four out of our top five movie ads had Super Bowl airings.
“Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” also had the best iSpot Attention Index (140) in the ranking, getting 40% fewer interruptions than the average movie ad (interruptions include changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).
Behind it in second place: Universal Pictures’ “Skyscraper,” which saw two national ad airings across two networks, with an estimated media value of $8.07 million.
TV ad placements for Lucasfilm’s “Solo: A Star Wars Story” (EMV: $7.8 million), Columbia Pictures’ “Peter Rabbit” ($6.35 million) and Paramount Pictures’ “Mission: Impossible – Fallout” ($5.38 million) round out the chart.
