Coca Cola in the Movies
You’ve probably spotted our drinks on the big screen over the years, helping filmmakers around the world tell their stories. Often it's a quick appearance that helps to set a scene; sometimes Coca-Cola takes the spotlight.
Our drinks have been chosen by filmmakers to play a key role in some of the biggest Brit releases of recent years:
Bridget Jones Edge of Reason (2004) – The Coca-Cola Mega Sign in London’s Piccadilly Circus is seen conveying words of encouragement to Bridget as she sets about saving her relationship with Mark Darcy.
Shaun of the Dead (2004) – This 'romantic comedy with zombies' or 'rom-zom-com' from British pair Simon Pegg and Nick Frost used the lead character's move to Diet Coke to depict his new healthy lifestyle.
Street Dance 3D (2010) – The body-popping dancers back flipping out of the screen on this uptempo UK hit kept refreshed and energised with both Powerade and Coca-Cola.
We have also been part of some of the biggest movies of all time:
It's a Wonderful Life
George Bailey, the down-trodden protagonist of this classic festive favourite, works in a small town pharmacy. In line with Coke's beginnings in pharmacies across the States, the set features a Coca-Cola fountain and the screen is littered with Coke memorabilia such as stained glass lamp shades and Coca-Cola thermometers.

A Coke vending machine briefly takes centre stage when the main character needs to make a phone call to the President. As he instructs his sidekick to shoot the machine for its change, the sidekick replies that he will have to answer to The Coca-Cola Company.
