Lou Arbetter, PepsiCo's senior director of Marketing commented about the scene in the film where a Pepsi Perfect is delivered to Michael J.

"We're fans of this popular trilogy, and just generally, if you work at Pepsi you're fans of pop culture. The brand has made its mark in pop culture frankly since Michael Jacksonmoonwalked. We've been dancing in and around pop culture for a while," Arbetter added. "So we look at this as another opportunity to have a little bit of fun."
