Did you know?!Facts and trivia about The Movie Out Here (2012)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- The Movie Out Here was made unusually: it had already received financing and promotion from Labatt before its screenplay was even completed.
- Twenty bars in Western Canada competed to become a filming location for The Movie Out Here, and fans voted by entering a code from a specially marked Kokanee coaster they received when ordering the beer.
- Kokanee's website let fans vote on video auditions for five minor roles in the film, choose the music for its soundtrack, submit props, and register as one of 3,500 people to be listed as a "fan" in the credits.
- The film was released during an NHL lockout that shortened the 2012-13 season and cut beer sales in Canada by 12%, forcing Kokanee to use new strategies to promote its products.
- The Movie Out Here was conceived by staff of the advertising agency Grip Limited and was the first foray into branded content for both Grip and Labatt.
