Vozinha's selection is strategic, capitalizing on his remarkable performances and social media impact during the World Cup. His story and charisma resonated with a vast audience, making him an ideal figure for an international campaign targeting both football enthusiasts and Marvel fans. This collaboration is part of Sony's broader strategy to promote "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" by leveraging high-profile personalities to reach new demographics.

This initiative follows a previous campaign that featured Argentine captain Lionel Messi and actor Tom Holland, which generated significant buzz online by humorously combining sports and action. In that clip, Holland questions Messi, "Are you Messi?" before Spider-Man himself appears and poses the same question to the World Cup champion, adding an element of surprise and engagement for fans of both universes.
