BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, is premiering its first online casino commercial featuring company brand ambassador Jamie Foxx. The 30-second spot entitled “Vegas Lights” showcases the relationship between the award-winning online casino and MGM Resorts International, with Foxx using the BetMGM mobile app to illuminate iconic Las Vegas experiences with each successive tap.

“BetMGM has been a phenomenal company to work with the past few years and creating this new commercial for their online casino was no exception. I love the way the spot turned out,” said Foxx.

“Vegas Lights” follows Foxx as he travels to several of MGM Resorts’ Las Vegas destinations including Bellagio, ARIA Resort & Casino and MGM Grand. The commercial emphasizes the connection between playing online and earning in-person rewards, such as show tickets and resort accommodations. Created by BetMGM’s award-winning agency of record, Highdive, the spot was directed by the award-winning duo, The Malloys, with Superprime, and shot with renowned cinematographer Jeff Cronenweth.

Casey Hurbis, Chief Marketing Officer, BetMGM, said: “Jamie Foxx is an extraordinary talent and a pivotal part of the way we showcase the best of BetMGM. This spot brilliantly captures BetMGM’s major differentiator of blending online and in-person casino experiences.”
