King's Hawaiian had a licensing partnership with Illumination and Universal for Despicable Me 4, and theatrical was an untapped channel for Pretzel Bites. With one of the summer's biggest animated films as the vehicle, there was an opportunity to put the product in front of millions of moviegoers nationwide at the exact moment they were looking for something to snack on.
