AFLAC is a leading provider of insurance worldwide, well known for their award-winning AFLAC Duck television advertising campaign, introduced in 2000. Famous for his starring role in these commercials, the AFLAC Duck has taken the next step in his career by waddling his way to Hollywood, and his publicist, Laura Kane, couldn't be happier.

The alliance between Paramount Pictures and AFLAC marks the first ever marketing partnership between an insurance carrier and a film studio.

The Aflac spot's voiceover also plays on the title of the movie: "In a world where unfortunate events happen, it would be unfortunate not to have that insurance."

Kinda cute -- I saw this on TV this morning too.

I'm actually kind of tired of all these corporate movie tie-ins. I want to enjoy the film, not be distracted by some sort of obvious product placement.
