SHOWTIME ME THE MONEY! REEBOK AD TO RUN IN "JERRY MAGUIRE"
Published December 8, 1997
When TriStar's "Jerry Maguire" appears on Showtime next
month, it will be 47 seconds longer than it was in theatres,
according to the AP. The film will now end with a fictional
Reebok commercial that Writer-Director Cameron Crowe had
originally edited out. While "nobody is saying why the
commercial is back," it was the "core complaint of a product-
placement lawsuit" filed by Reebok against Sony's TriStar
Pictures, which was settled in September. Reebok and
TriStar, which confirmed last week that a new version of
"Jerry Maguire" will be broadcast on January 17, both refused
to discuss the deal. It was "unclear" whether Crowe had
approved the change (AP/Baltimore SUN, 12/7).
