Drenched in charming 1960s retro-futurism, the campaign oozes nostalgia and innovation. From character styling and home features to the sonic landscape and transitions, every detail is crafted with care. Enter Jack West, a fictional Zillow Partner Agent who breaks the fourth wall to guide viewers through The Baxter Building “the home of tomorrow.” In a nod to Zillow’s virtual tour capabilities, West highlights era-defining amenities like colour TVs, panoramic views, a sunken conversation pit, an indoor barbecue, and ample space ideal for everything from scientific experiments to cosmic adventures.
The campaign cleverly integrates character cameos like the Human Torch soaring past the iconic floor-to-ceiling windows. With direction from Farahani and cinematography by Jess Hall, alongside contributions from the film’s own art department, the Zillow spots authentically mirror a canonical Marvel short.
“I’ve been fortunate to help shape the worlds of some of Marvel’s most iconic films. With this spot for Zillow, we’ve crafted a narrative that offers a wealth of insights into the home of the Fantastic Four,” says Farahani. “We’ve also given fans a glimpse into the inner workings of Reed Richards’ innovative, architectural mind. I feel this spot will stand as a small but meaningful extension of the film’s story and world.”
