Drinking beer is almost patriotic on the 4th of July and with the nation reopening after the year from hell (thanks COVID-19), Budweiser has partnered with actor Bill Pullman to recreate his famous speech from the blockbuster alien invasion movie Independence Day.
On June 30th Budweiser released a digital film entitled “Go Fourth, America” which puts a modern-day spin on President Whitmore’s iconic speech that cleverly celebrates how far we’ve come in the fight against COVID-19.
In Budweiser’s film, Pullman brilliantly reprises his famous presidential role for the first time in 25 years, using his platform to encourage America to celebrate the Fourth of July holiday and come together once again to commemorate everything the people of America have overcome.

“I can’t imagine a better or more meaningful moment to reprise this iconic role than Independence Day this year,” said Pullman. “I am proud to partner with Budweiser on its continued efforts to promote COVID-19 vaccination awareness and education. While the world has overcome so much in the past year and a half, there is still more work to be done. I hope this film can serve as a beacon of hope and progress for our country and beyond.”
Earlier this month, Anheuser-Busch joined the White House’s efforts to meet President Biden’s goal of getting 70% of American adults partially vaccinated by July 4th.
And while the country is still working to achieve that milestone, the company is making good on its promise to reward the country for its vaccination progress by giving consumers “a round on us” this holiday weekend.
Beginning Friday, July 2nd, 12:00 PM ET through Monday, July 5th, 11:59 PM ET, adults 21+ can go to MyCooler.com/beer and upload a picture of you in your favorite place to grab a beer, whether with friends at your favorite local bar and restaurant, with family in your own backyard, or at a ballgame with colleagues.
