Ali G Urges Fans to Pirate New Movie
24 Oct
Summary
- Ali G asked fans to film and upload his new movie.
- The actor requested viewers share it online instead of buying tickets.
- The film, Ali G: Who Iz I?, is a sequel to Ali G Indahouse.
Sacha Baron Cohen, reprising his iconic Ali G persona, has launched an unusual promotional campaign for his latest film, "Ali G: Who Iz I?" In a newly shared video, Cohen, as Ali G, directly encouraged fans to record the movie in theaters and upload it to YouTube, explicitly stating, "Sharing is caring." This tactic suggests viewers should bypass purchasing tickets.
This stunt follows a previous promotional activity where Cohen, as Borat, staged a mock "boycott" of the film. "Ali G: Who Iz I?" serves as a sequel to the 2002 comedy "Ali G Indahouse." The plot follows Ali G's return to America to regain past fame after discovering his girlfriend is pregnant.
The movie also features Morgana Robinson as Ali G's girlfriend, Julie. With a 50% Tomatometer score from 20 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, "Ali G: Who Iz I?" is currently playing in theaters.
