SINGAPORE, 6 June 2026 - Nike Football is rewriting the playbook this summer. Ahead of the highly anticipated global football tournament in North America, the Swoosh has officially dropped its blockbuster “Rip the Script” World Cup campaign film—a star-studded cultural moment that brings together the biggest names in sports, music, and entertainment.To bring this global universe to life locally, Nike has partnered with Singapore's premier football retailer, Weston Corp, to launch a massive, immersive pop-up experience right in the heart of Orchard Road at Wisma Atria.
Running from 5 June to 19 July 2026, the activation serves as the ultimate local destination where pinnacle on-pitch innovation meets authentic block culture.
What is “Rip the Script”? Nike’s Call to Instinctive Football
At its core, “Rip the Script” is Nike’s rallying cry for football lovers everywhere to ditch rigid playbooks and embrace attacking, creative, instinctive, and joyful football. The campaign serves as a powerful reminder that the beautiful game is at its absolute best when players trust their gut, take fearless risks, and express themselves without overthinking.
Instead of a standard one-off commercial, Nike has designed “Rip the Script” to act as an ongoing doorway into the Nike Football universe. Throughout the summer tournament, fans can expect a steady drumbeat of Easter egg–packed content, unexpected casting choices, and overlapping subplots that continuously invite creators and players directly into the narrative.
A Culture-Defining Cast: From Mbappé to LISA
The "Rip the Script" film boasts an unprecedented lineup that highlights football’s massive influence far beyond the pitch. The powerhouse cast features:
Current Icons: Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland, Vini Jr., and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Legends of the Game: Eric Cantona, Ronaldinho, Zlatan Ibrahimović, Didier Drogba, and Jorge Campos.
Global Pop Culture Heavyweights: LeBron James, Travis Scott, Kim Kardashian, LISA, Ted Lasso, Kate Scott, Channing Tatum, and Young Miko.
Step Into the Universe: The Wisma Atria Pop-Up Experience
Singaporean fans don't just have to watch the film; they can step directly into the Nike Football universe at Wisma Atria (#02-35 to 39). Occupying one of Orchard Road's most iconic mall fronts, the space translates Nike's love for the game into a highly tangible, localized expression of football culture.
The pop-up houses one of Singapore’s most extensive football assortments, engineered for both serious athletes and streetwear enthusiasts:
The Jersey as a Statement Piece: A curated showcase tracing how football kits have evolved from matchwear into symbols of identity, pride, nostalgia, and modern streetwear. Visitors can shop the latest national team kits and new-season jerseys.
Performance & Boot Innovation: Direct access to Nike's pinnacle on-pitch boot drops and training apparel.
Content-Worthy Customisation: Exclusive stations where fans can personalise their jerseys and gear, creating an interactive space designed for the next wave of football culture creators.
The Weston Corp Legacy & The Launch of the Weston Cup
The collaboration heavily honours Weston Corp’s decades-long position as the bedrock of Singapore’s football community — a retail destination that has fueled matchday rituals for generations of local players and collectors.
Building on that shared legacy, the pop-up marks the official launch of the Weston Cup—a five-matchday, international-style tournament running from 8 June to 11 July 2026.
