RIP THE SCRIPT

No script.
Just brilliant football.
World Cup 2026



“Rip the Script” is Nike’s rallying cry for football lovers everywhere to ditch the playbook and embrace attacking, creative, instinctive and joyful football — serving as a reminder that the game is at its best when players trust their gut.

The campaign brings together some of the biggest names in football today, including Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and Vini Jr. It also features football icons such as Eric Cantona, Ronaldinho, Zlatan Ibrahimović, Didier Drogba and Jorge Campos, alongside cameos from figures across sport and culture, including LeBron James, Travis Scott, Kim Kardashian, Ted Lasso, Kate Scott, Channing Tatum, Young Miko and LISA. Together, the cast reflects both the depth of Nike’s connection to football and the game’s influence beyond the pitch.
