The Beckhams seemed to have a great time as they held hands and danced in a circle to Amy Winehouse's iconic number "Valerie."

Following the campaign premiere, it will be shown in theaters and streaming platforms including Amazon Prime, Netflix, Max, Paramount Plus, and Sky TV. Still images will appear on billboards in high-traffic locations globally as well as in Boss stores and other retailers around the world.

The company will also install Boss One Bodywear vending machines at key locations in the U.S. and Europe, selling hero products from the collection, and there will also be more than 100 pop-ups created worldwide.

Daniel Grieder, chief executive officer of Hugo Boss, said when the athlete was presented with the concept for the underwear campaign, "he was immediately convinced."

While Boss has done underwear shoots in the past, Grieder said this is its first real campaign for the category. It also marks the first time it is testing the vending machine concept, which he referred to as "more a marketing tool than a selling tool."
