Remember that Battlefield 6 trailer that made fun of Call of Duty's the constant need for celebrity cameos in your marketing? This Black Opera 7 The trailer goes a long way to proving their point.
BO7 launch trailer brings back Peter Stormare as “The Substitute”, aka the guy who replaces you at work so you can stay home and play CoD. But this time it was joined by a very interesting selection of celebrity cameos that fans loved.

First of all we have Love Island Huda Mustafa from season seven (“the first villain in space”),Ho continued on the path of her lucrative influencer career even after losing the show in the finale. And honestly? Good for her. But there is Jake Paul, a short video creator who is terrorizing the world as a highly selective boxer.
In the video, the crew is sent into space to populate Mars to “populate a Mars colony that will form the basis of humanity's future,” and these two are humanity's best and brightest to do the job. The surrogate takes the place of the real spaceship pilot, which brings laughs and gives us the best part of the video when he “accidentally” throws Paul into space.
That's when the Substitute summons new Substitutes to Earth, who are comedian Nikki Glaser and beloved actor Terry Crews, the latter of whom CoD fans seem to really enjoy the video (and are hoping to see him as the cinematographer). And now it appears that Crews and Glazer will temporarily take Stormare's place as he attempts to travel through space with Huda. Have fun, buddy.
I've never been a big fan of gratuitous celebrity cameos in these films. CoD video, and for many this is not true and it seems proving BF6 dot. What does this whole video have to do with? BO7? Nothing at all, but I think you have the freedom to create something like this when everyone knows exactly what CoD presents its annual issues.
In previous years CoD Launch trailers featured celebrities like Robert Downey Jr., Kobe Bryant, Jonah Hill, Michael Phelps, and more cosplaying as soldiers and fighting each other. This one is completely different (probably for different reasons) and I don't understand it.
I'm actually quite optimistic and excited BO7 After playing the beta and its limited skill-based matchmaking coming to the game on day one, I'm going to politely decide to forget this trailer exists and go online with fresh thoughts on November 14th.
