Funny Or Die Fights The ‘Snackpocalypse’ With Help From The First Lady

Funny or Die just can’t get enough of the Obamas. The humor website’s collaboration with the President has been one of the most-shared videos of the year, and it has now teamed up with the First Lady, too. Michelle Obama has a brief cameo in “Snackpocalypse“, a fake trailer starring Chloe Grace Moretz and Tyler Posey.

While the First Lady makes only a brief appearance in the video, “Snackpocalypse” is very much in line with the healthy eating campaign that has defined her time in office. Moretz plays a girl who stays committed to fruits and vegetables even as a junk food binge led by class president Clark Duke

turns an entire university into zombies. Moretz’s only ally is Posey’s character, whose tendency to speak only in post-apocalyptic movie cliches is mocked throughout the three-and-a-half minute trailer.

The video is a clever branded tie-in for The First Lady’s Let’s Move! program. Her husband used Funny or Die as a promotional tool, too; his appearance with Zach Galifianakis on Between Two Ferns supported the Get Covered campaign to great effect. We can only assume that Sasha and Malia are up next.
