The selection of posters feature Will Ferrell, Ryan Reynolds, and Octavia Spencer, and indicate the film is rated PG-13. The account also confirms the type of film it is, stating in brackets "Yes, it's a musical."
The promotion of "Spirited" is much closer to the actual release date than earlier efforts. In December 2021, Reynolds took advantage of the Photos' Memories feature to show some images from the movie, almost a year before its release.
