Snickers is coming back to the Super Bowl this year with a campaign featuring actor Adam Driver. This will be the brand’s sixth appearance — and third consecutive year — as a Super Bowl advertiser. The brand dropped four teaser ads yesterday, all pointing to Driver as the star of its campaign without the “Star Wars” actor actually appearing in the spots. Three of the teaser ads include a cutout of Driver, and the fourth names him as the campaign’s star.

Twitter’s fledgling Vine video app got a nice boost yesterday when James Mangold, director of the upcoming The Wolverine, premiered six seconds of the film as a Vine video. It seems to be the first time a major motion picture has used Vine to premiere film footage, bypassing the traditional release of a full-length trailer. That trailer isn’t due to premiere until tomorrow, giving Vine a two-day advance window. Mangold coined the term “tweaser” to describe the six-second video in a tweet that’s now been retweeted more than a thousand times and favorited more than 250 times. The tweaser. vine.co/v/bDExaiMjJ1F — James Mangold (@mang0ld) March 25, 2013   The Wolverine’s official Twitter account also posted the Vine video, and that tweet has had an additional 550+ retweets and 130+ favorites so far.
