Sabrina Carpenter Serves Her Best Johnnie Walker Stride In New Damien Chazelle-Directed Short
Sabrina Carpenter is a cool sip of whisky in her latest spot for Johnnie Walker. The Man’s Best Friend hitmaker channels the Scotch label’s famed striding-man mascot in a new short directed by Oscar winner Damien Chazelle (Whiplash, La La Land, Babylon).

The minute-long clip, titled Keep Walking, consists mostly of wide shots showing Carpenter strolling through a palatial nightclub, echoing the form of the figure who appears on every Johnnie Walker bottle. According to the brand, Chazelle drew inspiration from the “effortless cool and rebellious spirit of French New Wave cinema,” the auteur-led movement that also influenced other famed contemporary filmmakers including Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, and Wes Anderson.
“Working with Johnnie Walker and Damien was such a creative adventure,” Carpenter said in a prepared statement. “We wanted to create a true cinematic experience that was playful, unexpected, and full of personality. I’m a longtime fan of Damien’s work, so it was exciting to bring this visual world to life alongside him. This film felt like the perfect way to tell the Keep Walking story and capture the energy of this next chapter.”

It’s perhaps the most artistic effort born from Carpenter’s multi-year partnership with the whisky maker, which kicked off in 2025 with the arrival of a signature “Go Go Highball” cocktail, made with ginger ale, cherry juice, and Johnnie Walker Black Label. The “Espresso” singer was also behind that same bottle’s redesign, featuring “Sabrina blue” accents, playful dog motifs, and her autograph.
