Olivier Francois, Stellantis' global chief marketing officer, remarked, "When the 'Twister' film was first released in 1996, our hero was behind the wheel of a Ram 2500 truck. When we learned that Universal Pictures was filming ‘Twisters,’ there was no doubt that a Ram truck would again appear as the movie's heroic vehicle."

The campaign video features Glen Powell, who stars in "Twisters" and is also a Ram truck owner. Powell stated, "As a Ram truck owner myself, it has been a blast to work with a brand that understands pushing boundaries and embracing a challenge."

"Answer Your Calling" is the third installment in Ram Truck’s evolving advertising campaigns. It highlights powerful Ram trucks helping the film’s characters chase and evade storms. The video features the new 2025 Ram 1500 RHO and other off-road models like Power Wagon, Rebel, and Warlock.
