LITTLETON, Colo., Sept. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Boost Mobile is partnering with Liquid Death to take on Boost's larger wireless industry competitors. For too long, the biggest carriers have misled consumers with hidden fees, confusing contracts, and routine price hikes passed off as business as usual. Verizon's price increase that went into effect yesterday is just the latest example of this playbook. Boost Mobile exists to break that cycle. With transparent, no-contract plans, customers pay only for what they truly need, saving hundreds each year while getting the service, clarity, and value they deserve.
Today, Boost Mobile is launching a new advertising campaign featuring Cellphone Bill, a new character created by Liquid Death and portrayed by The Righteous Gemstones actor and comedian Tony Cavalero, to wake people up and encourage them to evaluate their wireless plans.
Liquid Death stands out in its industry with unique packaging, a sustainability mission and unmistakable, entertainment-first marketing. Similarly, Boost Mobile is not afraid to call out the mess other nationwide carriers have created, starting with the traditional wireless service contract.
The Ad Campaign
The campaign launching today includes Boost Mobile's first advertisements featuring Cellphone Bill, the new character created by Liquid Death and played by Tony Cavalero. Cellphone Bill is a psycho luring unsuspecting victims and holding them captive with wireless contracts. He personifies the real horror: bloated, high-priced wireless service from the Big Three.
The Cellphone Bill campaign, which was also produced and shot by Liquid Death's internal production company Death Machine, highlights the need for people to break free from wireless plans that hold them captive for years. While most wireless carriers are raising prices, Boost Mobile is committed to providing high-value wireless service starting at just $25/mo. FOREVER, with no long-term contract and no price increases – no catch.
"This latest Boost Mobile ad campaign hits on our goal to communicate with customers that we offer transparency for the connectivity services they need and want, unlike the traditional wireless carrier," said Sean Lee, SVP of Consumer Product and Marketing at Boost Mobile. "It's been inspiring to work with Liquid Death to create the Cellphone Bill character and campaign. We've been big fans of their creative approach to connecting with audiences and knew they'd channel that same energy to reach our target audience."
"Few of us have glowing things to say about our wireless contract, which is why we created 'Cellphone Bill' as the personification of those horrors," said Dan Murphy, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Liquid Death. "This campaign brings Liquid Death creative to the wireless world for the first time, and we're excited to partner with Boost Mobile, a fellow disruptor, to do so."

"Many U.S. consumers are stuck in wireless contracts, financing new phones," said Lee. "Boost Mobile knows people are holding onto their phones longer than ever before. So, our BYOD "Escape Plan" for just $25/mo. FOREVER is a great option for consumers who are looking for transparent pricing with access to a leading nationwide network."
