Hollywood has been going crazy about artificial intelligence lately, especially after the sudden announcement of a virtual “actress.” Tilly Norwoodwhich had repercussions in the world of entertainment.
But let it go Ryan Reynolds take that conversation and turn it into something totally unexpected and fun for Mint Mobile.
Reynolds’ new commercial for Mint’s affordable 5G home internet pokes fun at the AI hype by finding and introducing audiences to the real Natalie “Tilly” Norwood, a real, genuine human being.
“Everything about Mint Mobile seems unreal. And now we’re introducing 5G home Internet for $30 a month. Yes, that’s right! That’s why we invited Tilly Norwood, a real Mint customer, to help us announce it,” Reynolds says in the 30-second spot.
The advert leans into Reynolds’ trademark humor as he questions Tilly about her authenticity.
“You’re real, right?” he asks.
“Yes,” he replies.
“Not an AI-generated combination of actors?” Reynolds continues.
“I’m a combination of my parents,” Tilly deadpans.
The commercial ends with a clever voiceover reminding viewers that Mint Mobile’s new home internet deal is only available to “carbon-based organisms.”
Produced by Reynolds’ Maximum Effort production company, the commercial keeps things refreshingly analog.
