Ben Affleck Launches His Music Career In A Super Bowl Ad For Dunkin – To The Dismay Of J-Lo, Fat Joe, And Jack Harlow

Ben Affleck Super Bowl Commerical 2024 — Dunkin

Ben Affleck is trying his hand at being a pop star. The Air actor has let the “bored man in the world” headline get to him. To get his feet wet in the industry, Affleck didn’t have to travel far, given that his wife is pop music star Jennifer Lopez.

But as his “voice of reason,” Jack Harlow attempts to stop him from crashing Lopez’s studio session. However, as the Dunkin Super Bowl LVIII commercial shows, Affleck is too far gone. As Affleck interrupts what appears to be Lopez’s time in the office, working on This Is Me…Now, he’s met with hilarious stares of disapproval from Fat Joe, Matt Damon, and more. But Tom Brady approves.

Ultimately, the bulldozing didn’t work out in his favor, but Affleck isn’t going to give up without a fight.

So far, Lopez has shared two records from the forthcoming project, including the title track and “Can’t Get Enough” featuring Latto. Although Affleck hasn’t made an appearance on either, there are still eleven tracks to come from the body of work. Who knows, maybe Affleck made the final cut.

Watch Dunkin’s full commercial below.

Chill. We’re naming a drink after them.

Jack Harlow Serves As Ben Affleck’s ‘Voice Of Reason’ In Their Dunkin’ Super Bowl Commercial Teaser

February 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Super Bowl LVIII is this Sunday (February 11). You will have to tune into the big game to catch Usher’s highly-anticipated halftime performance. But as far as advertisers are concerned, they have no problem spoiling their forthcoming commercials. So far, the public has been treated to Ice Spice’s upcoming cameo. Yesterday (February 8), Dunkin previewed their ad slot starring “Lovin’ On Me” rapper Jack Harlow and Ben Affleck.

In the teaser, Affleck, a longtime Dunkin’ lover, battles with his late-night craves. As Affleck and Harlow sit in their car in what appears to be a Dunkin’ parking lot, the two verbally spar about right and wrong. The actor needs to be pulled in from the temptations. Unfortunately, Harlow isn’t there to be the “voice of reason,” at least not in what Affleck needs. Instead, Harlow pushes Affleck closer to his Dunkin’ fix. You will have to tune into the Super Bowl to see how the dilemma ends for Affleck.

This isn’t Affleck’s first time appearing in a Dunkin’ campaign. The Air actor also made a cameo in Ice Spice’s commercial for her limited signature drink, his wife, and singer Jennifer Lopez’s drive-thru segment with the company.

Watch the teaser clip above.

Ice Spice Teams Up With Ben Affleck To Promote Her Dunkin’ Donuts Collab

September 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Ice Spice added a Boston legend to her efforts to promote her new collab with Dunkin’ Donuts. The first ad for the Ice Spice Munchkins Drink dropped during the VMAs on September 12. In something of a meta advertisement, Spice and certified Boston Boy Ben Affleck try to come up with names for her signature drink. It’s a fun little spot with Affleck turning his Southie accent up to 11 while an unimpressed Spice serves as his straight woman.

The promotion has been on the radar for a while now but the ad spot was the first official debut of the promotion, which will hit stores on September 13. “Pumpkin spice season has gotten a bit predictable lately, so we sought help from our friends Ben Affleck and Ice Spice to create a new pumpkin obsession that only Dunkin’ can offer. The result? The collaboration you never knew you needed: Pumpkin Munchkins and Frozen Dunkin’ Coffee, blended together to create the Ice Spice Munchkins Drink. It’s fun, it’s delicious, and it’s not your ordinary pumpkin drink,” Dunkin’ Donut’s CMO Jill McVicar Nelson told Food & Wine.

What Is Ice Spice’s Drink At Dunkin’ Donuts?

The Ice Spice Munchkins Drink, available September 13, is a frozen coffee blended with pumpkin munchkins and topped with whipped cream and caramel drizzle. “The pumpkin-forward flavor appeals to those early bird pumpkin aficionados, regardless of the season’s official start. With its frozen base, it’s the perfect go-to for those eager to embrace the pumpkin wave ahead of schedule,” Dunkin’ said of the product in a press release.

Spice also released a statement to promote the drink. “I’ve always been a Dunkin’ girl. Collaborating with Dunkin’ and Ben Affleck on this spot was a dream. The drink has a fun twist, a little something in the name for my fans, too. I can’t wait for everyone to try it,” she said. The Ice Spice Munchkins Drink is available from September 13 for a limited time and while supplies last.

Ice Spice And Ben Affleck Team Up For A Brainstorming Session In An Ad Announcing The Rapper’s New Dunkin’ Collab

September 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Sometimes, an artist is just a perfect fit for a brand collaboration. Ice Spice now finds herself in such a situation: Her performing name sounds like a tasty frozen drink and her fan base is known as the Munchkins, which makes her an ideal fit for Dunkin’. She teased a link-up with the coffee and donut chain earlier this week, and now all has been revealed.

A new Dunkin’ ad starring Ice Spice and Ben Affleck just aired during the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards tonight (September 12). In the commercial, Affleck and Ice Spice discuss how they’re going to come up with a name for a new Dunkin’ drink based on the rapper, but it all seems pretty obvious to Ice Spice.

A press release notes the beverage, dubbed the Ice Spice Munchkins Drink, “blends its smooth, creamy Frozen Coffee with Pumpkin MUNCHKINS Donut Hole Treats, topped with whipped cream and caramel drizzle.” The beverage will be available at Dunkin’ locations starting on September 13.

Ice Spice said in the release, “I’ve always been a Dunkin’ girl! Collaborating with Dunkin’ and Ben Affleck on this spot was a dream. The drink has a fun twist, a little something in the name for my fans, too. I can’t wait for everyone to try it.”

Jill McVicar Nelson, Chief Marketing Officer at Dunkin’, also noted, “Pumpkin spice season has gotten a bit predictable lately, so we sought help from our friends Ben Affleck and Ice Spice to create a new pumpkin obsession that only Dunkin’ can offer. The result? The collaboration you never knew you needed: Pumpkin Munchkins and Frozen Dunkin’ Coffee, blended together to create the Ice Spice MUNCHKINS Drink.

PUMA and Dunkin’ have teamed up to create a special collaboration inspired by America’s favorite iced coffee, which includes two limited-edition footwear versions.

Dunkin’ Donuts Ice Coffee Day was developed to offer delight to children in local hospitals around the United States. To commemorate the occasion, the companies have donated PUMA x Dunkin’ sneaker models to hospitals across the country.
