Big Bang Theory star in Hyundai Super Bowl ad
The theme for the Hyundai Elantra Super Bowl commercial is 'Nice' and actor Johnny Galecki is almost typecast in it, after playing nice guys on both The Big Bang Theory (Leonard) and Roseanne (David).
In the footage, directed by Jim Jenkins for Innocean, Galecki tries to chat up a woman who pulls up beside him in a matching Elantra, pointing out all the nice features of the car -- and getting some nice brush-offs in return.
He keeps giving it a shot, with little success. There's a bit of action thrown in to spice things up, and a dry cameo from comedian Richard Lewis in the back seat.
"I've always loved Super Bowl ads - the commercials during the game are always the highlight for me," Galecki said in a statement. "In this Hyundai spot, there's a car chase, there's explosions, and even a car jump - it's exciting, cinematic and filled with humor. I can't wait for everyone to see it!"
