Nespresso: advert-body-2 by McCann
- Location:
George Clooney steps out of the big screen, literally, in his latest quest to find a good cup of Nespresso as its brand ambassador, and he does so despite the protestations of his on-screen queen, Natalie Dormer.
The new spot for the coffee brand, ‘The Quest,’ finds Clooney suited in full armor, having just slayed a dragon as he comes to meet the queen, played by Dormer. As she asks what he desires for saving the kingdom, he looks out at the audience, then steps off the screen into the theater, to a bewildered and slightly miffed queen.
As the familiar strains of Peter Gabriel’s ‘Solsbury Hill’ play, Clooney sets off on his coffee quest. He’s seen coming out of a subway stop, with a billboard of himself drinking Nespresso, then wandering the streets, riding double-decker tour buses and finally finding a Nespresso shot to sate his desire.
Clooney and Dormer are featured in the largest global Nespresso campaign to date, launching in more than 30 countries.
