Watch Gal Gadot and Jason Statham Destroy A Restaurant Full of Bad Guys In Action-Packed Super Bowl Ad
Wow.
If this Gal Gadot and Jason Statham mini-action flick is a preview of how good this year’s Super Bowl commercial breaks could be, we’ll be there for the duration.
In this spot for website builder Wix.com Gadot and Statham are having a pleasant night out with separate dates at a tony restaurant when they spot bad guys filing in. They launch into action, and it’s exactly as badass as you might hope.
It’s no surprise the spot is so effective — as AdWeek reported, it was directed by Louis Leterrier, who has a killer action pedigree. He’s directed Statham in his ass-kicking Transporter films and big flicks like The Incredible Hulk and Clash of the Titans.
It may seem like an oddball choice for a company promoting its free website building service, but it’s so much fun it’s bound to be remembered after the game is over. It also reminds us that both Gadot and Statham do this kind of thing very well, and perhaps ought to team up and do it in a movie-length format sometime.
