Ben Affleck's Super Bowl Ad for Dunkin' Brings Back the 90s Sitcom Feel
Ben Affleck's latest Super Bowl commercial for Dunkin' is a hilarious and unexpected twist on the 1997 drama 'Good Will Hunting'. The ad features a star-studded cast, including Jennifer Aniston, Tom Brady, Matt LeBlanc, Jason Alexander, Ted Danson, Alfonso Ribeiro, Jaleel White, and Jasmine Guy, all dressed up in 90s attire and reenacting a long-lost sitcom called 'Good Will Dunkin'.
The show cleverly references the original 'Good Will Hunting' script while also nodding to iconic 90s TV shows like 'Friends', 'Cheers', 'A Different World', 'Fresh Prince of Bel-Air', 'Seinfeld', and 'Family Matters'. The actors were de-aged using special effects techniques, but the entire spot was filmed on a real set, adding to the authenticity of the 90s nostalgia.
Dunkin' is celebrating its first advertisement for iced coffee, which debuted in 1995, by giving away 1.995 million free iced coffees of any size starting Monday, February 9. Customers can redeem the offer using the code 'GOODWILLDUNKIN' in the Dunkin' app. Additionally, Dunkin' will release a limited collection of vintage 90s apparel, all sourced from vintage shops in Boston, available for purchase at DunkinRunsOnMerch.com after the ad airs.
This isn't Affleck's first hilarious collaboration with Dunkin'. Since 2023, he's been part of a series of star-studded spots, including one featuring a musical group called the 'DunKings' and cameos by Jennifer Lopez, his former spouse. The ad's success and the cast's chemistry have made it a fan favorite, leaving viewers eagerly anticipating more from this unique partnership.
