Vince Vaughn spills the beans on working with Tom Brady in Super Bowl ad
In a surprising move, actor Vince Vaughn has stepped into the realm of commercials, joining forces with sports icons Tom Brady and Wayne Gretzky for a Super Bowl ad promoting the BetMGM gambling app. Vaughn, best known for his role in the hit film “Wedding Crashers,” admitted that while he has been approached for Super Bowl ads in the past, this particular opportunity with BetMGM felt like the perfect fit.
The ad itself showcases Vaughn’s comedic talent as he humorously points out that anyone can use BetMGM, except for retired NFL star Tom Brady, who has “won enough.” The commercial also features Vaughn sharing a meal with ice hockey legend Wayne Gretzky. Vaughn expressed his excitement for the collaboration, stating, “I love Las Vegas, obviously, and MGM. It just felt right. Tom and Wayne are amazing, so it was a lot of fun.”
Known for his memorable line, “Vegas, baby, Vegas!” in the 1996 film “Swingers,” Vaughn has further solidified his connection to the city by becoming the face of Caesars iGaming and Casino platforms. Last year, it was announced that Vaughn would star in “Easy Waltz,” a film directed by “True Detective” creator Nic Pizzolatto, where he portrays a struggling Vegas entertainer.
While Vaughn didn’t reveal his bet for either the San Francisco 49ers or the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl, he did show support for Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, stating, “You have to root for love. You’re not a hater, come on.”
