James Franco puts on a serious face for Gucci

By admin on August 20th, 2008

After Ewan McGregor for Davidoff and Justin Timberlake for Givenchy James Franco joins the latest ranks of celebs advertising male scents.
It’s ve-ery slick and deadpan, the black & white cinematography and deep voiceover are a million miles away from Franco’s early beginnings on Freaks and Geeks. The track is a Brian Ferry cover of Slave to Love done by the uber fashionista Roisin Murphy.

Update: Ewan McGregor for Davidoff

By Will Reid on February 26th, 2008

A few weeks ago, I posted on the first pics from Ewan McGregor’s campaign for Davidoff’s ‘Adventure’ fragrance. So when this TV advert rudely interrupted my usual Sunday morning T4 routine, I was surprised to realise what it was. Unlike most luxury label adverts, this little film is subtle, succinct and pretty spectacular. It focuses around McGregor’s monologue on the usual blend of journey, travel, enlightenment and charitable experience but it is the stunning visuals which draws the viewer in.

I am beginning to think that this may be a trend in advertising; look at Louis Vuitton’s latest TV feature with wide-eyed travellers roaming the world in LV-labelled luggage. As I said before, McGregor is a relatable star and a man’s man- he’s not airbrushed or entourage-followed and this campaign only furthers my belief in Davidoff’s reinvention as a modern brand for the modern male.

See after the jump for Ewan’s latest televisual adventure (see what I did there?!)

Ewan McGregor for Davidoff ‘Adventure.’

By Will Reid on February 11th, 2008

Davidoff20adventure_2 The first images of Ewan McGregor for Davidoff have managed to sneak their way onto my computer screen and so far they look very promising- and very Ewan. The nomadic scarf and excess facial hair along with that motorbike hovering in the background are pure ‘Long Way Down’ and prefect for the new fragrance, ‘Adventure.’ Ewan, a celebrity who has tried to escape the limelight, suprised some by agreeing to star in the fragrance campaign but he says that "the concept of the films for Adventure was about a guy travelling on a motorcycle and that seemed to be right". No doubt the choice of Ewan as model will boost sales and attract the attention of both those looking for a hero and a heart-throb.

Lost’s Matthew Fox is the tear-free face of L’Oreal Men Expert

This may be old news, but over the weekend I saw two adverts starring guys from Lost. Cool Water are using Josh Holloway – aka Sawyer – as their swimming hunk in their latest ad, while, as you’ll see after the jump, Matthew Fox is fronting the new L’Oreal Men Expert ad.

Now, when I started watching Lost, my first thought on seeing Mr. Fox was "Hey! That’s the guy from Party Of Five who, like his brother Bailey, cried in EVERY SINGLE EPISODE." If you never saw Party Of Five you may think I’m exaggerating a touch. I’m not. Ask anyone. And then whaddya know, he joins Lost and before you know it the "crying while trying not to cry" face is back on our screens every week. And providing plenty of opportunities for humour.
