This playful Nespresso ad finally brings its long-time brand ambassador -- George Clooney -- to North American audiences. Clooney has been involved with the brand for nine years, in large part due to Nespresso's commitment to sustainability.
In a vastly different role, Clooney and his pint-sized pal Danny Devito play themselves in this fictionalized movie narrative. After Devito sees Clooney drinking Nespresso, he soon asks him to train him in the art of good taste. The rest of the ad shows the twosome roaming around fancy restaurants and art exhibits, until Clooney feels Devito is ready to drink the luxury coffee, which is branded as "a cup above." The Nespresso ad brings together the goofiness of these Hollywood friends with a memorable and theatrical storyline.
