This Samsung TV Advertisement Features an Ad Within an Ad
Laura McQuarrie — November 23, 2019 — Pop Culture
What seems to begin as a television advertisement for a QLED Samsung TV featuring Ryan Reynolds turns into an advertisement within an advertisement that comes in at under 45 seconds. In the ad, Reynolds begins by promoting his new movie, 6 Underground, emphasizing that people will want to see it on a QLED Samsung TV. Shortly after, a "a mid-roll ad" for Reynolds' own-brand Aviation Gin appears on the screen of the TV.
Of course, as Reynolds plays the role of a demanding celebrity, the ad is aware of itself the entire time and explains exactly what is happening, with the director clarifying: "You bought an ad for your gin, within an ad, for your movie within an ad, for Samsung TV?"
